I think the lines of the car look better without the spoiler. Especially on the convertible.

 

personally I like the look of a spoiler on a coupe. convertible. NO

 

Put the spoiler back on the car, they look silly without one.

 

I say NO rear spoiler! I do however like the front spoiler on them.

 

Coupes without the spoiler just look strange to me. Yes, every car has one at shows, but there's a reason for that, they look good.

Convertibles I think look just fine without one.

 

Rear spoilers are like cowl hoods to me....everybody has one (well, most, and no offence to anyone)

I say, leave it off.

 

I somewhat agree. My '67 RS 427 has both cowl induction hood and spoiler, but my second '67 RS with a 327 will be without the cowl induction hood and rear spoiler for a cleaner look.

I love that shade of red, BTW.

 

There was a time when I would say that every Camaro should have a spoiler. That said my last 69 I had before my Z had the cowl hood, front spoiler and no rear spoiler. I had that car for thirteen years before I got stupid and sold it. I have put many a spoiler on and the last 67 I did I tried to talk the guy out of putting it on. The car realy does have good lines and do look good without. My Z came with one , so I am leaving it on. I say leave it off, see how it looks and if you don't like it then put it on.

 

Don't do anything crazy , Put it back on . LoL

x2 I have one on my 67 just looks better to me

 

Other cars have an integral "mini" spoiler as part of their original decklid design that enhances the bodyline flow very well. Spoilers look OK on Camaros but appear too much as an afterthought. I have one and don't hate it but don't love it. Some builders fab them and they are very subtle and an integral part of the body. I think the Camaro is lacking slightly in that area compared to other cars in regard to spoiler design.

 

Do what you want not what others want! After all, who are you building the car for?

 

I like my newest rendition of my car without the rear spoiler. However, I like it both ways.
That being said
I drove my 68 over 135k miles in the last 12 years, with a rear spoiler. Tons of thumbs up, daily.
I redid the entire car this winter/ spring, and took off the rear spoiler, all the rest is the same. I have now driven it 2500 + miles. Significantly less thumbs up without the rear spoiler.

BTW, the holes in my deck lid were not sealed well enough. Water got into the rear of the lid from washing the car and rusted the bottom of the lid. Make sure you seal the holes well.

 

When I had my 68 painted, I had the original hood and trunk lid painted along with a NOS Cowl Hood and NOS Trunk Lid drilled out for a spoiler. I can change the look by removing and replacing 8 bolts.

 

Looking at it again tonight, I think that I'll be investing in the new spoiler. I think that it balances out the car, despite being a huge fan of the 'Better Off Dead' RS/SS. :thumbsup:

Looks like there is an ABS plastic version and a fiberglass version. My current spoiler is really warped and the black paint looks like a rattle can job because of it. Doesn't fit the decent job on therest of the car. Is there a better version of the spoiler? The shop will get whatever I prefer. I believe they get parts from AMD and Dynacorn.

Good call!

 

Restoration forum and adding a spoiler to a 67. You could add a cowl hood at this point.

 

Great idea. Now you're talking.

 

No, the clue is in the name "Spoiler", ie: it spoils the car.

 

No spoiler !!!!

 

Click on my username to see my spoiler... Spoiler power

 

When i did my car it didn't have a spoiler, i drilled the original virgin decklid to fit my spoiler. Did I commit a sin? LOL! To me the car looks naked without the spoiler. Yes I know almost every car we see has a spoiler on it and they shouldn't but I like it. Funny thing is the old timers tell that almost no Camaros had em back in the day...

Undrilled, rust free decklids are hard to find. Even non 67 ones command a good price. Drilling a repro lid is a more wise decision.

 

No rear spoiler here, only front. My car feels pretty heavy at 120mph without the rear spoiler. Not sure what it would be like with one.

 

My flat hooded 69 had spoilers when new, so both were kept. I like the way it looks.
A friend's 67 had cowl hood and spoilers added after new paint. My first thought was,
"what did you do?" Now; a few years later, it looks ok. He added them for "a more aggressive look." His words; not mine. Let everyone know what you decide.

The spoiler on a first gen is a stick on sets above the deck lid, looks like the old pasties in the old bars.

 

Kinda like old bars, kinda like old pasties on newer models.

 

The lines of a 67 camaro no spoiler and a flat hood are classic.

 

No spoiler here. Keep it original.

 

I would leave it off, I fill bad every time I see an original 67 factory deck lid drilled for a spoiler, I think they spoiled it. But hey I also like vinyl tops. Although I like a spoiler on a 69
