Just posted not long ago. Called and sounds like resellers. Guy thought the 440 was the second highest engine bottom below the six pack.
Well if you're going by cubic inches.. :lol: A lot going on with that Bird... 2 speed wiper motor, funky upper rad hose, custom air cleaner install..
"Selling our entire collection" :smilielol: I can collect other peoples adverts toooo.
:popcrn:
If I'm not mistaken the park lights should be clear not orange. I think those are off a coronet or somethin.
If the listing is legitimate, it seems like an OK asking price for a driver Superbird these days. Wonder what a physical inspection would reveal? I see the original hood has been replaced, making me wonder if it was hit or if it was a rusty car before the restoration. Would be nice to get the VIN... :yesnod:

Also MANUAL steering...OH MY! :hah:
Like I said.. a LOT. :lol:
Cheese-ball battery cable ends......also, they didn't finish painting the black around the nose decals at the headlight bucket openings.....
I bet that car's been wrecked in the front end due to hood replacement and park lens replacement also

Nose appears to be a different color, but could be just my monitor?
We could go on and on about it. Is it rebodied, or a clone? 2 speed wiper, manual steering, rocker covers on the wrong sides, breather not hooked up, etc, etc.

No bezels on the nose....... Guess the VIN would illuminate some things...

Among the items you listed, I would also venture to say the nose is fiberglass due to the thickness around the directional openings, and the latch tray also appears to be fiberglass as well...
As for the other comment posted about the nose being off colored/not matching..... that's OK, they didn't match when new either...

Beat me by a minute ! :icon_smile_big:
Also wrong radiator, + no shroud, engine probably a '69 based on PVC, Breather location and mostly dip stick tube location.
4 speed or auto?

Looks like auto on the column as seen through the windshield
Bryan
collum auto it looks, pic from pass side with gas pumps behind. was studying pixs too, because did not see fill tube . :2thumbs:
I don't see the vacuum hoses coming out of the firewall or running down the drivers side inner fender for the headlight buckets......
or am I that blind??
Bryan
Maybe why they don't work and are jammed half way.
I don't see where they come out of the firewall......maybe not a real 'Bird then?
Wrong radiator,... because of wrong water pump.
