VIN # 1 Superbird coming together

[Pumpdoc]

This Superbird was incredibly solid. It is the first super bird made. Unfortunately, the mice really liked this car as much as I do. The cowl and the Plenum were completely rotted.

You better put some rinkles in the front sides of that upper cowl if you want to have it look original !!!

Too perfect would not be original....lol

So this is the 'Bird with VIN - RM23V0A149789 ?

Did the car come with a shift punch mark in the cowl?

Is there a fender tag with indication of when it was built?

His fender tag didn't even get gate or sequence numbers! It's unique in itself!

Fairly certain that every Bird fender tag was given B30.. hopefully pumpdoc will give us another shot of his!

Weren’t they built in a batch in November-December 69 at lynch road?

They were, but I'm fairly sure every one out the door got a B30 SPD...

 

[71Charger]

Is there a door sticker?

 

[71Charger]

I meet a guy that had his build date mid December but door sticker 11/69.

 

[71Charger]

Superbird batch possibly made this guys car late?

 

[dadsbee]

This is the FIRST production car built ! I'll let the owner take over from here.

ALL birds got a B30 SPD. Door stickers to match 11/69... Mine shipped up the road to Clairpointe for conversion December 11th if I remember correctly...

I should have said that this particular car was not a superbird. It was a roadrunner or gtx. Thought it was rather odd to have build date mid Dec and door sticker November. Maybe the superbird batch pushed his car to Dec.
