    It is backward.  Look at the legs.  They are leaning forward.

    You can adjust the pitch of the spoiler, but those pedestals are definitely on bass ackwards!!! Ooops.  :banghead:

    I looked though some of my pictures for what I believe to be a CORRECT go-wing and I actually found one!! (I think) so here it is!!
    You can compare the differences!!!!!

    Looks like someone had to much to drink the day they put that spoiler on or were just wanting to see if anyone would notice.

    Maybe he wanted more downforce when he was going in reverse. 
    I never saw that mounted that way before.   I do see backwards side scoops on Coronets and AAR front tips turned the wrong way and on the wrong sides, and T/A 340 six pack vinyl on the wrong sides.

    I don't get how someone can own a classic expensive Mopar, and mount the go-wing backward. Duhh... :screwy:
