Yep, I definitely have one, pn 944.505.075.00. I wound up with this by mistake, Oklahoma Foriegn sold it to me as a bat wing for a 951, which is a different piece. I have $150 into it, and its in *very* nice shape. You can have it for what I have into it, plus shipping (or you can come up to KC for a wrenching party and pick it up if you want! lol). Otherwise, I will probably just hold on too it, as I am sure I will probbaly need one at some point in the future, especially if I find that Horizon Blue coupe I want (or if I let my wife drive my cab again... last time I did, she backed into a telephone pole ).

With all the guys that replaced theirs with the splitters in the last year or so, I would think you might find someone who is willing to part with theirs cheaper, but if you don't, drop me a line.

I suggest you go to a KCWS wrenching party to pickup the bat wing. They are a great bunch of guys and $150 seems very reasonable to me!

Wish I could make time to go get it, but just can't right now. $150 does sound like a great price. Sent email. My computer with PET crashed and I am in the process of reloading (right now), did you verify that was the correct part number for 968 batwing? Thanks again.

Yep, confirmed it on PET. I sent you an email, let me know if it didn't arrive.

Just think about the time you will save if you drive up there and get installed by the KCWS.

Actually this could be a good time to mention that a Eureka Springs get together has been suggested by the new owner of Raj's ex M030. Anyone interested. Scott I think Eureka is about 4 hours from you and similar from us.

Yeah guys, I want you to see that car for yourself and tell me what you think of its condition. I am very proud of its condition.

Sorry to go a bit off topic, but I have a related question.

Do the splitters for the 968 replace the batwing like they do on the 951? (i.e. the AIR splitter)

Nope. They go between the batwing and the bumper cover.

A couple of us made a Eureka Springs run last spring and had a great time (other than my wife hitting a telephone pole with my cab). We'd definitely be up for it again! Bruce, post a thread on the kcws website and I'm sure we'll get some takers.
