"I believe this is the Ferrari that Gooding and Company sold for $18,400,000.00 all in at Amelia Island this past March. People at the auction were talking about how it was purchased wrecked out of a Junk yard back in the early 1970's for like $2800.00! CRAZY! Bill"

Some crazy things happen in the Ferrari world. A 250 GTO was donated to a vo tech in the late 60s or early 70s. One of the 39 cars has changed hands privately for over $80million.

The front spoiler on a 1970 Z28 joins the following:

Magnum 500 wheels on 69/70 Mustangs
Spoilers on 69 Mach 1's
Red & White engine callout sport stripes on 1970 Cudas
4 speed in a 67 Buick GS 340

All were never available from the factory as options.

This was the car that put Graveyard Carz in the limelight: One of only two 1970 Hemi Coronet R/T convertibles.

Note how insanely popular Plum Crazy was in 1970.

It's a Camaro convertible with custom body panels. I like it. What say you?

...not completely true Lee. The front spoiler was part of the COPO 3-piece spoiler package that was added later in the '70 model year and was shipped inside the car and then dealer installed. What was never available was the front spoiler with the short 1-piece spoiler in '70.

A very rare car. It has the $388 Competition Handling Package which included 15" wheels and tires along with 15" Galaxie wheel covers. This package was standard on the 67 Shelby Mustangs.

It was also a required option if you wanted the HiPo 289. Ford priced this engine option sky high as it wanted to sell 390's instead. That's why there are so few 67 HiPo Mustangs. First you could only get it with the GT option ($205). Then you had to order the CHP ($388) and finally the HiPo motor ($433). Total cost = $1,026! Almost twice the price for a Hemi ($564). The only reason Ford kept the HiPo 289 alive in 67 was for their Trans Am racing efforts and their committment to Sheby for this GT350 Mustangs.

Thank you for clarifying that. And as noted the car in the photo is wrong as it has the short one piece rear spoiler.

Looks good. But, man, that is a LOT of work to make a Camaro resemble a 1968 69 Chevelle.

Ummm.well sorta. COPO 9796's tall rear spoiler cars in late 70 could be had with the front spoiler

One Dodge dealership in Darien New York kept a 1969 Charger 500 with a hemi until 1989, and then finally sold it (with 1270 miles on it from parades and events) It's just been sold at BJ for 341K

The front of the Mustang seemed to be higher than normal. I walked up to the front of the car and raised its hood, only to find an engine bay minus the power plant. Even though the Mustang was void of an engine, I could tell this engine compartment was unlike any other I’d ever seen on a Mustang. The car had an unusually thin radiator with heavy-duty steel brackets that were unlike those on a factory Mustang. The compartment also had a large metal container resembling an oil or water cooler mounted in front of the shock tower on the driver’s side, and like the front and rear bumpers, the passenger side shock tower had a Curtiss-Wright decal. This decal read, “Rotating Combustion Engine — A New Shape in Power.”

The NACA duct was originally used on jet air craft but the design didn’t pay off big the way engineers had hoped. Turns out the jet engine doesn’t like the turbulent, choppy air pulses that come in from the low boundary layer that NACA ducts take in.

When used on the Douglas YF-93A in tests, the high speed dives the jet was capable of was limited by loss of air to the jet engine due to turbulence. By the time the Douglas YF-93 reached production, the NACA ducts were dropped for another design. While they were used to some degree, it wasn’t the big innovation they were hoping for.

In the auto world, the NACA duct held more promise. It’s compact, low profile so drag isn’t a problem and easy to design. The cosmetic appeal is also high. Internal combustion engines with carbs don’t mind a bit of turbulence before reaching the inside of a carburetor. It helps atomize fuel better and provides cooler air. Cars did end up using the NACA duct to some degree. In fact, Ford used it first on their 1969 Shelby GT 350 and GT 500.
