Superbird?

[LUCKINFOU]

I posted this over at Lateral-G I think some of you guys might like it here to So the other day I go to my friends shop Knowbody’s sheet werks. He told me that he was starting on this over the top Road Runner with a dash of Super bird thrown in for good measure. So I had to take some pictures. Now I can tell you Todd does some crazy stuff the Ganassie (name not spelled right) NASCAR Dodge engine will have a 5–speed backing it up with a 9” Ford. Ride height is 5” in front with 6” in the back.



Yes that is a bird nose!!



So is the wing





The wheels are BBS IMCA wheels Knock off Hubs



I will post some more

[LUCKINFOU]

Sorry some of the pictures are a little dark but you guys get it The rails are 2x3 .083 wall





Nothing will be lower than the pinch welds, Yes this will be a street car.





The front end will be a one off piece with tons of adjustment. With a Sweet Rack

this has the potential of either being really really cool, or really ugly. judging by the wheel choice, i think itll be awesome!

[MuscleRodz]

Is this the Superbird being built for Goldberg? It is getting a NASCAR motor I know.

[Ripper]

Nice project!

I have some CADfiles of the wheels if you want.
Any pics of the hubs or ideas of how you will design them?

[Memphis]

Thats awesome

I like a sweet rack too.

I think this car is going to be killer. Those wheels look great and I'm a huge fan of the superbirds

[SaturnVUEguy]

I really want to see more of this, especially with the NASCAR engine!

[Johnny C.]

I like a sweet rack too.

We still talking about the car?

I love these old mopars but I hate the schnoz on the Superbird. Otherwise it looks pretty cool!

[shortrack]

So......you got a car that was specifically built for Nascar.......it'll have a Nascar engine in it and your putting those wheels on it?......IMO nascar steelies should get the call.......

I always wanted to see someone shorten the nose on the superbird{not a real superbird of course}and try to get the proportions right.Chysler kind of hurried that one out,to spank Ford and Chevy on the big oval.The engineers,used off the shelf parts for fenders etc.I've helped fit a couple of those noses,man did they fit like crap.It would take alot of engineering to get the lines right if you shortened it.It would clean it up though.Ron

Hey Lou

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like it will be one nasty ride when it's done. Hell, it already looks mean.
