What is the best site for a wing that will fit a 3rd gen charger?

Thanks

 I think  the body is different enough that a Daytona wing wouldn't fit a 3rd generation.

Ask member Dayclona. He would know if he still comes here. He built that '71 Daytona

Dayclona has not been on since January 2007. I thought I had run across a site that had them for 3rd gens. Recon I was wrong.

you're looking for user "DAY CLONA" with the space...

Mike Goyette of Dayclona built the wings for the first third gen recreations so he's the man. All of his stuff is top notch.
If he is too busy, you might contact Don Currie about building you a wing. He can build a sheet metal over tubular frame wing. He built a Superbird wing for me that was very nice.
A third gen wing will be a custom piece so get ready to fork over some cash. I think they run around three grand. That's compared to a Daytona wing or a Superbird wing that typically run two grand. The third gen wing has to be built to sit on that narrow quarter panel and is harder to build.
Don will need a car to use to mock the wing up on. Not sure if he has one available or not. Good luck.

Alas, my wing will be eye candy on someone else's car. I knew it would be expensive but 3-4k is way above my budget.

Thanks for the responses.

That's the Stinger kit, the companies merged, I have that same wing if you want to buy it $700.00 bough a wing from Dane.
Sold my Charger unfortunately....never got it finished.

That would be a good wing to cut and alter for a third gen. The horizontal blade will have to be lengthened. You can cut the base completely off and build up a fiberglass base using your quarters as a template. I suggest molding in a reinforcement in the horizontal blade when you lengthen it.
