75 - 77 Turbo Carrera rear wing

Is this a factory wing from a 75-77 Turbo? Trying to determine exactly what it is.

factory wing

Looks like an early Turbo tail but can't place it date wise. I have a 76 carrera 3.0 that I am considering putting one of these on. It has the stock tail with that same wiper motor setup. I also have a Weissach with a similar tail, less the rear wiper motor and extra vent. The metal frame looks almost identical.

Let me know if you are interested in selling it. Here's two crummy shots of the Weissach as a reference. Car is backed into garage, so can't get enough light or room for a better picture. The reason I am posting it is that it's not a fiberglass frame.

Sure looks like it to me. The next version of the wing was the "tea tray", which that certainly is not.

76/77 Turbo with a/c as indicated by the larger second grill. Oh, and the condenser.
Let me know if it's for sale.

Thanks Tony and Bob. I am selling it, parting out an entire 74 made into a Turbo look years ago. been in storage since 1997, which is why the rubber is so soft and nice. I didn't want to misrepresent it.

no idea on value, I'll send you each PMs.

it is a really neat tail in terms of all the understructure.

Off topic, but I have a 1989 Carrera with the factory whaletail. This looks to put the rear condenser out of the engine air flow and maybe hot soak. I know the direction of the air flow, but this may get more CFM. Anyone know if it improve the AC performance?
