The Silverbird wasn't too successful, but man, did it look bad ass. I still have some vacu-formed bodies from the late 70's/early 80's of the Silverbird, for a 1/12 scale radio control race car, 1/32, and HO scale slot cars.
In one race though it beat all the Porsches at Laguna Seca -- the photo you posted is that race I believe .
