Early turbo? tail help/input please....

[haycait911]

have a decklid/wing and trying to sort out what it is. has a part number on the rubber that comes up as a 930 tail rubber, and maybe a date code? the 474? nothing on the tail though. it's got a metal frame with a glass spoiler. an extra opening with a grill. I thought that grill was a cut-down engine grill but is a bit different. regular engine grill with a wiper hole. any thoughts? did a search but tough to find much. thanks

You can't identify tail by the rubber and topside only. Share pictures of the underside, please.

He said it has a metal frame - almost certainly legit. Part number should be stamped on the central "brace". Congratulations - a very valuable piece, especially with the nice looking rubber and seemingly original secondary grille (look at the ends of the "bars" on the grille - you can easily tel if it's just a hacked up main grille by the finish of the ends).

Oh, OK. I saw that as well. Wasn't clear if the fiberglass was cut to allow the flow of the second grill, or if the A/C condenser was mounted underneath, or if he had the cowl or inside panel.

thanks for the input. found the number on the inside. secondary grill definitely not cut, can't find a number on it though.

nice find ! we have an extra black fiberglass oem duct and a/c condenser that would fit the secondary grill area. Might have the metal cover panel too
That will make for a valuable combination we can partner on selling ;-)

That's the same secondary grill I had on my 76 930 to the A/C condenser.
There was a inner cover that covered the condenser to the fan keeping the cool air coming across the condenser.

Thanks for the underside pictures. My tail ends in .01 and is in this thread: What tail is this and could it be original? In the same thread, others were discussing a tail that ended in .00 like yours, possibly from a 75 Turbo.
