Superbird. The Plymouth script and the decal on the wing did it for me. Also the front nose looks more finished.
What Do You Like Better, The Superbird Or Daytona?

Superbird. I think the taller wing looks better. Would GLADLY take either, though. BTW, until quite recently there was a beater genuine 1970 ‘bird daily driver in Yellowknife, north of me. Haven’t seen it in a few years so I imagine it’s been snapped up, over restored, and packed away in a collection, never to be seen again. Shame, really.

Superbird because:
I have a 70 Roadrunner
I like the vinyl top to accent the stripe color and break up the body color.
BOTH are
awesome cars!

I'm sorry but I don't really like it. It's definitely different, I like the idea. I like the color
I replied to the person that sent this to me with the following. "It's a waste of a nose cone and a wing."

I can appreciate the effort going into this but...if you want a weird wagon then at least make it a two door.

Bird for me ! I was drawn to it at the age of 9 or 10 (1973). Like the wing being more raked back and not so upright as the Daytona and the Bird nose just looks better all around.
Btw..I just became a PROUD Bird owner myself. Dreams do come true if you believe!

Ya know, until I read through this thread, I didn't realize that the Superbird nose doesn't have that cheap looking mesh on it.
Being a 70 V-code Roadrunner owner, I guess I'm close to having a Superbird. That was my vote anyway, because I especially like the Lemon Twist and Black vinyl top w/black stripes and interior!

If I had the money, and I don't think I will in my lifetime but there's enough of an outside chance that I can dream about it...
I would do a Superbird clone, Lemon Twist and Black, with a Hellephant engine and a 5 or 6 speed manual transmission that could handle the power. The absolute best suspension system available and the same goes for brakes.
THAT my Mopar friends would truly be a SUPERCAR. I'm absolutely certain that the power output would exceed that of the Nascar Hemis, and with the suspension setup and the aerodynamics dialed in, along with the OD 5th and/or 6th gear, with enough geography it would be a top speed terror, AND still rip one hell of a 1/4 mile.
Yep, that would be a dream car for me.
Now don't get me wrong, I will be able to get "a taste" once I get the QA1 K-member and front suspension system I already own installed, the triangulated 4 link rear suspension I want to get asap, the 6 piston caliper on all 4 wheels Wilwood disc brakes system I have lined up, and the stroker motor I have planned. I already have the Passon a855 5 speed, and I love the way the 5 speed plays with the 4.10 ring and pinion gearset in my Dana 60...
But still, bigger dreams...
