I was going to put a rear spoiler on my 73 Formula. I had a correct early spoiler for it. In the end, I decided against it. Now, I wouldn't have it any other way. The uncluttered lines are...

Yes, it has the same shift porch as my 66 GTO. I guess I need to pull the back seats out of both cars and compare the floor. I will also look at the pictures.
