Guest Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 can anyone tell me if the rear wing was available as an option for the 72' conv? - if so, why don't you see many with the wing? - thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 The W35 spoiler isn't listed separately in the parts book 1972 optional equipment list, and in the parts book itself is listed as: spoiler, lid (plastic), 1970-72 F85 2 drs except convertible.That's not saying you couldn't have had the dealer install one if you had wanted it bad enough.I've always figured aerodynamics had something to do with it not being offered on the ragtop. The downforce and turbulence it created (believe it or not it wasn't just for looks) would have put a lot of stress on the flimsy fabric top and frame, as well as the open body structure.
