And I agree. But I'll bet you there are people out there who will say hocum to this.

I agree the Supremes didn't come with spoilers, but I put this one just above the curve downward and it fit pretty good. Many of these items came off a dead Rallye 350 I pulled out of the blackberry vines.
I like the idea of the OAI hood - that could be ordered on the 70-72 CS. Same with the sport mirrors. Soooo, whatever happened to that car? Or more importantly the OAI hood..

Amazing how many parts are 'interchangeable' on these cars...

Has anyone ever put a spoiler on a 66? I exchanged the 456 posi rear end with a 278 pegleg. I'm not sure if I need an air dam or spoiler. It gets a little squirrelly after 100 mph? I don't think spoilers came from the factory until 1968, but I'd like to see a picture of a 66 or 67 with a spoiler.

I don't think an air dam or a spoiler is going to help much. I'd be tempted to have the front end alignment checked.

Thanks to this post, I think the spoiler will look good on my 70 Cutlass Supreme, even though they never came on that body from the factory. I think with the ram air hood and vinyl top and the rake of my car, it can pull off the spoiler look.
