Nowadays the Plymouth brand is as dead as roadkill but back in the 60s and 70s, owning a Plymouth was cool.
Living in the 21st century, where safety was everything, can you imagine that the GM brand took a gamble and built a car that was supposed to hit 200 miles per hour?
It’s called the Superbird and it was a highly modified version of the Road Runner. Under two thousand of these were built, weighting in at 3,841 lb (1,742 kg) and offering a distinct protruding, aerodynamic nosecone and that famous rear wing.
This cool example is up for grabs on eBay right now, and the owner promises it’s 100% original. With only 18,000 miles on the clock and two careful owners, it’s not hard to understand why bidding is currently at $75,000. The car has been sitting in dry storage for 12 years and is almost completely rust-free. What’s more, this is one of 466 models that had a 440 engine and a four-speed manual gearbox.
