I know all about it. Let me know what you need and I may be able to help you out. I've collected lots of parts over the past bunch of years. Your car will be killer when it's done. People like to put down these '70 455's as junky truck engines but all I know is that my car is all stock and I can cruise highways at 100 MPH and not overheat or rattle and rumble, I can blast from 50-100 MPH in the blink of an eye, and if put to the test on a 0-60 sprint I probably wouldn't lose to the RA3 engine by very much - if at all (assuming same rear, tires, condition, driver, etc.)

Is that wrong? What would be the code for the Wing special order?
The '70-'71 Judge rear deck spoiler WAS an RPO on all '70 & '71 GTO's.

It was a "dealer installed" option on '72's.

Well learn something every day. Does ANYONE have a car with this option? I see the code but have never seen another car claim it was original unless on a Judge. How many GTO's had the Judge wing from the factory?

In other words Boss you're saying that no one had that option and in effect it wasn't really an option??? Or something like that?

I've never seen it ... period.

No, not at all - Lloyd & I have this thing about the 72's - with such low production (5807) there seems to be a disproportionate number of them that have wings. For an option that supposedly was never offered at the factory, there were a lot of busy dealers installing these spoilers.

I tend to point them out to him now whenever one comes up on here or e-bay.

Wasn't WT7 the Black spoiler option code?
