Does anyone know where I can get a replica or original spoiler from the 79 pace car?

I'm not sure if anyone would have that...Might wanna check out someplace like 5.0 Resto, Texas Mustang Parts or Mustangs Unlimited and see if they carry repops.

BTW- isn't that the same spoiler that came on all the Mustangs around that time? (5.0's & 2.3 turbos) I could be wrong...

It looks like it attaches in the same way as the standard spoiler. However, if you look close, it looks more like a "duckbill" spoiler, like on the eleanor kits.

that spoiler was used on all spoiler-equipped hatchbacks from 1979-early 1984. its a 3 piece setup, the 2 side pieces and the main lip across the back...it attaches nothing like any other spoiler so you will have to drill holes

search around, they are out there...ive seen a bunch on ebay...they arent that desirable so not many people advertise them, but they are out there

I found 2 of them, one for the 79, and one for the 82. Mounting them took some effort, as locating the holes was a pain. I like them. They should be fairly easy to find in salvage, etc.

However, I am still looking for the front spoiler set up....

Yeah the 79 Pace car 80/81 Cobra and 82 GT were the best looking. That's why I have 3 extra Noses and Air dams, and no they are not for sale

Damn you to hell!

When I was planning to keep my coupe I was gonna swap to a 82 GT clip I was gonna split the headlight wires so I ran 4 lights for low and high beam

Cut the trim out of the nose and plastic weld in the 87-93 style trim, move the turn signals just underr the tim pice kinda next to the foglights just a lil up and to the outside.

and I was gonna top it off by modifyiing 93 cobra sideskirts to flow with the front bumper and then use a 93 cobra rear and call it a day.

no spoiler with a 84 Turbo GT scoop on a stock hood.

In my head it looks pirty cool and as origional as I can think of.

But I said to hell with it, the coupe is causing me the biggest headach ever so when I get it fixed up looken nice iam gonna sell it and hopes of getting a 96-98 v6 SN in white with set of 02-03 cobra rims painted white

SVO1, exactly how many pieces are in one of those 79-82 spoilers and how do they attach?

And, yes, I am looking for one.

There are technically 4. The upper nose, lower air dam, and the Fender extensions. Extensions have two studs in each fender with nuts, lower air dam has I think 8 bolts that hold it to the upper nose, and then it has 2 in the front of each fender.
I may actually be going to pick up another one in a few days, a guy just called me. If I get it I will snap some pics. My other's are up overhead and with the 87 having no suspension it is impossible to get in my garage attic

I understand!
Only killer I think would be the shipping.
If you know of a good way to ship a nose shoot me a pm and we can talk!

Got it, an 82 GT nose, lock stock and barrel, plus a hood scoop and rear hatch spoiler. Now I gotta do all the prep for paint, not my favorite work.
