For Sale: 1970 Plymouth Superbird in Mesa, Arizona

In the history of the autoverse, few cars are as awe-inspiring as this numbers-matching 1970 Plymouth Superbird. A heavily modified homologation model of the already fast Road Runner, only 1,935 units were built in total. Of these, just 408 of them were created with a 440 Six-Pack and an automatic transmission, making this car a true treasure find. We're told by the current owner the Vitamin C paint is original, and even if it's not, this huge-winged racecar-for-the-street is sure to cure whatever ails you.

Inside, we find a clean and stock black vinyl interior. A wood-grain-trimmed center console separates a pair of high-back bucket seats, while a power-assisted, three-spoke steering wheel sits just ahead of a 150 mph speedometer and the always beloved tic-toc-tach. An AM radio, heat, and defrost round out the amenities in this purpose-built machine, and if those are enough, this probably isn't the car for you.

The real entertainment come from under that expansive hood. A numbers-matching 440 cubic-inch Super Commando overhead valve V-8 engine. Thanks to its six-pack, consisting of three Holley 2-barrel carburetors mounted on top of its stock intake manifold, this big block monster was capable of producing a very conservatively advertised 390 horsepower at 4,700 rpm and 490 pound-feet of torque at 3,200 rpm. That power is routed through an A727 Torqueflite three-speed automatic transmission before reaching its 8.75-inch rear end.
