bomccorkle 12 Report post Posted September 18, 2014 Okay bit of a goofy deal here. The car is a 69, but using a 70 front valance, is there any difference in the 69-70 chin spoiler? If so is it merely the mounting or are the spoilers actually any different? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70fastbak 16 Report post Posted September 18, 2014 I believe they are the same. Its just a little easier to mount on a 69 valance because you use two holes that are already in the 69 valance. On the 70 valance you have to drill all your own holes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guillaume69 150 Report post Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) When I put a 69 spoiler on my 69 front valance, couple weeks ago, there where 3 holes in the spoiler for the three lower valance bolts, and then, I had to drill both spoiler and valance to add 10 or 12 screws that make the fit real snug. I had the car on a lift during the operation and to be honest, I had imagined this to be a simpler task. The last thing you want being a crooked looking spoiler... Not sure about the differences with a 70, though. G Edited September 18, 2014 by Guillaume69 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Conway 264 Report post Posted September 18, 2014 So no marker lights ? Mounting requires some team work. I would go with the 70 reproduction and follow the instructions. Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Car has a nice clean shave all the way around. Too bad getting rid of the back markers wasn't as easy as the front.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Conway 264 Report post Posted September 18, 2014 Well you know I have always like the look the underbody lights give off at night. Might be a use for those abandoned/vacant marker light harness's ? Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im so stealing your idea:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buening 63 Report post Posted September 22, 2014 The Ford engineers improved the design in 70, as they found the 3 fasteners of the 69 didn't hold up too well to parking spot curbs and the such (thats my theory anyways). They increased the number of fasteners to something like 12 in 70 as well as change the texture and increase the thickness of the spoiler. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
