Wings on the First Gen's

[Robnhood]

 

This is a picture of my Monte Carlo when I first got it, and I had almost forgot that it had a wing, and that was well over 20 years ago.

Needless to say, My Monte has long since loss it's wings, but it can still fly.

I am not a purist, I have a 396 in my 1970 Monte Carlo.  It is definitely not original, but I like the original look.  

Ok.  So I might change it a little, but don't want to spoil it.

The hood spear is from a later year Monte, and I could be wong.  LOL!  But it never originally had "Hotrod" on the grill.

Glad the wing went, hood spear is up to you. I  removed mine of course the hood on mine is off a 72 I added the cowl scoop. I still have original one too.

Prior to me my car had a hood scoop.  There were about 25 holes in the hood when we went to paint it.  Needless to say, we replaced the hood.

Looks better on that than a first gen Monte.

I fully agree with you Rob  ! Don't even consider putting that wing on a First Gen. Actually,   I really can't think of anything that I would want a wing of such on ! Hopefully for the Benz it's aerodynamic and enhances the car's handling at high speeds.... and not just for looks 😂 😆

The only thing those wings are good for now, is a highchair for all the people that install them on their cars, so they can eat their McD's happy meals.
