    David,

      A go-wing spoiler is cheaper than the 71 gull-wing. You have a bumble-bee stripe, don't you? My two pennies worth is a spoiler doesn't look right with a bumble-bee stripe.

    If it were me choosing wings, it would be a gull wing. They look cool. Way more cooler than the go wing. Just my  :2cents:

    I know Mopar and Ferd shared a part here and there over the years, but for some reason when I see a 70 Mopar Go-Wing, all I see is Mach 1...



    If it wasn't for the T/A hood and spoiler combo on my car I'd have the gull wing.  Just my opinion!  :poopoke: :stirpot:

     :iagree:  I wounder though if the actual wing on the Ford and Mopar Go Wing are the same width?  I know the pedestals are shorter on the Ford version.


    I do REALY like the first pic with the Cragars!  I dig the 70's look!  8)  Definitely if you go with a spoiler go with the 1970 Go Wing style as your car is a '70.

    IMO '71 Gull Wings don't look right on a '70.  :2cents:
