I have to find their card (I may have posted the info someplace on this site before?) but there is a place that specializes in Air Grabber restoration and can fix the air box.  Their name might even be Air Grabber Restoration.  I'll try to find the info for you.

hmmm, I wonder why it has sublime on it  :scope:

Quote from: C_stripes on October 24, 2007, 10:27:17 PM
Just a guess, But if you look at the Motor trend test video there is a sublime 70 6 pack post runner that they are testing, Yellow does not show up well on film.   It was yellow first, Then painted by, looks to be factory in sublime. Then a shit job of yellow later in life.


Jeremy

And it was PROMO video. Not motor trend.  Sorry.

Before anyone starts saying I am just blowing smoke out my ass about these two cars possibly being the same. Here are just a few commonalities;
1. Rear Bumper Guards (very rare on 70 runners)
2. two tone white and black interior
3. Air Grabber
4. 440+6
5. black vinyl roof
6. Post
7. Rallies
8. Lighted hood
9. Buckets

And there are other things too.   Not to mention that the ad car was painted sublime by what looks to be the factory. I wish it had a good shot of the interior. If it showed the driver door I could tell you without a doubt. The ad car has something I have never seen on another runner. No one will ever know one way or the other for sure I guess.


I will also post a recent pic of it.

I was looking close at the video you just posted and noticed something.  I'm not 100% positive but at the 1:12 mark it shows the car taking off and a shot of the passenger side of the car.  If you look below the lower body line on the door you can see a strange change in the shadowing of the lower door.  It's almost as if there was a crease along it and that would explain the shadow effect.  I'm a body guy and it just doesn't look like a shadow should without a crease.  Just a thought.  It's probably means nothing.
When I die I want to go like my Grandfather did, quietly in his sleep.  Not screaming like the passengers in his car.

my superbird clone was a 1970 rr black on black 383 4 speed post car.

I spoke with an old friend Scott Smith from Harms Auto and he says that they are the same car. I think it is way cool.  I hope that the car gets finished this year.

No problem.  I am sure I will post more.  I love this car and have been involved with it since it was found. 

One day I was just sitting at home and my friend Neil called me. He says that he has just found a V code 70 post runner and it has job 183 advertising on the tag. I am thinking that that is very odd. So I ask a few questions and he starts telling me about the car a little and I tell him to stop. I go grab the ad from my room and start describing it back to him.  He asks how I know and I tell him I am looking at the car. It was fun. I went down and saw it one time before he could buy it. Then a few weeks later he calls and tells me the guy said he would sell, that night myself and a friend go to his house and we take of for the rez.  It was awesome to pic that car up.

The ad picture Mike posed wasn't a post car.


Hey Jeremy, what happened to the fe5 Hemi Cuda that your buddy sold?  I heard it was backed into something.  It's coming back out here local.  I thought I heard the new owner owned it already once.

The new owner also restored and sold one of the Pilot '70 Cudas here a while back at BJ.

How many of the cars has your buddy sold?  Is he still selling them all off?

C_stripes

It was very minor on the 1/4. I can post a pic.  I don't know who or where it is going. I know that the guy that is buying it has a t/a and an AAR.
The only car he has left that he is selling is the 70 challenger r/t see 440 six pack car.  I wish I had the cash. I would love that. So far we have sold the Daytona, Challenger R/T, Coronet R/T, HEMI 'cuda, 70 Super Bee V code 4spd, 69 Charger R/T and many others.

The cuda has not left yet. I know when Neil got it, it came out of FL.

I have a video that has Factory Mopar Commercials and one thing on there is a really long (10 minutes or better) video of the Rapid Transit cars with no sound, they include a K5 (Burnt orange) inside and out 70 GTX a Sport Fury GT, the INFAMOUS 70 Barracuda Gran Coupe that was supposed to have the Hemi, the red 70 Hemi Cuda that was the first built and a LIMELIGHT 70 Six barrel Road Runner with Air Grabber. Most likely the same car.

Is there anyway I could get a copy please?  I would be more than willing to pay.

Thanks, Jeremy

Looks like a dent to me too but it's hard to tell.

1970 RR commercial FJ5 car  back bumper has the guards

The ad car has rear bumper guards and so does the sublime one. They are a very rare option.
