      G’day, awesome and thank you for watching. I love hearing from like minded Camaro owners. What engine & what colour (combo) is your car? You are gonna love it when it’s finished.
      Regards Robert.

    My ‘70 also had the 3 piece rear spoiler. I like it better because it’s functional. It was developed for SCCA Trans Am racing. The low profile 1 piece was known to actually induce lift.

    I graduated HS in the mid 70s. I guy a year ahead of me drove a 70 z/28 like this in a green with gray stripes. I was driving a 69' Ply. Road Runner soon after graduation.

      G’day, that would have been so cool to have driven these cars as HS kids. Wow!
      And even cooler to have had a Plymouth Road Runner.
      That’s awesome.

      G’day Rob, as you requested.
      You guys were so were, and still are, so lucky to have easy access to the big three car manufacturing companies.
      We do have some cool cars (here) of yesteryear, but American cars rival all of ours.

    Hi mate, the rear spoiler was available in 1970 as an option from the factory (COPO 9796). A Very rare option for the year - perhaps review the build sheet to see if it was factory fitted. In 1970 the standard option was a low profile 1 piece spoiler

    By "trans am" spoiler, he's referring to the origin of the spoiler design as it relates to the 1970 camaro requiring that spoiler to compete in the trans am racing series.

      The 300hp L48 was the middle of the road option. It had a 4bbl carb and wasn't much more than a cam change away from the 360hp in the Z28. On the other hand, I have the bottom of the line 350 of 1970. It's a 250hp 2bbl, in my no frills, no options other than air conditioning, way more fun than it should be, base model 1970 2nd gen.

      One of my long time best friends use to have a 70 1/2 Z28 and it said 70 1/2 on the title. And I have always preferred the 3 piece spoiler over the 1 piece or no spoiler at all on the 2nd gen camaros.
