Petty's Bird

I dislike writers that have conflicting title/content. This one is confusing to me...he owned it, but it was not his personal car.


From the title:

Richard Petty–Owned Plymouth Superbird​


From the article:

The car holds notable provenance, having been displayed at the Petty Museum and featuring cosmetic tributes to its famous association. These include embroidered seats, a signed glove box, and special decals honoring Petty’s NASCAR legacy. Although it was not Petty’s personal street car, its connection to the seven-time NASCAR champion adds historical appeal.
 
So they're saying send in your glovebox for signing, get the decals, embroider your seats and you too can have a " connected to Petty ,historical appeal " car.
 
The car is worth about 250K tops and whatever you think Petty's ownership is worth. Just my opinion.
 
What a fool for not taking that much. :rolleyes:

The Superbird was previously offered at Mecum Kissimmee in January, where bidding climbed to $550,000. That figure set a record high for a Superbird equipped with a non-Hemi 440 engine, yet the seller declined the offer.



Like I said above. :rolleyes:

Most recently, the car crossed the block on Bring a Trailer, where bidding reached $385,000 before again falling short of the undisclosed reserve. While lower than the January figure, the final bid still exceeded established market norms for this configuration.
