I am in a total restoration of my 1956 Golden Hawk. after having the
lower air deflector sand blasted I ended up with "swiss cheese". I am
looking for a good used or NOS air deflector. I know fiberglass is
available but I would really like a metal unit. Is there anyone out
there that has one to part with?

I need a solid piece that is not bent and damaged, I could spend 20
hours and rebuild the one I have.

My email is jbwhttail@aol.com

thanks in advance

How bad is the Swiss cheese and the dents? If it's not to far gone and
still has it's correct shape, just fiberglass the inside and then bondo
the outside to smooth it out.

I have one that is bent on the bottom (common), but no rust. $250.00, I am in
Jacksonville, Florida.
