"SORRY NO TRADES AT THIS TIME,..." Stuff like this will put "The Troy-trading Outpost" out of business...  Seriously, looks like a 'Bird with nice potential......

I know it's a bit of a project but he should have put it back on rallyes for the sale. it looks bad with narrow black steel wheels.

also get a used/repop rear side marker lens. And call Dale's Cuda Shop or PCG in florida and buy nose masks. here's our car which cosmetically is not all that much nicer but it certainly presents itself better:

well. Its a cool car. And as long as all the bird parts are correct I guess it would be ok to get. But the location of the hole In the firewall where the headlight hoses go though I have never seen in that location. Its always higher up. The higher up dimple is where I always see it. So would that be a factory goof? or???

All you build code decipherers please tell me you wouldn't have to repaint it that color to restore it to original.

I'd guess so? That lower hole is where the tach wire is supposed to run through. I haven't seen a 'bird punched there before, either.

Hey Rob....., I think they all had black tops. Thank,s guy,s  i was thinking on making a offer but it might hit higher then my offer on ebay If It Keeps Going .I have been looking for just a driver for a wile cant seam to find anything - That i wouldn't bury my self in if i restored it.

it could be a rebody because of that hole In the wrong place. Notice I say "could".. Someone who really knows birds would have to inspect the car. But that raises a flag.

Hard call,you decide.It does however have the vacuum hoses on top of the inner fender where they belong,very few restorations I have seen have those in the right place.

I found this car in a barn in Cumberland Va. about 8 or 9 years ago. I traded a 1970 Road Runner for it. The car is a real Superbird. When I traded for the car I believe the inspection sticker was from 1978. The car had a 383 in it and the owners did not know what happened to the 440.(long story) I gave the car to my dad who lived in Florida as I already had a B5 Superbird. When my dad was told he had terminal leukemia we traded the car to Le Hodge at Hodge restorations for payment to restore my dads race car. Le sold the car to the Gemza's (Creations by Gemza) They had the car for several years and then traded or sold it back to Le (I think last year) I registered the car with the Superbird club in Wisconsin shortly after I traded for it. With all that being said if you are an interested buyer you now have some people to call. You can contact me as well and I will give you an honest description of what it looked like and condition when I took it out of the barn.
