Front spoiler/spliter

Post by benwall101 »

Hi
Does any body have a picture of a minor with a front splitter/spoiler fitted?, I remember seeing one but im not sure were, i think it had a place for the license plate in the middle and 2 spot lights moulded in the front of it, it looked quite smart

Thanks
Ben

It's obviously to hold the front down when you give it full throttle :o mind it would make a good snow plough :D

A friend of mine had one of these fitted to his Minor in the late 70s. Mind you he did have a Rover V8 and Jaguar running gear to complement it!! :D :D

Given that the Minor has the aerodynamics of a housebrick, just what could this possibly achieve...??
