If I owned that car, I would remove that Toronado front nose and buy a Dayclona nose for it. Then it would be a great car in my opinion.

you would have to put the corvette loop bumper back on it . I'm sure mike can help you with that .

I think it looked better before they cut the grille in to it and removed the loop bumper!

Interesting how these stories get started. As soon as I found out the Superbird I used to own had lived in J.J.'s "museum" for a while (after I sold it) I wondered what kind of stories were made up about it.

Yep. First pic is what it looked like when I bought it. The second is supposed to be my old bird, and is supposedly after it was bought from JJ. I sold it to a guy in Tennessee. I guess he sold it to JJ. I don't know who redid the car

cool pics how long ago did you sell it , do you regret it ?

Oh sure. That, and the 1 of 27 69 runner verts I had. And yeah I'd like to have them both back. Probably not gonna happen though. I posted to a wing car site or two trying to get info on the car. Whether it was still around. What condition. Never asked about it from the perspective of "I want to buy it back"

Finally someone posted that pic and said they thought it was my car (yes, I have the VIN). They thought it had gone to the east coast. North Carolina or something like that. But no one seemed to know for sure.

I bought it off a used car lot in a Dallas suburb for less than $800. Drove it home in the snow. I sold it in 1980? I think it was

I just wanted to know if it was still alive and well, and if it had been resurrected or not. I'm not in a position to buy it back

Agreed....Bingo ! hotrod 98 !......... I would purchase and reproduction nose cone and park it with the rear facing me, so I wouldn't have to look at it till the new nose arrived, ......But that's just my opinion, and with that and 50 cents I can get a cup of coffee. :lotsocoffee:
