Nah I wouldn't  :slap: you. I just wanna see the car. :)

Heck I love all C500's and Daytona's. Haven't met one that I didn't like yet.

Other cars, well thats a different story. I will admit to being a bit fond of some other cars, but not too many. For some odd ball reason I really like the 38 Dodge Coupe as well. Don't know why, but I do. I also love the 63 Fury body style, as well as the 62 Polara, as well as the 57 Chrysler 300. But no E bodies.

Yuppers that would be me. Call me odd ball, but I like what I like.

A Superbird does have a wing, but its just not the same as a daytona. To me its not even close. But that again is just how I feel.

Thanks, I like her too...  :yesnod:

Although I call her Bullitt, the only connection to the movie is the triple black color.  It is an original Triple Black Hemi car...  :icon_smile_big:

Hey Allen,

Being way too young to buy a car in the early 80's will eventually have some advantages too.  :2thumbs:

I purchased all of my SuperBirds in the 70's, sold everything by January 1983, and I have my AARP card in my wallet.  But I don't qualify for the Old Fart Discount either.  (I'll start qualifying at some places in 3 years and a couple months.)

Hey Allen, do you have any pics of your '70 Charger? I don't know if I've seen any of that one yet. :)
Cool thread, I really enjoy the pics of all the neat toys & that big garage. :cheers:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I started going through the items stored in the C500... most came with the car, but a few items were stashed in the car by me during my last move.

So thats were I put those NOS moldings...

Also, a picture of the original Data Plate.

Thanks, the Daytona is a 440 Automatic & the Superbird is a 440 4 Speed...

I don't have the Data Plate for the Superbird, but believe the original owner still has it... but I am not sure.  I need to contact him again.
I DO have the Superbird's Broadcast Sheet tho...
