Default Rear spoilers on C3s

What year C3s did not come with a factory rear spoilers built into the fiberglass? If I am saying the wrong turn forgive me, Im talking about the rear upturn on the back of the car.

I know the early years had them and I feel like the later years have them but I may be wrong? Was it an optional part for the back end on later years?

thanks, this question has been driving me crazy for a while.

68 to 73 had metal rear bumpers and the back had a slight upward curve.
74 started the back rubber bumper and continued with the tunnel roof line till 77 no upward curve in the back.
78 started the fast back rear window with an optional add on spoiler and continued to 79.
80 to 82 had a completely different rear bumper with a slight upward curve.
You can google 'image corvette 19XX' and see each year
