Boog- You mean like this?

That would be one of them Ken. I knew you would have some pics of them. I'm not sure if I would drive one but they were really different at the time.

Re: Ducktail Cab Spoiler?

Actually Jeff has those on his website. Credit where it is due.

Guys I agree that the spoiler thing is nothing I would care to see come back in style. Keep in mind, the pic I posted was "new" and very much in style at the time it was featured.

up here the dog house is (other then a place we get sent when we screw up) the removable hump in the cab of the big rigs, motor homes and such to gain access to the motor
