Have some "panel lining up" to do and some minor stuff yet. Elephant ears and radiator panels have to be installed. A little too warm to be working in the garage this week though. Will be getting the Pa. inspection for title going this week. Waiting for my spoiler center section - getting striped and cleared. - but it DOES run - took it for a "slightly illegal" ride this morning!
Love the bar with ford logo. Have install pics of that and details?

It's a piece of aircraft strut teardrop shaped steel tube with some angle brackets. Bolts on with the quickjack bolts - pretty easy to fab up - powdercoated to match the silver frame.

I post some photos of the complete spoiler - my painter has it now - had to wait for the trunk paint to be fully cured in order to bolt on the spoiler to mask the stripes - should have it back today or tomorrow.
Fred, you have a very unique build that I would love to see in person. Very nice!
