Default 1970 Judge Wing

Hey Guys I just picked up a 1970 GTO Judge Rear Wing locally that a guy had and even had the original Box! It has the lines underneath and a small 1/8 Hole drilled in the bottom, My ? is how should my body guy prep this, Leave the hole there for moisture to escape. Also looks like plug marks underneath as well. I did ask him to find the box for me & he said he will look. It does look like a factory unit and the studs have a Blue plastic covering on them. I lucked out cause this is brand new! I will try & post Pics.

Leave the hole alone. It's more for pressure relief than a moisture escape. Dressing down the plug marks and using filler to smooth it all out just makes everything look correct.

I would disagree Mike - the originals were not finished smooth on the bottom.

Sorry, I was talking about the ground down plugs, not filling in the lines.
