I would like to see the paper work to as when they were building them to qualify for nascar back then they didn't have all of them built when the were taking the count so they would qualify & were running cars out the front door for the count & bringing them right back in the back door as if they were different cars. They did build them but when they did the count they only had about 3/4's of them built & some were pushed in without engines in them. Also How do we really know if it the last one without the Chrysler proof. There were a lot of these cars that were left over that they couldn't sell & they took the wings off & the noses off & turned them back into road runners & Cornets.What & how do you count them. My mother was the bookkeeper at a Chrysler/Plymouth dealer at that time & & that dealer had 3 of them as he liked high performance then & sold all 3 but 2 of them were totaled . 1 was turned over at about 135 mph as it went past my house late at night rolled over & slide up a hill for about 200 feet. The guy got a few broken bones But nothing serious. He got the 3rd one in stock. He had traded in a 67 Hemi GTX to buy it.

69 DAYTONA, great trivia info!!
Another bit of trivia was the fact that Superbirds were illegal in the state of Maryland due to the fact they did not have a front bumper. Chrysler purchased all the Superbirds back from dealers and owners and resold them in Florida. More trivia : Daytonas and Superbirds came with two different jacks in the trunk; a scissor style for the front and a bumper jack for the rear.

There is a man named Brinkley Moore who used to own a convertible 'Bird. Obviously not a factory production model, it was built from a B-body Plymouth before he got it. When I first saw it in the mid 90's it had a Super Bee bulge hood which matched the Dodge Coronet fenders that actually came on the Plymouth Birds. It was quite strange looking if you know what a true wing car should look like.
I have pictures that I took of a one owner "barn" Bird in 2006 that I might scan. A routine medical check up that soon turned into a 100K deal on a Superbird. |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
