    True enough, looking for one nearby. Hopefully can barter for one, as cash flow is low. :rolleyes:

    Well........I went into work and after 45 min. I figured the plant was running smooth enough for me to leave after an hour. I reaaly wanted to use the new spraybooth to get some chassis saver on my fenders. I went home, did some final sanding and blasting on the fenders. Took a shower ( to get ready to spray) and I got a phone call...Geuss Who....Work. Wouldnt you know it. It seems all of Hell is against my Mav restomod. One of the fire supression systems began to leak and since there are no longer any techs at this installation....I dressed up and went in. After 2 hrs I got everything fixed and left. Then I unleashed my spraygun and got those fenders done.:yahoo:

    Yes I like that spoiler too. I've always wanted one, just not on my current Maverick.

    Its for a 68 Cougar Eliminator, sits higher than the Mach I spoiler wing. I stole the Idea from one of the members here, Dfitzman. Only 100 bucks from West Coast Classic Cougars.
