69 camaro baldwin motion wing clone opinions

Hello fellow camaro enthusiasts. I'm trying to restore my 69 camaro and hope to build it to resemble a baldwin motion phase 3 car. I can't find a rear wing so I'm attempting to make my own. This is before fiberglassing. My question is does this look like a kid in shop class made it or do I have something going here. Please only respectful comments. Thanks

I had a pair of the spoilers form Larry. The wing was right. The posts were way wrong, both in shape and spacing.

Not a bad job so far there. Unfortunately, when I make something, usually by the 3rd attempt I have something I am satisfied with. Center post is smaller on the original and the rear slope on them isn't right. The ends you did look a bit too long and droopy. I applaud your effort since I've seen other attempts at clones take the easy way out and substitute something easy, like this:

I would reference this pic to fine tune yours.

The Green Camaro is probably my favorite Muscle Car of all time. I've never seen a clone of it I liked. I can't really explain it, but I just always feel let down by them- which is not the case on clones of other cars. Just be careful on what you do. If you plan on owning your cloned car for a long time, I would encourage you just to build the car with the vintage style you like vs copying the Green car. I think your satisfaction with the end result will more enduring.

Thanks for your insite. The thing is I really like the green car. I wanted a camaro that was different then every other car. If I can't find an original or make a replica of the wing then I'm keeping the lip spoiler that came on the car. I know some take t/a wings and use them but to fill in all the holes in my lid for the wrong wing doesn't make sense.

what car is the first spoiler off of? For the life of me I cant place it any where

Re: 69 camaro baldwin motion wing clone opinions
 
Well. I decided to make the spoiler a little more streamlined. I tapered the rear to 1/4 and pointed out the feet.

Isn't that spoiler a GT0, CUTLASS AND GSX SPOILER??? I think I read that somewhere.

No. I was a wing made for motion by fasglass. They are now fiberconcepts. I called on having a wing made but they never got back to me.

That looks really nice. I would wrap it up there. Best attempt i've seen so far.

Do you plan on copying the stripe too?

The stands seem to be different on this one vs the one on the green car......anyone seeing that as well?

were there multiple versions over the yrs?

Love the wing and the green car!!

Re: 69 camaro baldwin motion wing clone opinions
 
noticed that too ,never seen tall stands before , maybe Joel's bodyguys shortened them ? The wing was in it's original box , with a motion label over the fiberglass manufacturing companies name.

Was the wing purchased from Wisconsin. If so it's the one I missed out on. It was about 3 hrs from my home

Re: 69 camaro baldwin motion wing clone opinions
 
on my NOS Motion wing the stands are about 6 inches high.

these wings were made to fit any car so they may have made the stands longer to allow the installer some material to fit the stands to any deck lid shape
