In the fall of '72, my dad and I went to the Plymouth dealer to shop for a new family sedan. The dealer and my dad were pals and he took us to his back lot and showed us a new, unsold 426 hemi/4 speed Superbird. Couldn't find a buyer for it. He offered it to my dad for well under invoice, but dad told him my mom would kill him if he brought it home. Dad had already almost been murdered over trading the family station wagon for a new 'Cuda 340/4speed a few years prior! Thanks for the memories!

Fantastic Plymouth that looks like something between the spaceship or submarine! I can't imagine how wonderful was to see it in the street many moons ago when it was out. Thanks guys!

This was awesome. Sometimes it’s not about making the deal. It’s about the people and the cars. Great production and video BTW, thank you for sharing

Amazing to see the panel fit from the factory on these cars compared to cars today.

My neighbor has a Superbird that is the same color. His has a 440 4 barrel, with a 4-speed. It came with 3.54 gears, but he had me put 4.10 gears in it. I rebuilt the 4-speed, with some improvements added.

Since a 1969 Charger Daytona Hemi 4 speed just sold for $3, 000, 000, I would say the market is back.

I'm surprised that he let you take it out on wet roads. I would have told you to come back when it was dry. For me, for that kind of money, if it doesn't have 3 pedals on the floor, I'd pass. Nice car.

Hi Peter. Been watching your show a long time. What do you mean a ground up rebuild never drives the same? Do they squeak, do they handle worse or better. Wish I had the chance to compare myself in person to understand what you mean. I believe you have a valid point knowing your deep understanding from restoring and own personal knowledge. Thank you for years of great content.

$125, 000 and you really thought he’d let it go. Friends or friends I would walk you outside and shut the door

So True on the driving part....I have had alot of chevelles through the best was a 1968 chevelle Malibu 4-door 307/glide car that I bought from original owner/Lady with a tad over 26, 000 on it....Closest thing i ever owned as far as a New one would had been....ALOT diff. than this Jewel for sure. Only original once like they say.

They couldn't sell these when they were new. Dealers actually removed the nose and wing to sell them.

Hopefully the owner hung on to it and sold it during the bubble mkt of 21-22. If not, he'll be holding on for sev more yrs as the mkt is headed down and hasn't reached bottom yet, let alone rebounded.

Take your sunglasses off when negotiating a deal
Very unprofessional

He’s going to sell a car that can never be replaced to buy a car that can. He doesn’t deserve that super bird. Not sure what to think of either of these guys, they are dealing with cars that have real souls but act like they are flipping Hondas. He floats the excuse that Mopars never came back (their value) after the 2008 when collector cars regained some sanity. Rare Hemi Cuda are going for millions so we know he’s wrong. They are check book hot rodders, that feel kinda greasy.

I would never sell a Superbird to get a GT unless it was an original GT40, but you would have to add a buttload of money to get one of those.
