I think I got hosed...... Reply #30 – July 22, 2007, 08:58:24 PM Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated this yet. All's well that ends well. The seller gave me a full refund after talking to him over a couple of emails, so this issue has been resolved, much to my delight! Thanks again, Mike! :D Quote Selected

I think I got hosed...... Reply #36 – July 23, 2007, 09:15:46 PM Sorry man, but you asked. :hick:I can't STAND spoilers that are mounted incorrectly or spoilers that don't "go" with the car. When both are combined I get queasy. I would take it off, but the paint on the car and spoiler is nice so refinishing the trunk would be $$$. Quote Selected
I think I got hosed...... Reply #37 – July 23, 2007, 09:52:48 PM Jeremy, you are right. I did say "usually" and not "always". But based on my conversations with Elliotts, and seeing both 86 and 87 body styles in their personal museum, the Talledega cars had the rear spolier leaned way back to decrease drag, versus a short-track car that had the spoiler almost straight up.And I agree with Aerobird, but I just wouldn't say anything bad about another guy's car. :-)))I don't really care what something looks like if it works.

I think I got hosed...... Reply #38 – July 23, 2007, 11:31:11 PM Yeah, the fin isn't going anywhere, but all this talk about them got me thinkin about the one I got and what people thought. I pretty much would have to sand and repaint the whole trunk lid to eliminate it or change it to a ford fin so...yeah. Quote Selected
