Default Wing on a C-3 Covette, show me a pic?

Wondering what a wing would look like on our Corvette? Please show me a pic if you have one. Also, if possible, how much it cost and where you bought it from.

Thanks,
Sarah :auto:

Sarah, You should pick up a Corvette Fever mag. In the back they have all kinds of places selling body parts. I don't know the cost because I bought mine years ago. You have to remember the wing it's self is cheap. Maybe a couple of hundred. The painting and the mounting is what costs. I had a shop weld up a box tubing frame with flat pads to bolt the wing to. If you never drive fast it could be bolted to the body.

If you click on my signature I have two other views of the wing.

Clutchdust I have two days of road racing at Thunder Hill California this weekend. Tracey is already signed up for the May 3-4 Bragg-Smith corvette event in Pahrump. I'm going to make it whether I race or not.

COOL! i'm already waiting! i'm thinking of signing up for the pahrump event but i hesitate because the whole rupert and the track thing is totally up in the air. i need to talk to my contacts out there to see what the latest is with rupert. i know he had the track for sale but at 8 mil, it's going to be a hard sale. will let you know if i find anything out.

sorry to hijack the thread.

I don't know which I like better, the pictures of their '68 monster or the one of their (very) female "web designer" :D

Sorry, of course the Vette wins hands down, no contest at all :chevy

(But anyway, do take a peek at their team page as well ;))

Oliver - You already have the paint job! Just a few mods and your cars would be the same. I was ask by a policeman once. " Why are you driving so fast?" A dumb question deserves a dumb answer. So I said, " That I have a real fear of being rear-ended!"

I just wonder what class of racing that Vette is in.

It seems as if they are racing in the "Deutsche Tourenwagen" (means german touring-cars) category.. Which is something like a "Pro Street" category...


Here is another cool pic:
