Splitter is bolted to the existing body and
spoiler bolts. Then a bunch of sheet metal screws
into the Fiberglass. Been tested to 100mph so far
Picture note the best

Did it help keep the front planted at higher speeds, Bob?

Thanks for the side shot!

Great looking Bird Bob. Love the color, stance and styling. Big fan of the splitter. Keep the pics coming.

Does the spitter work?

Front seemed pretty stable on the car
before so hard to tell. Only a blast
Down the freeway quickly to make sure it
stayed on. Working on the rear one next
which will be an extension on the TA tale
Squared off will work better but I am going to
cut it angled on the ends as it looks better

Then time to cut the fender vents
Was going to do hood vents but too
many things in the way

Thanks for the comments
Been sending things to my buddies for
a while and decided to start a thread here
Not like what some of the others have done
but fun as I can do it myself

Not as pretty of a car as my Pantera but my
favorite as I brought it back from the dead
and raced it for many years

LOVIN' this car!!

What are you going to do for fender vents?

A previous shop eliminated the 71-only functional fender vents on my car... said the 71 fenders couldn't be saved... idk I doubt they were that bad, but water under the bridge. The car does look smoother without them, but with my Anvil hood with no cowl vents and no fender vents I'm wondering if I shouldn't look at some way of getting some of the air out from under the hood too.

Interested to see what you come up with!

Ty,
I bought some vents from summit
Hopefully will get them cut in this weekend and
will post... If you read Brian Hobaug's build he
just put some in his hood as it moved all around
at 140mph.. I still have the steel hood and my
car has not gone 140 yet.. just been an autocrosser

So finished the rear spoiler extension

Fender vent cut on
one side. Was a pain to cut
around the end of the fire wall
But putting it farther forward would
have looked funny. Will snap it in
Monday and cut the other side
It is a clear shot to the engine bay
so hopefully it with help cool things off

Is this going to be cosmetic or functional?
