i know its not the same as a daytona charger wing. but does anyone have the dimension for the superbird wing.

physically I'm going with the third, factoring in the time it's been around you're looking at the fourth.

Let's never forget the Fifth Dimension......Let the sunshine in! 

if we're the only ones getting each other's jokes maybe we should just run back and forth in pm's

I'll measure one of each if you guys want...

I have to re-paint the wing. I missed a flaw on the left upright up under the wing blade. I sanded it down today and hopefully will re-paint it tomorrow. I'l cut and buff the deck lid this weekend and install the parts on Sunday if all goes well. I still have to make the wing washers. I have a fiberglass one to go by to make something that looks acceptable.

As for the cloner, we've talked about jumping in the middle of it and finishing it up in time to take it to St. Louis. Branson's in two weeks so that show is out of the question. We plan to take two of the cudas and the wingrunner to the Branson show. At least I can drive something with a wing.
With my son working with me now, you guys might be surprised at how fast some things get finished. We've accepted several new resto projects though and that will slow us up some. Brent's specialty is the mechanical side but he has some experience with paint and painting. He worked at our old paint store as a paint rep for a while. The only problem with him working at the shop is that I have to actually get up and do something now.

We spent most of the day messing around with the black runner. The six-barrel and 4-speed are in. It's starting to look like a car again.
