At $119K?? I don't call that a 'way in'. I call that a lose-lose.
Never, ever argue with an IDIOT. They will drag you to their level and then beat you with their years of experience

If it was as simple as tossing another $130K at it and making money, someone would do it. Doubt its that simple. Looks like a better starting point https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/dealer/plymouth/superbird/2790157.html

MUCH better starting point. 150k for that might be a heck of a deal

I sold my Superbird in 1987. Sold it for $14K and it was freshly restored. I made $10K on it because I bought it dirt cheap and I did everything except spray the paint and build the automatic transmission. Now, you couldn't buy a rusty fender tag from a Superbird for that....lol. I'm glad I can say I owned a real wing car in my lifetime, but I have no desire to ever own another one. I sold it to make the down payment when I built my house, so....no regrets!  After you own a rare Valiant wagon , nothing compares
The lips of fools bring them strife, and their mouths invite a beating.Proverbs 18:6

I can honestly say the winged cars have never really popped my buttons so to speak. For myself , I would much prefer a convertible. And Having owned 4 or 5 of them over the years, I just might someday add another one to the stable. Maybe. maybe not

I have a different story: bought my Superbird in 1992 and never sold it..and never bought a house because didn't have a desire to own one...but I guess if I sold the Superbird now, I could own a house. but neither one can be taken with you once leaving this planet...so doesn't really matter

So there’s a new post about the 150k ‘bird…. Sounds like the price went up to 210 That's not the Hemmings ad $150K Bird, that car was a lot nicer. (it was a bench seat auto IIRC)
