Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars
Filed under: Classics, Coupe, Auctions, Chrysler, Specialty, Racing
The Plymouth Superbird is one of those classic American cars from the muscle car era that has captured the imagination of all sorts of automotive enthusiasts long after its presence on roads and race tracks wore away. It's easy to see why. Where else but in the Swingin' Sixties and Seventies would a car leave the factory with an aerodynamics package that included a pointy beak and a rear spoiler that sat several feet above the rear deck?
The example you see above, which was born in 1970, is one of the finest Superbirds we've ever seen. Combine its complete restoration with its original 426 Hemi engine, and its no surprise that it managed to bring in a cool half million dollars (plus 10 percent in fees) at Barrett-Jackson. See it yourself in our high-res image gallery above, and scroll down below for the official auction description.Continue reading Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars
