| 21" wing span?  Go over 110 MPH and you'll start to get lift.  Could be great 
for gas mileage and it takes the burden off the front end. :>)

John, the '55-56 Chevy hood bird is aprox. 21" wing tip to wing tip 
(VERY BIG!).  The wing tips roll down to the hood and have 2 mounting 
screws each.  The center fuselage also has 2 mounting screws and a 
vertical fin which stands about 4" high.  If memory serves me it is 
about 9" long from front to back with the wings being about 2-1/2" 
wide.
If you have an extra one like this PLEASE let me know!
