The shapes of the openings on the back side are different and the date codes are in different places.

Can you be more specific about the openings? are all different? Where is the date code located on the 69?

I believe the luggage rack was a dealer add-on, so the decklid would have been the same.

This is off the top of my head, so it might not be exact and I can't remember the third 67 variation:

67 - no emblem holes
- with emblem holes
68 - spoiler access holes
69 - " "
- with tabs around outside
- no tabs

There was a great article in Muscle Car Review that showed the differences in the 3 '69 trunk lids. Brian Henderson provided the information for this article. If I remember correctly it was about restoration mistakes for '69 Camaros. I can try to dig up the article and scan it if anyone is interested.

Late 67 trunk lids did have spoiler access holes. I know July cars did and I believe June as well.
