74 Rear Spoiler Options

Does anyone know if you can buy a kind of NASCAR (for lack of the real name) type rear spoiler? I had come across a picture awhile back on one of the C3 race cars but of course I can't find it now. I'll keep searching and post the picture if I find it. If anyone has an idea of what i'm talking about feel free to chime in!

That picture is from a video game, but that is what it looks like. I still cannot for the life of me find the photo I was looking at.

Rear bumper from an '80. Before anybody gets on me about the bumper sticker, that pic is in the driveway of the previous owner. I didn't/wouldn't put a bumper sticker on any car.

I got it from Tracy performance in Detroit, as I live across the river in Windsor, Ontario. They sell them pretty much any online Vette parts place (Ecklers, Zip, Corvette Depot, etc) it's called a turbo wing

Thanks Toolman,
I love that Tracy Performance. And Tracy is a heck of a character.

I'll put it on my list, drive down sometime from Port Huron and snag one. Do remember what it set you back?

The black 69 has a custom spoiler molded into the rear panel. Nice work.

The red car has an 80-82 style rear bumper cover replacement.

I don't know if either will fit your 74 due to the one year only tail light mounting for the 74s.

OK, That's still OK. I would like to put the original split rear bumpers back on my car and then add a rear spoiler like the one I saw in this youtube video....can you help?

----- I really love the look!

The spoilers on the You Tube car look like 78 Pace Car spoilers to me. They were standard on the Pace Cars and optional on the 79s. You can probably find reproductions from the aftermarket providers.
