I've heard of this...I'm pretty sure there was someone who did this in the readers ride section of mopar muscle last year or two.
Yes, the superbird used the 70 coronet front fenders and a modified hood. Should be no problem to make this switch, but i'm sure you can find all the right sheetmetal on ebay.

Yeah the 70 Coronet front fenders and valance panel lights where used on the Super Bird. I think the hood was a modified coronet hood but I am not sure on the hood. The Super Bird used a cap on the hood.

You could easly do a clone Super Biard.
