Interesting 73 Z28

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2439405889 I don't remember ever seeing a 73 (and very few 70-72) Z's w/ out at a rear spoiler. I can't quite make out the fine print on the 1st line of the handwritten order but it looks like he didn't want the space saver tire and also wanted an RS to begin with. Being such a low mile car there are some oddities that piqued my interest.
Any input on this out there?

Hi Mark,

Having purchased a 73 Z28 brand new, I can tell you that the spoilers were optional equipment that year. Mine came without them. I'm not sure about 70 - 72. I can also tell you that the space saver tire did not come with the Z28 package; mine had the standard Z28 wheel and F60-15 Firestone Wide Oval tire in the trunk (sure took up a lot of the minimal trunk space). The ad says the tires are still the originals, but that isn't the case. The spare still looks like an original tire, but the ones on the ground are replacements. Still looks like a nice car.

My 73 Camaro Z28 has the spoiler and it was optional when new. Check it out @ photos.yahoo.com/renickh Thanks!
