Looking really good and I agree with Glenn. That kind of wing would fit in the back, and it could be even a bit smaller than the one in the picture? I really like the spoiler on front, too, painting it black is a good idea. Green and black combination works every time. B)

Maybe a smaller wing like the Ed Quay ones would look good, I think a little sheet styrene and one could be fabbed up pretty easily. Just an idea :) BTW, the front spoiler looks fantastic!

My suggestion for the rear wing. Pro-mod wing... that would really fit on this car.

Cheers Glen,If it was a pro mod build i think that would be perfect.I appreciate your suggestion thought.

Just a little more done,I have tried 5 or so wings/spoilers and nothing looked any good to me for this build.I made a couple out of styrene and have decided on this 1.

Spoiler does look good on it Stan. I like the nascar look you have come up with. I think the pro sportsman spoiler would be to big...

Aha! I thought that color looked awful familiar! I went back a few pages to discover it's the same TS22 Light Green that my Chevette is painted. Perfect color for a 1970s-80s small car. BTW, this Chevette is a replica of my sister-in-law's first car, lime green and all!

I like the spoiler. Looks right at home on there!

Thanks Ron,It took a few goes to get this 1 to look half decent

Man that look stunning what you've done awesome work

Thanks Aaron,i appreciate your kind words....

Looking massively cool! I love the rear spoiler....looks so natural...like it was just meant to be there. Glad this puppy is holding together! Looking forward to the finished car Stan. Cheers!
