Thanks! That is kinda weird. They would look badass in that color.

No.Not sure why.

Because "Plum Crazy" only came on Dodges.  ;)

Not sure why In-Violet wasn't available on Superbirds.

It does seem strange that black was available on Daytonas and not on Superbirds. There must be a good reason.

Here, this is "plum crazy" correct but that's where being correct ends.


Now for '70, pc was available for the Dodges'. :stirthepot:

This has to be the bird I have been trying to buy for 12+ years... Does anyone know where this pic was taken ?

This picture was taken in London England in 79/80/81 on Hyde Park Corner. The Bird is a factory FY1 Lemon Twist 6bbl auto car, that belonged to the late Alan Gould for many years. Last I heard it was in Belgium and had been painted the correct yellow. The 69 R/T was my car.

just throwing this out there, but maybe it wasn't available due to the superbirds having a vinyl top and the black and purple would have been to dark to compliment the vinyl top?   :shruggy:

i think they should have offered Bahama yellow. :yesnod: I wonder how much it would affect the value on a real superbird if you changed the color but everything else was done factory show correct?? :shruggy:

My old 340 Demon was "butterscotch" - same color, I think that would look awesome on a 'Bird - never even thought about that until now.....

Not a fan of the Butterscotch but I really don't know why Black wasn't available?
The guy that built the Black car with the Black decals has a bad ass piece!
