Don Currie is building complete fiberglass front ends for Superbird clones. No more rounding up Coronet hoods and fenders and then having to alter them. The clip is made up of individual pieces and should bolt up nice. He's going to put the first one on e-bay just to see what kind of interest it generates. If anyone's interested, they can contact him at  www.islandserve.com/~dc99/.
He's located in Canada, north of Seattle, WA. He also builds the wings, wing washers, braces and the back window plug.

No, I think that some of the parts that he built for my bird may be on that website though.  My car is here at my shop at home. Unfortunately, I haven't had time to work on it or Howie's daytona lately. I've been busy driving my '71 cuda to car shows and cruise-ins and I've been working on my hemi chal convert clone. I did fire the 426 hemi up Friday night for the first time. I can't wait to drive that bad boy. It's going to be interesting to see which car's more badass, the hemi convert or the 440-6 superbird clone. I've put the bird and my daytona clone on the back burner temporarily until my new shop is built.

Shipping would be the killer. Don had to cut my bird nose into two pieces to be able to ship it by UPS. Otherwise, the shipping costs would have exceeded $500 just for the nose. I think the total shipping costs for the nose, fender extensions, wing and wing washers was close to $400. I don't think I'll buy too much stuff out of Canada from now on. I would bet that the shipping on that front end will be over $1000. I'll try to remember to ask Don how much it ended up costing the guy to ship that assembly next time I talk to him.

Contact Don Currie. He's a true wingcar nut. He also builds some cool Batmobiles.
