Original front spoiler for a 69
« on: December 03, 2014, 02:34:15 AM »
Did the original front spoilers for 69's have any GM numbers on them ???  I have one with just a GM sticker on it.  There are no letters or numbers on the spoiler, other than the GM sticker.

Nothing molded as far as I can see. I have 4, 2 used, 2 NOS, three have stickers and at least one has the part number as an ink stamp. NOS ones are from the '80's, the used one was on the car from at least '73 or '74.

The one on the Pace Car appears GM, but I can't see any identification on it anywhere.

Anyone else have examples ?

I don't think anyone would reproduce them correctly.  Very light black plastic and shockingly flimsy.  If you have had one in your hands before you would not have any difficulty identifying a GM piece. They were very inexpensive when you could buy them new from the GM parts department.  The bracing pieces probably cost more than the spoiler.  I have only seem them with stickers.

That's the correct number according to the 69 AIM, UPC D80 sheet A1. You didn't happen to save the ebay photo(s) did you? Would be interested to see the ink stamp.

Three versions for you to compare - 1) Old spoiler from the '70's, last vestige of the label remaining, 2) NOS spoiler pics 1&2 - label and stamped part number in upper right corner, heat stamping, 3) ink stamping only. The two NOS pieces were purchased at the same time, from the same dealer before they discontinued. The oldest was purchased and installed in the early '70's.

HERE IS MINE. 

Donny - is there a part number heat stamped under the top right edge of the spoiler on yours ? Kind of difficult to see, I never knew there was one on mine until I looked at it today. Obviously, if there was more than one manufacturer, some might have had it and some not, but I think we can rule out the ink stamped versions as having one unless someone has another example. Early ones apparently didn't have one based on my first example.

Regards,
Steve

I went to the basement garage and cleaned and checked mine (I bought it from the Chevy dealer in 1976 right after I bought the car).   It had the 'residue' from the paper sticker on the back, but sticker was gone and I didn't see a stamped PN in it.
