Baz, in an early issue of CF mag there was a guy with a reddy/orange mk1 with bubble arches and a 2.2 slant 4 lotus engine in it, he had a genuine mk1 RS boot spoiler. Think his name was Chris Evans if i recall right(not the ginger haired one :D )

so they definatly exist :D

Prefer the ones similar to the Mk2 RS spoiler (Studs are in a different position).

 

They are rare as rocking horse sh*t!!!

 

There was a pic of one on Bebo but can't find it now

There was one in an issue of Ford Heritage years ago with front and rear, I thought it looked poo tbh, but the Ducktail looks nice on that big winged racer.

The duck tails are an after market add on and they're a personal taste thing, but there were rubber boot spoilers similar to the mk2 spoiler available for the mk1. They were far more common on the continent than here (though still not that common there either). I saw one come up on eBay a year or so ago but interest was limited for a couple of reasons

 

1) People weren't sure whether it was genuine or not

 

2) The general opinion seemed to be that it didn't suit a mk1 anyway.
