xs650shawn Posted October 26, 2020 Author Posted October 26, 2020 Had a little downtime from work. Extended the front subframe to correct the wheelbase. Also fabbed a rear wing up.

randyc Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 I think the rear spoiler should be off the back like the Dart photo earlier. Just my opinion. Would give it a nod to the new tech while front has the nostagia. Had the Bird originally been designed for drag racing, might have had the lower spoiler? Idk...

It'll probably be further off the back. I just put it on where it would stay.

tubbs Posted April 19, 2021 Posted April 19, 2021 sweet build. looking great so far. this may help out a little. this was my johan superbird. there was a wedge taken out of the middle of the body to narrow it, a section taken out to shorten the body so it would fit on a pro mod chassis, real body bumps for tire clearance, custom made wing plus the spoiler out back. traded it off a few years ago. going top be a real nice build. i will be watching. sorry for dropping so many pictures, hope it helps with the build

The JoHan wing is actually in scale for both manufacturers. This is the Monogram Superbird with JoHan wing. Wait a minute!!!! This isn’t a real car?? I had to look for several minutes to see if it was real or not ?
chris chabre Posted November 13, 2021 Posted November 13, 2021 which wing upright o you need? I think I have one. Im actually planning on doing a tube chassis winged car myself

Zippi Posted November 14, 2021 Posted November 14, 2021 The mods look pretty good do far. It should look pretty sharp either way you go on this one.
