Looks like RS tail lts, but no Reverse lts in the lower valance....
It is odd that the spoiler is cut, and the ends moulded to the quarters, but the spoiler doesn't look like an original 68 piece either...looks a bit tall to me. Could be wrong...it happened once before. hehe

I did the tail lights 20 years ago. Just put in 2 red ones where the white should be. I bought the RS rev lights for the valance. It looks better with all 4 red. But motor went before I could install the rev lights. The tail lights were one red &amp; one white. The car was painted gold at one time over the maroon. Then primed sometime after. Bet it looked better gold then maroon. Plus the inter is black now. Was gold. The stickers are vintage ones &amp; all items that Motion would have installed if the car went to there shop. They have been on the car for over 25 years that I know of. If cars could talk ! I bet this one has a couple of good stories. I will keep digging.

Are there holes in the hood for the scoop to be bolted to the hood. If so, possible the 68 motion supercar club car sponsored by cars magazine. Look for anything that was a motion part, or evidence of parts being there. Roger

The spolier was bolted to the hood. I still have it. If you look at the picture of the hood. You can see the spoiler in the backround. Maybe there is something on the spoiler. Like a name or a part #. I really do not know what to look for that might be a Motion part. Or where I should look. There are some gauges that are not factory. I really have not looked at the car for over 20 years. I just uncovered it for some pictures. The hood on top of the car is a factory 68 SS B/B hood. I got at a swap meet 15 years ago. I will have to get air in the tires &amp; roll it out of the garage to look at it more. It is a bit cold now. I plan to drop the tank after the holidays. Wife wont let me near it. To much to do before Christmas. I can only hope I find the B/S. Thanks to everyone for all the help. Happy Holidays. Chris

That's an odd L88 scoop that goes on the hood. Most L88 style hood scoops were just the scoop area and not that much surrounding flat surface from what I've seen.
