I bought my 67 convertible in 1997 with the spoiler.
Point is, every owner has their own vision of what they want their car to look like. If it's originality or custom, that great.
I agree completely, my '69 is certainly not the way it left the factory. My post was just to point out that the subject of the rear spoiler (and the chin spoiler too) really seems to ruffle some feathers here.
I am guilty of one of the other big no-nos to some, the dreaded "buick" air cleaner sticker.
I also have a 400 hood on my 350 but in my defense I did put the 350 callouts on it. Our cars are just that "ours" and to be enjoyed by us.
