Yea, I think the guy from pinks is a little off too. Overhuauling has the right idea with a chick.

Looking good so far.

I took this pic on a 1971 Z28 rearspoiler. Wouldn´t they line up better on a -71 ?

If the 3 piece spoiler on my 70 Z looked that good I would be very happy.

Anders,

That is close to the way mine looks now - after placement of shims and painstakingly adjusting the entire spoiler for best fit. What I get in return is a silght gap between the end cap and the quarter.

Tooling used on the First run of end caps were only designed by AO Smith for an initial 500 part run.

Phil,
the reason why I showed that pic was that I thought it COULD be a COPO-spoiler, that had been remowed from a -70 Z and put on this -71.
I didn´t get a chance to look under the hood, so I don´t know if this was an Antwerp car. A friend of mine had a -71 Antwerp-built Camaro that was fitted with the small -70 spoiler by the factory.
I´m still curious, is this a typical 1971 spoiler ?

What if someone was selling copo 9796 end caps on e-bay , How would you know? How exactly can anybody tell the differance from the first run of end caps that were made for copo cars as opposed to the end caps for the 71 cars & newer? Thanks Jeff
