I worked with a guy , mid 50’s maybe anyway- his dad bought a heavy spec yellow super bird and kept the miles low.. his sons now own it and take it out occasionally... it’s all original and has 47k miles - just regular people with an expensive car in the family.
Same, always thought they looked goofy with that nose and tall wing.... but yea the plain white paint and old school black steelie wheels helps tone it done to a nice look.
Nice to own a bird for nostalgic reasons but not a good drivers car by all accounts?? Love seeing Richard not so Beer-ed up, he can come across a bit of a knob when he is drinking n doesn't show so much of his car passion. Thanks guys 👍
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!
I remember a lady my mom worked with, her husband had a yellow super bee. I loved that car. Her husband took me for a ride in it on RT 208 in NJ. He floored it and got chirps from the tires in the 1st 3 gears. That thing was awesome!
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.
@@shanefraser7764 Cool Shane. Would be great to know what this fella has done last 20+ years. He had a British bed truck, he converted into car carrier with a big 440 installed. If I remember it was black. He was building a 1/4 mile drag car here in Canada in early 90's, to be eventually shipped back home. Super nice man/family, living poor life on the road, living large at home :-)
@@mikespriet And I've always wanted to see a tastefully modified one like the white one.

Sweet! My Cousin and her husband had a B5 Blue Superbird with white interior, AT, 440 6Pack (dealer installed the 6 pack as it came with a 4 brl). They bought new in Tennessee as they couldn't find one for sale in Indiana at the time. Still kept the 15" original rallye wheels and poly-glass tires for it, under 55k mi, 1 repaint,. Last I know of the car is on the East coast in a collection.

Hi Richard that’s a very beautiful car you just bought for your collection it’s a master piece of a car!! Love the sound of it at the big spoiler and stuff!!!!
I have a friend that had one of these cars and he said by far out of all the high end supercars he had the super bird drew more attention than anything he had ever owned Beautiful car hope you enjoy it And how cool did it look Being towed by trx
Love me some Mopar, a friend of mines dad bought a white superbird pistol grip 4 speed in 1970 and he let his son drive me around when we were both 13 years old ,he would ease 1st gear then slam 2nd, floor it and light up the tires.
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.
There was a guy in Alberta, Canada that had flawless versions of every color of superbird. Not sure if he still has them all, that was a few years ago.

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.

@dutch0770 because Richard has the respect from people as he's trusted. it's proven in the video. Ignorance is a bliss. we won't get into the fact Richard got his start from Chip Foose which is a legend in the game one of the most respected names in the industry.
Nice Ride , glad too hear what he paid for it, helps us know the value of these DREAM CARS, i hate when they dont reveal the price it drives me nuts, MY DREAM CAR is a 1971 Cuda ,the motor size dosent matter too me so a 340 , 440 would be good but my dream engine for that car is the Eleaphant 426 Hemi.
I love it!!! And Notice how many times Richards right hand was itching!? That's an old saying for the millianals, left hand itches money coming in, right hand, your spending 💰🤑💰🤑
The white over spray was stock Chrysler poor quality control.These cars were rattling junk new . They’re better than new now.Bark it in 3rd! 😅Love it.This car looks ready to race!Nice car Richard 🎉
No, the scoops on the fenders are not air extractors. When racing with giant racing tires, the tires would rub the top of the fenders under cornering. The solution was to cut a hole in the top of the fender and cover it with a scoop.
Curious if the gas monkey garage complex was there in 1983-84. I had a 69 grand prix I bought in grand prairie that had a blown 400 so I took it to guy in the area of Irving tx off I35 but I can't recall the name or exact location. The end of this video jogged my memory and the strip side of the building is real familiar to me. Even the old tree.
never really loved these cars either -but growing up seeing the real thing race back at Riverside as a kid- this Bird's style is real deal NASCAR of the day - the seller knows what's up. Legit
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.
Watching these two interact is a breath of fresh air. You can tell this guy is the real deal.

Looks like a really nice car to drive 😊 LOVE the color white
Never seen a white one before very very cool
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.
Sweet enjoy your new ride. Hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving.
