    In 91 I was building a new pulp mill in northern BC, living in an apartment complex, living the c-10 lowrider dream as a kid basically. A guy (from New Zealand), his wife and young daughter lived in suite below. He worked on mill construction also, but drove the rustiest most clapped out POS early 70's 1/2 ton, mustard crap yellow. Always working on it, and looking like it's on its last day. He comes over to my shiny hot rod after months of seeing me, and starts asking incredibly detailed and competent questions. Then shares his live story. He works all over the world on big projects, but loves cars. Here he had a Hemi superbird and Hemi factory wheel altered (I believe it was?) GTX. Both his cars were centerfold Hot Rod cars, and the deck car carrier he built, had a blown 440 which picturers showed beautiful. On days off he and family would drive to neighboring cities junkyards and buy certain engines, trans and rear ends. He'd package them in c-cans and ship home, were they could order parts for rebuild. Cool cool fella! If ever there was a story for don't judge a book by its color this was it! This guy bled Mopar! I often wonder what his collection looks like today.

    Great find. Amazing what a pointy nose and big wing on the back,and the aerodynamic back glass will do for the price of a '70 roadrunner. My lime 70 roadrunner was just a low buck 383 4 speed but with a 440 its a ball to drive and I'm not scared to drive it and park it at the grocery store. Not knocking the superbird. I love it! I'm 63 and remember working at a service station in the mid 70's one night and a guy came in there with a ragged out lime green superbird that had lost the rear wing and was in terrible shape and I plugged a tire for him. Those things were dirt cheap then like most musclecars. My how things have changed!

    My childhood best friend is the son of a Plymouth dealer. I spent a few days during the summer riding in a green bird like that one. It was in the William's carport for a few weeks here and there. Super cool memories. GTX's & Chrysler Imperials filled my childhood. I could recite the sales brochures. Probably would have made a decent parts gopher, at 8. Great time to be alive, it was.

    My neighbor down the street is the original owner of his 1970 Superbird HEMI. He ordered it with every possible option. It’s yellow, kept on a lift, has maybe 10,000 miles.
    He takes it out only a couple times a year for a cruise around the subdivision and for major shows
    It does not drive on the main road, it gets trailered everywhere, he’s terrified of bad drivers.

    This the car you buy for the look and the feeling of Richard Petty in 1970 when behind the wheel. It' may not be especially fast by modern expectations but it will spin tires and it's makes all the right noises for sure. I love the old Muscle cars. You really can't go wrong. If $200k is too much........just remember that virtually any carbureted, pre-computer era car can easily achieve 12s in the 1/4 miles thanks to modern roller cams and decent aluminum heads available today. A whole lot of 'em can be purchased in great shape for less than the price of typical new car. No they won't be this rare or nearly this super cool but they can make all the same noises and spin those tires just as easily as they go just as fast or faster than this warmed over 440 powered Super-bird. 4,000pds? ......my God that's a heavy car.

    I know where one is but its funny because the old lady who owns it uses it as a chicken coop and in the 80s they used the wing as a swing for a baby to rock it back and forth while doing yard work. Its dented up and the motor rumored to be a hemi was used as a weight on a blade to grade the roads. No one knows where the motor and blade went. Also the wing is broken off.
