Just me!, but if it was my Superbird, I would just drive the wheels off of it.! I would love to have a daily driver Superbird with modern suspension and drive train.
DRIVE EM, DONT HIDE EM.

If he's such a perfectionist, why is the dust trail stripe on the yellow '70 Road Runner where it is? Why did he say air conditioning wasn't available with a 440 and an automatic transmission?

He said no A/C with hemi, or 440 4-speed, but you could get it with an auto. I'll watch it again, but I rewound it 3-4 times and I'm pretty sure he said it wasn't available with a 440 4-speed, automatic, Hemi, 6-pack or "anything that runs hard". Granted, I was tired, but I don't think I was that tired.

FYI: the 4spd was available with 383 and AC on some applications

Although on one of his pre-commercial quizzes, he did say that stock manifolds made more power than headers...

The body of Superbirds were painted at Lynch Road in Enamel. Fenders, hood window plug installed and panted at Dodge Main. They were missing only the special bird pieces like nose, fender scoops, and wing. As running & driving cars they were sent to clairpoint for these special parts installation, that were painted in lacquer. The paint didn't match too well and didn't hold up to time and elements like the rest of the car. here's a good read on Superbird assembly line procedures if interested? http://www.wwnboa.org/patik.htmMike Great article, thanks for posting that! It mentions in the article my Dad's job...he worked at the Highland Park offices, in the Product Scheduling Dept. as a computer operator, making the IBM TAB cards with the vehicle VON/VIN info on them. I actually have a few cards from him stashed away somewhere.
