Default Proposed 1969 Sprint Firebird Hood Bird

Rocky Rotella just reminded me of the Proposed 1969 Sprint Firebird Hood Bird that I had forgotten about. (Along with a proposed Trunk Bird for the 69 Firebird 400's) Link below

https://www.pontiacv8.com/blog/2024/...rd-400deck-lid

It looks like both were proposals for the extended 1969 production models. While I think the 400's Trunk bird would be unattractive (to say the least) I think the bird with its wings wrapping around the Firebirds hoods Ironing board would have looked good on some color combinations.

What do you think? The Hood bird would have had similar colors to the Color rendition of the trunk bird in the 3rd attached photo.
