Snazzy roof spoiler, odd for the era at least.

A unique glass "spoiler" was mounted at the trailing edge of the roof.

It’s not a bad looking car, really, but so much of the sleek elegance of the original E-Type is destroyed in the changes here. There’s also strange details like the huge, fussy gas cap and plexiglass spoiler that just don’t seem to make much sense.
