THat assumed "retro" 12cil looks so strikingly purposeful and modern/futuristic overall, and it has menacing proportions.
Also, especially unlike the C8, it has the headlights properly in front of and not above(!) the wheels, which I find rather odd.
Do you address to the wobbly wheels?
I think I showed you the problem zone.
If the wheels go off a strip of carton should do.
Probably they are just slipped on, but a tight fit.
A friend is working on one, but no tutorial yet.
He noticed that the black strip below the headlights is missing.

The front sits too low in the springs.
There are also bonnet supports, I didn't notice at first.
Is the C8 by Spark?
The Bird could be an amateur racer around 1960.
The old Revell mold well captures the shape and stance.
