There is only one reason to put any wing on the Cuda, the same reason we put one on our Chally...............because we wanted one. Neither car needs one to necessarily enhance their looks, it's a matter of owner preference IMO .  :cheers:

Go wing it!The Gull wing looks great on a `71 but I think the Go wing looks best on the other years.

I have been pondering the exact same thing, I think I like the AAR wing, but did not want to look like an AAR clone... Go-Wing seems a bit tall for me, what does the Gull wing look like.

Then again, you still can not go wrong with no wing, either way looks great.

Sorry, to derail, but does the 'cuda need a wing for rear downforce at high speeds? Or does the front lifting at high speeds render this useless?

I have always loved the rear wings. It's your car so put one on if you want. I put one on my 70 Cuda and love it.

Go for the wing!  It'll give it a little different look from Lucy!
