The 69 Trans Am rear spoiler does work because the engineers balanced it out with a front spoiler. The 69 Judge rear spoiler was just cosmetic, but that was ok because the whole Judge thing was supposed to be a gimmick, and not intended to be a serious performance car. The 69 Trans Am was supposed to go racing, so its front spoiler, rear spoiler, and the side air extractors were all functional. The 69 Trans Am front spoiler was very tall (Firebob's is a correct 69 T/A front spoiler) and attaches to the lower baffle pan.
And nice pic from Firebob! That spoiler looks cool!
