I took it to mean do any celebrities own an aero Mopar??

69_500

Yeah I agree that is what was asked but I was answering in a round about way. His is car is famous thus one would deduce that the owner is then famous too right?

Ghoste

Okay, gotcha now Danny.  I'm a little slow tonight pal, I get one of these. :slap:

I know of some famous people who own Chargers, but I can't seem to find any famous people who own Aero cars.

Richard Petty has two Superbirds.   One race and one white street car.   I guess he would qualify as "famous".  

Ray Evernham has one of each of the aero cars.  

What about the MMA or wrestler guy,  John somebody or other...?   Didn't he have a Superbird?

Does Jay Leno have one?  He has one of everything else, doesn't he?

actually to me his collection isnt that great, mostly old crappy classics. just one Hemi car, 66 coronet, 2 vipers.way to many bentleys and bugattis and duesenbergs. I am partial to the Citroen SM and a ford GT40 and a 427 cobra are always cool--

no birds or daytonas and not too many muscle cars.

If you own a wing car, or a C-500,  you are or will be famous.

Quite a few of the older cars Jay has were considered high performance cars of their day.    I think they would surprise you with how well some of them can go.

I did not know John Cena had a Superbird. I met him a few years ago and would have liked to get the scoop on his car.

I own a rusty Daytona. James Hylton #48 its not running unless you are Fred Flintsone and use your feet.

no they wouldnt, and sure there are some cars he has that I would love to own, lambo miura etc. but all in all, I just dont like early cars as much as I like 57-72 years. if I ever have money to spend on old cars, 99% of them will be from that time.Cenas cars are much more interesting to me; daytona,superbird, GTO judges,Buick GSX, even a Cougar Eliminator. much more fun to build and drive, in my opinion.

Leno isn't really a musclecar guy, I think his collection just revolves more around things that either fascinate from a mechanical/engineering point of view to just cars he likes for no obvious reason.  He is just as likely to have an AMC Spirit parked beside a Stanley Steamer.  Thats the impression I get.

I went to a book signing were Leno was at .And I was wearing my personalized air brushed worded 69 Daytona t shirt.And he asked me if I had a superbird.I asked him what he had at that time he just got a green 66 Hemi Coronet Galen recommended.I saved my meeting on VHS .His thing is cars that where ahead of there time in there day :Twocents: A observation that Jay wears light blue shirt and dark blue pants and Galen does also.His book was a great read

Wow.  Maybe some day, I can be famous like Stuart.  :popcrn:

Why not try and be the next Elvis or the new Beatles?   No one will ever be as famous as Stuart.
