In 1977, Chevrolet continued the Spyder Equipment package but also added a 2nd package, the Spyder Appearance package. Spyder Equipment was given the RPO Code Z01 while the Appearance package was ordered as Z02. Z01 could be ordered on its own but when you ordered Z02, it automatically included Z01. You could not order Z02 as a stand alone package. Unfortunately, for Monza Coupe buyers, the Spyder package was now only available on the R07 Sport Hatchback model. The new Z02 Appearance package included a new body-colour front air dam, Spyder hood decal, Spyder striping running between the wheels and a body-colour rear spoiler with Spyder script decal. Below is a detailed breakdown of the 2 Spyder packages.
