That car is listed on a another web site. Its even said by the guy who owns it now that its a Satilite, not a real superbird even. Fake, clone , whatever.

I thought the plug was removed along with the vinyl top .Have to look in my records could have sworn it was a legit superbird.The other superbird We found in TX was missing its rear window have to post those pictures

I say it's a real Super Bird.

Just look at the pic of my Road Runner & you can see the dutchman panel difference. The one posted above appears to have a very steep angle, & the regular one doesn't.

I found a better angle to compare & still say the first one is a real one.

Nah, no wing or cone for this one, I have the Daytona parts & will do it to the Charger. I've always liked the regular '70 Plymouth nose & miss the '70 GTX I had. I remember Pat & Steve both talking about you, but didn't realize you found this one. It is a nice car, & I saw the before & after pics & decided to go for it. So far I had the trans rebuilt, got a new clutch, pressure plate, scattershield, flywheel resurfaced & still need to get it back together.
