I remember commenting on that YouTube guy that got a Hemi Superbird for a $130k that was a rebody back in February 2021, that it would have sold for $400k if original. A few on here said that was way high. $400k would be a good price now. But then again everything has doubled in price since...
Someone else can elaborate. Wasn’t that “standard” on the Superbird. Or was the 4 speed standard, and the automatic a no cost option, because of the deleted Dana 60 in favor of the 8 3/4.
I’m sure you’ve heard Chevy made X amount of 427 Corvettes. And there’s XX amount left. That’s not false. :D
They are much easier to produce than our Mopars with the 5th digit in the VIN.
I read somewhere a Ford guy said about Mopars and matching numbers… “why do you guys make it so hard on...
Not just Chevy, all GM cars up until the ‘72 MY with no engine designation in the VIN. I’m guessing you haven’t seen the recent sales of mid year 427 Corvettes. They make most of our 440 Mopars seem affordable.
I'm not a newbie and during the years I've seen silliness gone to seed over how many angels can dance on the head of MOPAR wrist pin.
I’ve seen Mopars with a matching number engine block, and 70% Asian sheet metal produced in 2018 sell for a higher price than an original Chrysler production...
That might be the silliest thing I’ve seen on here. No. I take that back. It is. :D
As I stated earlier. It’s a Mopar, and the VIN clearly states what it is, original block or not. The gutter # shows it isn’t just a VIN affixed to a non original body. Idk… A rebody with a VIN on the block, or...
I had a guy tell me that because I don’t have a broadcast sheet for my Charger, that the fender tag that reads E87 D21 couldn’t be used to authenticate the car. He said they reproduce fender tags. He forgot the transmission stamp. :p And I’ve owned the car since ‘85. The fender tag is original.
Idk… $200k for a non numbers block. Mind you, to me that’s a GM thing. Because until 1972, no GM muscle car or Corvette had the engine designation in the VIN. But it does matter when you are buying or selling a Mopar. I’d think the Superbird owners would think that is a more than fair price for...
Maybe they were repainted a different color. I never saw one at any of the shows I went to. At least I don’t remember. They offered white, it’s sad they didn’t offer black. The vinyl top would almost blend in.
Nice looking car. Buckets and a 4 speed… I’d want the console as well but, cool. I don’t think they made many in white. Not a color I’d choose first. And not a #’s OEM so it can be driven and beat on a bit. $200k. That’s almost double what it would have been just 2 years ago.
There was an orange with black interior Daytona in the Lansdale Pa. area back in 1982. It was pretty rusty and dented up then. I never got to talk to the owner. I was told it was a black guy and the car wasn’t for sale. I do remember the VIN started with XX. I wonder what ever happened to it.
Obviously he’s selling. But the one thing I don’t like about owning my Mopars is that’s all a lot of other Mopar guys talk about when looking at the cars. It’s as if they are self appointed judges, and they are detracting points from a car that isn’t for sale.
My ‘70 Charger and ‘Cuda E87 D21 are both J45. But I’ve never had the landyards on them. I’m just used to seeing them come out of the grill on other cars. I thought maybe that’s why the hood was a little higher. From that angle it doesn’t look as high, but it still appears to have a gap. I was...
I see in a couple of pix of Richard Petty’s Superbird from 1970... it has a third pin in the center to pull the hood flat. The pins are at the leading edge as well. That makes sense. You wouldn’t want that tearing off at 185MPH!
It wouldn’t be a problem for a street car that only sees maybe 80 MPH. I was just thinking if you got it up to 150 MPH or so. My ‘70 Charger is worse than a brick wall, and when I got it up to 125 MPH you could feel the front end getting light.
