It's an extruded aluminum spoiler, it was only installed on 426 HEMI equipped cars, although I'm sure some dealers may have installed them on lesser equipped Chargers if their owners requested it, it was offered only so that it could be sanctioned for NASCAR use on the factory racecars as the fastback was getting light in the rear at speeds...repros are available from several sources like YEAR ONE, ACME restoration products....

Yes, if yours has been on there since at least '74, it's probably an original and worth some cash. Repops are/were available. I have one on mine.

It was introduced in late '66 and into '67.
