1970 Dart Swinger FINALLY UNDERWAY
Maybe I can get some replies on this little fiasco I'm starting
oh yeah and what's up with the scuffing on that one piston skirt?
This is the first concept for my air dam/front spoiler. I'm taking a lot of inspiration from the ones used in mad max on the falcons actually. I'll be including ducts to route air through the dam and cool the brakes as well as directing some airflow up under the bumper to the radiator.
I haven't yet started on it but I'll be including a spoiler with an adjustable angle that will be mounted underneath the dam.
This is just a REALLY REALLY rough sketch up that I put together in a few minutes in gimp but it's what I've got so far. I'll be doing a lot more modifying my design. It WILL be painted the same color as the car, my goal is for it to be functional but also blend with the car so it doesn't just look wildly out of place when it's not on the track.
Final plan will be to mock up the dam with wood, then fiberglass over it. Separate the fiberglass and reinforce it with steel support brackets behind it. The spoiler will be affixed with a joint on either side and at the center, and adjusted with a couple small turnbuckles mounted behind the dam.
Thoughts? Creative criticism? :cheers:
