I wish i was making a photo album.
My car is over heating on the freeway so i did a search and a lot of people said you need the air dam.So i checked for mine and there was nothing at all that looked like an air dam on the car so i would just like to see one.
Cheers

It's a short black plastic sheet that comes straight down about 6 inches directly underneath the radiator. It directs airflow underneath the car up through the radiator.

Part number 10017673.

Thanks guys

Hey, w got one off an early to mid 80's Olds Cutlass for the 83 Z, two of the 6 (?? - can't remember now) hole lined up and the others were easy to drill in the plastic. $5 at the junkyard for a black plastic air dam that is about 1 ft. wider and 1 to 1.5 inches taller/lower than stock. It looks and works great. When I get ready to put the red IROC on road I'll do the same thing if I can find one.
