Could you post the link, or what you used to search for that, I saw that exact pic somewhere else and had no clue you still buy one...

Re: Saw this on eBay

Mine is a little differant than that one. This one looks like the 67-69 camaro spoiler. Mine was for the later trucks I think late 80's trucks. The one I use is for a 2 wheel drive. They have the 4 wheel version also with tow hook cut outs in it.

Re: Saw this on eBay

The seller has not reposted the item. Hopefully, the seller will repost soon. I think I am going to buy it.

Re: Saw this on eBay

Looks like the stock one on my '79 El Camino.

You might want to look at the GM G body car stuff.

I am referring to the spoiler on the black truck.

Re: Saw this on eBay

There's a bit of a difference in both front spoilers pictured above. Andy's is an air dam, much like the stock 78-87 El Caminos had. These are meant to assist the radiator's air flow as well as air flow underneath the body.

The other one is a simple spoiler style and is mainly just for looks.

The 78-87 El Caminos had a real spoiler you could get as an option that had both rolled into one. It also had brake duct holes. My '78 ss had one.

Re: Saw this on eBay

Here's the website for Spoilers by Randy.
He sells the spoiler you saw on ebay.
http://spoilersbyrandy.com/default.aspx

The website states the following:
1967-1972 Chevy Trucks $120.00
Shipping in the lower 48 states is $25.00
All of our spoilers have been designed to look like they were a factory option. All spoilers mount behind the bumper not on the bumper. They mount close to the radiator support to help bring air to the radiator.
These spoilers, made of 22 guage steel with a black satin finish, come with mounting hardware and installation instructions.

I'm thinking of getting the same spoiler and also have concers about quality.
It looks like they've had good reviews on ebay for what it's worth.

The spoiler on ANDY4639's truck is just like the one on my 1983 2WD C-10.
They're available from LMC truck and others for around $40 (see link below)
http://www.lmctruck.com/features/cc/...-chevy-c10.htm

The site below has pictures of a 1971 C10 with a 1969 Camaro spoiler installed.
http://rides.superchevy.com/ride/101.../photos/5.html
Goodmark makes 69 Camaro spoilers PN 463-4020-035-69. They're available through Jegs, Summit Racing and others for around $35.

Good luck!

Re: Saw this on eBay

How's the quality?

Would they work with a front roll pan?
