Is anyone reproducing the '72 Duck tail spoiler. Would dearly love to have one for our Lemans Sport. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Yes Keith,
Someone is reproducing it. In fact, I think some guy on eBay is stocking them.
I'll try to find out who exactly is making them though-- they'd probably be a bit less expensive from the source.

Yes, the Parts Place in Illinois has reproduced the duck tail spoiler, and I believe they're working on the convertible version now.

I have an original '72 brochure and it shows a red GTO with the ducktail. Best looking spoiler Pontiac ever made. Never thought of a '72 in Daytona Yellow but that one above looks great. Now, if I can just get our Lemans to sit that low. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Keith,
Actually, my GTO is blue ('69 Crystal turquoise) but I wanted a '72 GTO avatar so I used a drawing of the yellow goat drawn by an artist named Dave Jeffries. He has all 11 GTO years posted at ultimategto.com (http://www. ultimategto.com)

Yeah, I'd like to get my GTO as low as the picture too! Mine's low, but could be lower. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I still think that ducktail is cheaper elsewhere. Maybe it was Year One?
I know it wasn't Ames Performance.
