Whale tail question
Hi guys ive been thinking about buying a whaletail for my 82 911 and i found one that appears to be off an early 70s 911. I was wondering if this early 70s decklid will fit on my 82?

if it is a decklid from a 73 or older, no. (Longhood, pre impactbumper)
Post 74, yes. (Impact bumper cars)

Speaking of '82 SCs, here's what I did...with a used 3.2 Carrera tail and my original lid.

Thank you, sir! That's what you gotta do when you start with a tail that's the wrong color!

Were all of these parts used (metal)? I have a front spoiler (uninstalled) and was thinking of using it but I didn't want to have a front and no rear spoiler...

65-89 decklid mounting is interchangeable BUT the early lids (pre 74) may have license plate lamp holes in them. (so did some factory 74 pieces with plates to block off the holes)
but yes, they will bolt up and accept the closing plunger just fine A good fit is another matter- depending on your car and the part purchased
