I could try asking Ted Janak in Spring TX. He could covert the hood and fenders for a superbird

[RallyeMike]

Hmmm.. Seller: "should I sell this car for $400, part this car out for $800, or sell it to the scrapper for $65?."

[oldcarnut]

Wish something like that had come up in my area.  Got almost that in one fender after adding the shipping costs 

[djcarguy]

Ouch that hurts.  I love '70 Coronets and there is a TON of good parts on that car - bumpers, grilles, taillights, trunklid, etc.  

The trim on the leading edge of the splashpan is a very sought after item and could make up half the selling price.

[nascarxx29]

front edge splash plan moulding found on RT and the 500s .I sold just that for $100.00.The plastic fillers behind the bumpers is highly sought after

[hemi68charger]

Emailed him... Maybe I can save a lot of good parts from the crusher...

[hotrod98]

If I still lived in Houston, that car would already be at my house. I paid that much for a real nice set of fenders a few years ago. It's about a nine hour drive one way for me now.
 
As for the back glass, seems like we determined that it was too wide to use a bird back glass. May have been too square as well.
Mike G. should be able to fill us in on that. Surely he's checked on that at some point in time.

[Lighthorseman]

I sure hope someone puts that car to good use.  I could use the fenders, but he's just too far away.

So the Superbird hood is a Coronot hood, cut down and extended?

Thanks

Yes the flat Coronet hood is the donor for a Superbird.

[troy.70R/T]

what a shame

[hemi68charger]

Never got a reply back from my email........ 

[nascarxx29]

I got no email back from Ted either

[hotrod98]

That guy has no clue as to what he has there. The grilles are worth quite a bit even if they need minor repair.

Yes Larry, the Coronet 4 dr rear glass is HUGE compared to the Superbirds, .....the Superbird glass is an odd animal in shape, not much out there that lends itself to imitating the bird plug/glass in shape and curvature

Thanks Mike.
Nowadays there are no salvage yards left where we could even go look for something similar, whether it be mopar, ford or gm.  Even here in the south the yards have crushed everything since the steel prices went up.
