The GM of Canada papersork does document weather or not the cars came with spoilers!

This car only has one torsion spring in the trunk. I guess I have to bring my micrometer to see if it is the larger of the two. Even if both springs were missing, I should still be able to figure out if it came with spoilers.
Cars with the build date of 05D is the earliest I have seen with D80 on the trim tag. Warren

Warren,
My Douglass Yenko is an X11 D80 with O5D date also.
So it seems that prior to the mentioned dates, COPOs had spoilers but without trim tag designation.

BKH, in my second posting on this car, I mentioned I was going to check for hole in frame. The underside of trunklid has been painted brown, but still has original jacking instructions attached. I'll see if I can peel it back a little to see if original burgundy paint is underneath. Then if the lid is original to car I will see if Camaro emblem holes are present for a spoiler car.

Stefano, Factory spoiler cars whether a COPO, Z/28, SS, or just a plain Jane prior to 05D, wouldn't be coded on tag with D80, that I am aware of.

William, what surprises can you bring to light on this D80 subject? Warren

What took place, internally at GM to make this specific trim tag change?
