Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Those 3 pc spoiler ends are NOT the correct 70-73 design, but the 74-??? 2nd design. You can see where they dont fit/look correct where meeting the qtr panel. The correct 70-73 came to more of a point. The center truck section was same on all 70-81 Camaro and not sure what year Firebirds.
PLEASE commucicate with ME, regarding all the misc leftover OEM parts you may have after building the drag car Thanks

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Ed, Sorry about that!
Didn't mean NMCA cars are junk cars, have been to many events some very beautiful cars. I just meant cutting up a not so nice car for a drag car. I guess its hard to tell what a cars like in pics!

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Is the emblem bolted on or just stuck on w/3m tape? If it's just 3m tape and the screw heads in the emblem are fake then I believe someone recently stuck on a new Berger emblem.

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
You can buy the stick-on emblem from Berger Chevrolet for $11 + S&H.
Please, PULLEASE let me know if it was screwed on, and you want to let it go.   Andy

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Chuck, Brian and Andy:
Thanks for your responses. I now know the spoiler is a later model type but I didn't think they were flat at the edge like this one. Regarding the emblem, it is stuck on and not screwed on. So, me and the Camaro are goin' racin'! I'm forever restoring my cars with correct parts, A.I.R., Gardner exhausts, etc. Over the years, I have collected a ton of miscellaneous stuff around like MSD devices, 12-bolts, transmissions, headers, exhausts, etc. that I am really excited to build something that runs and not worry about a single part being correct. It also gives me a reason to search racingjunk.com and use my trailer for something other than toting trailer queens. Nasblu: It is a pretty nice looking Camaro, that and the floor pans/sheetmetal/frame rails - caused me to buy it. While I have a ton of parts, paintwork is just getting too costly and I can't do it myself. So no harm - no foul. Thanks again for all of your input and I think the Berger badge will look tough out at the drags, Ed

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Ed it sounds like you have a great car and I wish you luck in the transformation into a race car. Trailer queens are nice to look at but race cars are fun to drive. Mark

Re: Before I cut this Camaro
Well said, Mark. Put an aluminium interior in it, don't scrimp on the roll cage, and drive it like you stole it!
