That is a pretty cool concept. I would love to see it finished and in person. Thanks for posting!

Oh man, not feeling that, at all. I can hear the Mopar loyalists crying now. Unique for sure though!

Yah, that's not looking so hot. The front looks like the monorail at Disney World.

Very cool concept and looks like it was pretty well executed. I personally think it's just as quirky and goofy looking as the original cars so it works (from this angle). I could see that painted and striped as a Petty tribute car easily.

I'd love to see a side profile. By stretching the nose, the car may not have that massive look through the doors the stock cars have. We'll see.

Good to see people trying out crazy ideas like this.

Not a big fan of the grill opening shapes (upper and lower), they could use a little refinement IMO.

are they making another CARS movie?
the front just looks like it smiling. Its got to much of a peak in the front.
I think it should be more blunt nose giving it a more original look.

The thread title needs to be changed to Challenger Daytona. A Superbird is a Plymouth. I'm torn-cool idea, I'm not so sure of the outcome. As long as the owner is happy, that's what counts.
