Does any one have or know where I can get the measurements or template to mount a daytona wing and the trunk brackets. Thanks Tim

Assuming your wing is correct in regards to it's actual size?...the rear trailing tip of the wing base is approx 3 1/4" +/- 1/4" from the trailing edge of the rear fender cap, based on that info, you can make your own templates/measurements using your wing base gaskets/wing stud measurement and locating the wing washers under the rear qtr, this will supply you the hole locations in which to drill...this will only work with an original wing or a Dayclona or Janak repro wing and hardware, as the other repro wings on the market (aluminum or fiberglass) vary too much in shape/size and stud location and/or orientation for any templates or measurements to be of any value to you, if you have an aftermarket wing, your best off assembling it, and carefully measuring it to fit the car, if your putting the Daytona stripe on as well, I'd have that available as well for measurement reference/placement, as I've seen too many guys suffer the consequences later reworking decal placement, or wing re-location (usually after paint!)

Thank you very much. So basically from the rear of the top quarter end cap to the rear of the rear of the base of the wing 3" to 3 1/2

Yes that is correct,...also the wing base itself is (should be) approx 17 1/4" long, keep that in mind for possible stripe placement, the rear cords (vertical trailing edges of the wing uprights) are parallel to one another, there's no taper when viewing the wing from the rear of the car, the approx measurement between the center of the rear cords, should be 60" top to bottom, be sure to check the cord measurements, as some Tona wings will taper at the lower section of the cords dimensionally wise when the uprights are bolted to the center blade on an unmounted wing, so you may have to loosen the wing assembly to take any proper measurements of the base studs, it's not unusual on any wing, original or repro to have the stud orientation, or bases angled/distorted, you'll just need to compensate the location of the holes on the qtrs, the trick is to measure as much as possible and drill once, otherwise you'll be making Swiss cheese of the quarters
