I just can't wrap my head around the picture doubters here, that think they were photoshopped. It happened... dozens of times, with numerous cars. Family photos with mom, dad and kids.. wife and I, gals dressed in 1970 advertising style clothes, etc. It wasn't your car they were sitting on, so take a valium and move on. ZERO damage was done to any car during photo shoots, unlike a few that got chipped with people doing burn outs in the hotel parking lots! During the Talladega race Myself, Pat McConnel and both french brothers from Quebec (that drove their car all the way down and back) all sat on our wings so we could see turn 4 and the jumbotron without cranking our heads around like a bobble doll.

Here's Baker and Glotzbach on the back of my car, back in the day.
Cast uprights and the horizontal stabilizer is extruded aluminum. NO PROBLEM!

Interesting the valence to cap gap was left as they originally were and the holes for the license plate bumpers are there....

 

[dadsbee]

Some more for you to cringe at.. lol

 

[GetX'd]

Wow love that purple bird. Very nice....

 

[Phil Hall]

MMMOOOOOOO!

 

[dadsbee]

MMMOOOOOOO!

Wow, really... that's the best you could do for your 7th post here? I'm sure the FBBO member on here who's wife you are referring to will be pleased...

 

[moparsaver]

MMMOOOOOOO!

The nasty comments about the ladies is disgusting. Those aren't just random women, they are wing car owners wives and probably members here. I am pretty sure you wouldn't walk up to an owner and say "man get your overweight middle aged wife off that wing". Seriously guys have some class.

That is your car? That is very cool! Do you still have it? I would love to talk to you sometime and see about getting some photos of that beautiful car.

Non racers have found a use for the wing ;)

This is so hilarious.

Plenty of folks were at the reunion and saw these wing sitters in action. Yes it is real, no photoshops. We have seen people do this for the past 5 decades with no damage.

But let’s think this over. The wing was ENGINEERED to do what it does, not just slapped on there from a JC Whitney catalog.
How much force is created on that wing while:
driving down the freeway?
On a 2 lane with an oncoming semi truck?
During a wind storm with 30-40 mph winds?
While you are checking how fast it will go 100+, 120+Mph+?

Do these wings look strong enuf?

Anyone know if the extrusion process was performed hot or cold?

Think of a Play-doh machine. It would work better with warm dough than cold. Any experts out there?
