Spoiler question

[Sputnik]

I came across a rear deck spoiler from a 71 Duster - what are the differences between the A's and B's ? I can pick it up for a steal and will use if differences are hardly noticeable to the untrained (?)

The differences wont be noticable at all A/B/E the differences are, the first cuda' is a 71 gull wing, and the second is a 70 go wing

Thanks - was the wing an option on RR's after 71 ?

Although I have seen rare options from the factory like this 73 RR below hood tach(awsome)- havent seen the rear spoiler except added by the owner

Hood tach ? Never seen that ..... never even heard of it. I may add the spoiler since I can pick it up for 100 bucks. For that price I could mount it on the mantle over the fireplace (would need permission, of course).

Just as long as you only paint it flat black "id get it if it were there- they look great!
Make sure you get all mounting brackets underneath (important) **but you may need to order new gaskets**

I know of a guy holdin a org.gull wing for 4 times that...some people and their prices

Picked it up tonight - have no clue as to brand name yet - also can't tell if it's ABS plastic or fiberglass , does have a texture ("lumpy") in the mold tho (no "real deal" cars in the area I can compare to). I'll see if I can dissect it tomorrow and find brand/numbers, etc ...........

Went to a show yesterday and most spoilers I saw were slick/smooth texture vs "lumpy" texture - still would like to know which is correct ?

Those hood tachs were probably outsourced, and I've seen them on GMs. I have also seen them with "factory" pentastars on the face.
