There was a guy who lived on my street in Hamilton, Ontario Canada that had one of these in blue. We knew it was officially spring when it came out of the garage. Adults hated it, but the kids loved it.

I too, am from Hamilton, Ontario...back in the early '70s, the only Super Bird that I saw in the Hammer, was Yellow and wrapped around a light pole in the Centre Mall parking lot...as there was no Sunday shopping back then, I expect that buddy was testing it out and didn't count on that pole being there! Shame, though...what a waste of a great car.

Please excuse if this is too long-- I was privileged to drive one of these in 1970. It belonged to Bob Prince, the 'Voice of the Pittsburgh Pirates,' and Plymouth was his sponsor, so they provided him one. It was the hemi/automatic. Bob was a friend of my Dad, and when at our house for a party, he gave me the keys to take it for a spin. I was 23. It was Winter, so I carefully cruised through our neighborhood where the streets were still wet. Then, I turned out onto Bower Hill Rd, a 4-lane surface street, and punched it-- WOW! I had never felt anything like it-- the acceleration was so intense! Up one block to the light, where I slowly made the turn and quietly drove the one block back to the house. Headlights in my rear view mirror- sh*t! Yup, it was the black, unmarked Ford of the Mt. Lebanon police, who had been sitting in the hospital parking lot as I flew by. Gulp-- this was going to be embarrassing. But, I explained who the car belonged to, and I guess he was a fan, because the officer chuckled and let me off. Before driving away, he asked "So, how's it go?" I had to admit it was the most powerful vehicle I'd ever been behind the wheel of. Of course, I never told Bob of that near-miss.

@bruticusmagnus

NASCAR was told that the vents in the fenders were for clearance. The actual story is to reduce air pressure from the underbody. The tail was to produce down pressure. The reason it was so high was to keep the wing in the "clean air". The wing had to be above the roofline to prevent the turbulence created by the roof from interfering with dynamics of the tail. Chrysler brought a missile designer from their missile division to help with the design.

@jimcole5359
@jimcole5359 6 лет назад
The design of the tail was 2 fold. The horizontal area was adjustable and was used for downforce. The sides were there for straight line stability. That is the reason that the Daytona Charger's sides looked different. The scientists designed the Charger sides and the design team designed the Super Bird's sides.

@MrObsessiveakaPlastiksurgeon 6 лет назад
I was always thought the major reason the wing was so high in the air was so that the deck lid could be opened to a reasonable height. No one would buy a car with the trunk only being able to be opened a foot or so. :(

I remember going with my dad in 1971 who was a 40 yr GM employee to a Plymouth dealership. He test drove a lime green Superbird then a purple Duster. I remember practically begging him to buy the Superbird! He wound up buying a Mercury Cyclone 428cj. Many years later he would always tell me we should have brought that Superbird home!
@GiveMeYourNachosButthead
@GiveMeYourNachosButthead 3 года назад
Those Cyclones are still beauties, but man oh man, that is a mad shame he passed on the Super Bird!! What an awesome memory and experience though. There’s an older feller in my little Washington town that still has his matte black Super Bird that he bought back in the early 70s, and every year he brings it out to the local car show at our fairgrounds, and the crowds of people it attracts is amazing! Its a car he drove on the daily and I believe used to drag race, cause it has side pipes, a hood scoop, still the top-notch Cragar S/S rims, meaty tires in the back... but it isn’t overkill! And the paint is unfortunately chipped with a few dents in the car; but it gives it character and still is a mean machine that makes me drool!

That Mercury 428 CJ would have beaten either of the others in the 1/4 mile hands down. I have to admit the Superbird appreciated to super high prices making it a great long term investment. However, at the time everyone bought for the fun of it not ever thinking of the cars as an an investment. Hey, whatever floats your boat. Gary Flagg Buffalo, N.Y.

The Hemi's were not that great in pure stock. If you add open headers, that was a different story. That's why 440's were so popular with Roadrunners, GTX's and Chargers. The Hemi's weren't the substantial higher price. Today, they're worth a small fortune. Gary Flagg Buffalo, N.Y.

People like Petty, the Allisons, Jr. Johnson were good old southern boys who like to go fast and growing up in the south back in the sixties Richard Petty was my hero. My dad drove Mopar products and King Richard talked like everyone else I knew. Thanks to Mr. Dunham for restoring this car and bringing on the show.

@mattskustomkreations
@mattskustomkreations 4 года назад
N Cortez, you’re welcome. Something else not mentioned was the reason behind the vinyl top - because all real Superbirds had vinyl tops -is that that stock rear window was concave and not good aerodynamically. So they cobbled together a flush or slightly convex window in the back. Rather than taking the time to ‘pretty up’ the semi-rough transition / gap where the new window laid in, they just figured covering up the sloppiness with a vinyl top would be the most expedient thing to do.

I always learn something from these episodes. I never knew the front end and rear wing on these were metal; always assumed they were fiberglass. I also assumed the height of the rear wing was so that the vertical supports were bigger to add lateral stability on the track at high speed; like the rudder on a plane. I never considered that the trunk also wouldn't fully open if it were lower.

I was 9 or 10, at the "All American car show" in Brisbane, Australia in about 1985. There was talk of a "Superbird" that was going to arrive sometime that afternoon. I'd never heard of one before but people were saying how you have to see this car. Shortly after I notice bunches of people are walking over to something and people saying that the superbird had arrived. I look up to see just the wing floating above the rooftops of the other cars as it moved slowly through the crowds. Just looked like a fighter plane or rocket something. Brilliant. Way up there on my dream car garage list.

Fun Fact: those scoops over the front tires weren't actually for wheel clearance, that's just what Dodge and Plymouth told everyone. They are actually to help relieve built up air pressure in the wheel wells, reducing drag and creating downforce. Modern cars use this trick too, just look at the front fenders of something like a Porsche 911 GT3RS or a Dodge Viper ACR. There, you know that now.

I also used to see a Pantera parked at an apt. complex near my grade school. I really loved that look, classy and not too flashy. My father had a front porch barber shop and one of his customers had a Jaguar XKE too. Too much to deal with as a ten year old kid.

I was just out of high school and working at a Chrysler Plymouth dealer, in Grand Rapids Michigan, as a wash boy when these came out. We got two of these, a yellow one and a green one. It was my job to clean them up and take it over to the gas station to put gas in them. The yellow one was the first one and when I took it out to get gas the Grand Rapids Police stopped me for driving a "race car" on the street. It took showing them the maroni sticker on the window to convince them that it was indeed a legal car for the street.

I can still close my eyes and see the first one I saw in the street( and where it was in traffic) back in 1970. I was in the car with my parents at an intersection when one just like Jeff’s ( same color) was in the opposite lane of traffic, and I literally had a come apart: screaming out loud “ there’s a Super Bird”!!!! Both my parents saw the car and were astonished, but more so because of my reaction to it. I rolled down the window of our Chevy Caprice and began waving at the guy like he was a celebrity! I still see him waving back as he passed us at the intersection, as he knew he’d just made my decade. Thanks for the memory Jeff. You fortunate b$!::!!!

I'm fortunate to own one of the special order Superbirds in Corporate Blue (Petty Blue) with a 4 speed and white buckets, so I can attest to the looks the car gets on the road AND the heavy clutch. The Winged Warrors is the Superbird, Daytona, Charger 500, and Talledega (as it's an aero car also) club and annual dues are $35. The tire clearance story is accurate as the actual race car had larger tires and they massaged the metal fenders a bit as well. Anecdotally, there is belief that it allowed air under the car to escape which improved the overall aerodynamics at race speed. A minor note of Jeff's restoration, there should be some light over spray of the factory body color on the underside, but in all Julius looks to have done a very nice restoration and NO ONE should be ragging on you for something so minor. I only mention it because Jeff is showing a sincere interest in learning about his car. 1920 is the best guess with another 15 to Canada via Export. There's some arguments that the 15 export are in the 1920 - but its close enough in either to be considered accurate. Lime Light Green, Blue Fire Metallic, Tor-Red, Vitamin C, Alpine White, Lemon Twist Yellow, were the standard colors. For an extra charge you could get Corporation Blue, more popularly known as Petty Blue,, of which there are about 50 of those. There are 2-3 Burnt Fire Metallic Superbird's that were the result of a factory "fat finger" typo error on the paint coding. This was not an offered color and was produced only in error. While the cars were produced over about an 8 -10 week period they all show as being produced on Nov 30th, 1969. No doubt to ensure that they all fell within the NASCAR production rules. In addition, there were some minor emissions rule changes that were to take effect on January 1, 1970 which likely also contributed to the 1969 build dates. It's been pretty much debunked that units were converted back to Road Runners because they were difficult to sell, In part because a dealer would NOT want to add costs to a vehicle when they could just discount it and accomplish the same effect. Consider that the Superbird has Dodge Coronet Fenders and you start to understand that its more than just bumper, grill, and headlights to do a conversion. You would also have to do fenders and hood (because the Superbird hood is unique). The reason for the vinyl roof was to hide the rear window conversion body work. That is a metal plug welded in over top the old window area. Jeff referred to that in his comments. But it was cheaper to just slap the vinyl top on than to dress out the body work to a professional finished level. Congratulations on your purchase Jeff, and thanks for rescuing another Bird. Jay, as always you do a masterful job of letting the vehicle speak for itself and thanks for showcasing the Superbird. You were right on in sayng these cars evoke memories. In my own case, I remember riding my bicycle around the neighborhood and seeing this wildly bizarre vehicle with the picture of my favorite cartoon character on the wing. I instantly said "I want one of those" and about a dozen years later, I bought that same car of my youth. Come visit me in Atlanta and I'll take you for a spin!

The car is painted in burnt orange, with black stripes, and has a black bucket interior. It is equipped with P/S and drum brakes, no power... Someone wanted to go fast, but didn't care about stopping... The odometer shows approx. 35,000 miles... My GTX is pretty flawless... It's not a Superbird, but I'm glad to have it!!

I remember seeing at least 6 of these winged supercars sitting at a dealership back in 1970 for weeks - no one was buying them! Y'all had your chance and you muffed it! Kudos to those who did buy these cars.

My neighbor in Stratford Ct had a lime green one. He would pull out of garage every year wash it and put it back

In 1971 I was 12 years old and a car guy already. I was on a bowling team at the Key Bowling Alley on Horsham Rd in Horsham Pa. Right next door was a small family owned meat processing company. You know deer and local beef. Anything you could shoot really. Well the two brothers showed up with two brand new SB's. A green one and a yellow one. They languished as dealer stock for at least a year I imagine and were sold new in '71. So yes, I saw how cool these cars were and there was always and I mean always the knowledge that they were collectable. The cartoon cars as we called them at the time were not taken seriously at all especially the Pontiac Judge. 66 and 67 Chevelles ruled the street and and were always coveted. By ruling the street I mean they were just a really high quality car. Tough, tight and stable. Most feared were the 440 Mopars. The GTX was really the king of the street. It hooked and left but man they were scary. Brakes and handling were downright dangerous and yes I do know guys that died in them. Anyway I just wanted to throw that out there to let y'all know that even then we all knew we were living in very special times.

There were 2 of these that would roll through my neighborhood just outside of Flint, MI back in the early 70's. One of the neighbors was into hot rods, and had a '57 Chevy gasser and a beautiful 1937 Chevy hot rod. The guys were probably visiting him or stopping by for an impromptu drag race down Vassar road. One of the Super Birds was green, and one was the Vitamin C color. I've loved these ever since then.

Hi: The reason for the high wing was to place it above the turbulence into cleaner laminar air flow. It was also adjustable to create the correct amount of downforce for prevailing conditions at different tracks. Michael Rzewuski
