There were no Plymouth Road Runner Superbird Petty blue Superbirds produced with a Hemi engine. That means the only form of a multi-carbureted 999 paint code Plymouth Road Runner Superbird that was available would be the extremely rare, highly desirable 440 6 Pack. This being a multi carbureted combined with the ever desirable 4 speed manual transmission combination makes the undoubtedly the BEST 999 Paint code (Petty Blue) Plymouth Road Runner Superbird that money could buy. This car is an excellent example of an UN-RESTORED WITH ONLY 1 REPAINT, ORIGINAL TOP, ORIGINAL INTERIOR, LOW MILEAGE, KEPT IN THE GARAGE, PAMPERED ITS WHOLE LIFE, WINGED PHENOMENON!!!
These cars dominated the Super Speedways in 1970. The "King" Richard Petty drove his Plymouth Road Runner Superbird winged warrior to many Super Speedway Victories. Superbirds have quickly become the most sought after Muscle Cars of all time. They are a true example of the sheer innovation and cutting edge design produced by Chrysler engineers in 1970. They were on the forefront of aerodynamics, high speed stability, and high performance, as well as quality and style.
This Midwestern Winged Warrior was originally purchased new at Comforts Downtown Chrysler Plymouth in Council Bluffs, Iowa where it received a warranty replacement short block (Not a date coded, but an actual non-vin warranty replacement) by the 3rd owner due to the fact it smoked when started cold. This is a 4 owner Superbird, with all owners names & phone numbers. The original transmission and rear end are intact and show no signs of wear with less then 39,000 original miles.
This rare V-Code 4 speed,
Petty Blue Plymouth Road Runner
Superbird
was also at the 50th Anniversary of the
Daytona 500
and started the race along with
Richard Petty being the Grand
Marshall. This was the first time since these winged phenomenon dominated
Daytona back in 1970 that a winged car started an event at Daytona!!
2008, also being the first year that the rear wing was re-introduced to
NASCAR, bringing back the aerodynamics that the Plymouth Road Runner
Superbird
started.
