OK :) So I got a new job and now work on the car will continue. :) I will update soooon with pics.

I love the vintage wheels, what made you decide to run 295s on the rear?

LongsTurboFB 06-23-12 04:52 PM

Well Being it's Going to have an Large 13b Bridgeport in it with a Huge Holset HX50,
With some Mooser Axle's. LOL I'm hoping to make some where near 800hp. My last FB
put down 700hp on 32psi with C16, and 516hp on 21psi and a pump mix. So will see. :)

Oh wow that is one cool car...:)

Shredduuhh 06-26-12 02:40 PM

i would love to have one of those wings as well... lol

kutukutu1 06-26-12 11:53 PM

i think everyone is rooting for the wing, make a mold and make a couple of fiberglass wings. i am sure many of us are willing to pay for it. you can use that money to bring it to its former glory again.

jozeyrx7 07-13-12 04:31 AM

are you serious? $700?
One of those rims would cost $700..

p.s- y no updates for like 20 days?

Keeble 07-13-12 07:42 AM

Mariah motosports still sells the wing. no need to do all the work if someone still makes it

Yep, wing is still available. I know someone on the club said theh had checked into it and the prices were raised but they were mistaken. Posted price ($560 I think it was) is correct. They are slow to respond to emails.

I am going to be watching this thread and going over the older widebody threads often. I finally arranged shipping on my widebody donor car.

Fire85GSLSE 07-14-12 11:18 AM

problem with that wing is that on a non wide body car it would look out of place.
I always wanted one of those wings too but will never have a wide body so will have to stick to the IMSA 3pc rear spoiler.

Not trying to thread jack, but Chad, I have to say I disagree. Here are some pics of examples of why I do.

Donnie, all of these seem to taper back to the middle more than the wide body wings I have seen as they start on the flares and then taper out to be wider at the tip than on the fenders.
The first pic you posted would be a nice spoiler. I wanted to take my IMSA one and have it glasses out and a bit more aggressive.




Cant wait to see what this wide body ends up being in the end. Will be watching.........

LongsTurboFB 07-16-12 09:06 PM

It's all good I don't mind the pics. LOL Just been soooo!! Busy the past few weeks. I will post
up some progress pics soon. Done fixed a drive shaft to fit the t2 trans, and I got a nice OS Giken
Super twin Disk Clutch. :) To put the power down. And a set of Moser Engineering Axles two. So
It is coming but slow.

OneRotor 07-16-12 09:13 PM

Awesome find, and amazing build. I'm looking forward to the results.

lx_machado 08-02-12 02:26 PM

How wide do you think you can go in the rear? I was thinking about going with the 295/50/15 also but was undecided.
