Default 1985 C4 Greenwood Spoiler

Just purchased a 1985 C4 that has a Spoiler on the rear with Greenwood stamped on it......The rest of the car looks stock....Is this after Market or stock for 1985......The greenwood editions I have seen online do not look like mine
Thanks
Mike

Oh man...…..such a nice looking car, but you need to get some nicer updated wheels for it. Those gold wheels () and gold pinstripe ruin your C4 in my opinion.

Since that rear spoiler is a Greenwood it should actually be attached with rods to the frame not just through the body like the imposters.
Good luck with your recent new '85 C4 purchase.

Leave it alone... Tons of these have become trailer trash beaters and race cars. The more "period correct" you leave it the better off you are and it will be appreciated. I'm not a purist AT ALL ask anyone, but I think that car is a good example. The wing is a true greenwood by the stamping, but it does not mean much. Still better than a repop of it. The wheels are what would have been on it back then. the mods are period correct IMO.

That spoiler looks right as polo green said. I like it and the only other thing I would add is side pipes.

I removed both seats including power seat frames, amazing how quick it gets dirty under there. I ended up swapping the seat racks because the drivers
side is inop and the passenger side mostly works. I have been delaying buying rebuilt frames until i do the full interior carpet replacement plus I'd prefer
eventually to rebuild the frames myself. Either way the car is much cleaner inside and now I can move the seat so my son can drive the Corvette when
he has a successful week at school.

This car is amazing. I remember I was a child and I first saw this car. I was at a car expo with my father, and I fell in love with this Corvette. From that time, I started to be a fan of Corvette. I even own a Corvette C3. Once, I sold my old van for scrap at a junkyard, and at the entrance, a Corvette was rusting. I saw it, and I understood that this is a sign and I need to buy it and try reconditioning it. Now all the work is practically done, and I can't wait until I start driving it on the public roads and catch people's attention.

Definitely the real deal, Greenwoods claim to fame is adding down force with no drag
Here's the Wifey's '84 and the original owner put it on the same week he took delivery

A pair of 4's
