that would be cool. I'm interested. Any chance you could sit it on your car for a pic?

Not sure how I'd sit it on my car, as the present spoiler would require me to sit it much farther forward than it's correct location.

I guess I just wanted to know how it would fit to the contour where it sits down. Do you have the 1 piece spoiler on your car?

Yes, I started with the 1 piece spoiler, but customized mine with metal and fiberglass. Mine is about 2"-2.5" taller than the stock one piece. The stock 1 piece is about half as tall:

I havn't posted any progress lately. I've been sanding away. Not too much to take pics of. It's nice out today that artic blast is gone and it's near 60. Pushed the car out and cleaned the shop.
Took some pics of where it is now.

I guess I have to turn these trac bars around. I want to be ready for the reverse drags on pinks.

I'm a little tired of sanding so I 'm working on something fun. The cold air induction setup. It's also nice to be outside.

Too nice The GF and I are going for a ride.

Still plugging away.. These are parts that need to be pretty as it sits on top for all to see. You will notice how I modified the air cleaner to fit under the hood with the Air gap manifold and the holly 750. I had a weind single plane and a holley 650 befor e I redid the motor.
