you can I/D it by sight. Gentle turn downs that gradually sweep back. Very different from the Go-Wing. Someone will post pics.
Or google pics of 70 and 71 Cudas and look at the difference

The originals I think were 36" from mounting point to mounting point. The reproductions were 3/4" closer together. At least it was that way until a few years ago when FPAP started doing a correct reproduction. My 70 'Cuda is an original wing car that the wing was taken off of. The holes are welded up on the decklid. The second owner installed a repro wing on it and the holes are inboard of the originals. I have toyed with putting a real wing back on it but have just never done it.

I haven't priced them in quite some time but they were anywhere from $100-$400 depending on if it was all there and condition. This was probably eight years ago.

Factory wings have part numbers on the inside/underside of the hollow pedestals (FoMoCo & Mopar are the same parts with different numbers/logos).

The one pictured appears to be original with aftermarket fasteners & RoadRunner/GTX reinforcement plates (real or repro?).

If wing & plates are real $400-600, if it's all repro $100-200
