1 of 408 Produced

Meet Super Bird The Ultimate Road Runner

Plymouth wanted only one thing when they made this car, Richard Petty. This was the only thing that
would make him come back. Mr. Petty was not too happy with Chrysler for not letting
him race the slick new Dodge, so he went to the blue oval and that left Plymouth without
a big-time driver. Well, in mid 1969, they showed Mr. Petty what they had in mind
 if he came back, and the rest is history.





The 1970 Plymouth Super Bird is the wildest car to ever come out of Detroit. Racing bred and
wind tunnel designed, the car was a winner on the design table. Chrysler exec's were not to happy with
the looks of the Daytona, so when they started working on the Super Bird, they wanted a slick car that
was refined and had the look of a winner.





My Super Bird is the 252nd bird built of 408 total 440+6BBL Auto SuperBirds. It is equipped with a
440 C.I. Super Commando V-8 and 6 BBL Carburation. A A727 Torque Flight Automatic Transmission
tied to a Trak Pak 3.55 / 8.75 rear helps this Bird get up and go. This Bird was painted in 1982 and
preserved to factory original specs.

This Super Bird is very special as it has never been restored and shows only 26000 Miles. Purchased New in 1970 at
 D'Lux Motors in Columbiana Ohio. All options on this Super Bird are as delivered. In 1972
 this Super Bird suffered an accident that commissioned Frederick's Chrysler
Plymouth in Salem Ohio to open the parts book and replace components in the front.
Unique parts were used from the 1971 Chrysler parts catalog to repair the damage.
The most obvious is the front seal that was added in late 1970 to the catalog.
