Lou, This is the Holy Grail of Muscle Cars. A Superbird with its original owner is the rarest of birds.

Hi Right Lane Hog, High praise for the "Holy Grail of Muscle Cars" :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou

Well rarest might be my new vid, the 1of1 SuperBird built by the EPA to chase jets down the runway and killed the musclecars!

[@damo2142]

My father owned 3 of these over the years of my youth. A blue, a red and one in this green and all trophy winners in the super bird club. We traveled to a lot of events when I was younger all over the country. Sadly all 3 had 440 6 packs and not hemi. Boy do I wish we still had one of them the last one a green one I remember my dad selling in mid 80s for 10 or 15 grand boy is that sad to think about now. Still believe we have a lot of spare stickers, and parts though in storage. My father promised me the green one as my first car but sadly sold it before, but since we were Mopar fans I did end up with a mint 74 Charger SE so not all bad.

[@jeremythompson9122]

That is a smart lady right there. Nobody is laughing at her anymore with what these cars are worth today.Great foresight hanging onto this car. Gotta be one of the most valuable Mopar's in existence

Hi Mark C, High praise for Janice & her car :-) Lou

[@reallivehumandrummer4438]

She looks like she was barely 16 in 1970. I'm trying to imagine how she talked her dad into it. "Yea dad its got a nice tall wing, so easy to see, much less likely to be hit by a distracted driver."

[@loucostabile]

Maybe her Dad is Richard Petty :-)

[@carloscarpinteyro332]

She convinced her dad to buy it for her by saying, "Dad, I have to outrun all of those Wile E. Coyote men."

[@truebetold65]

Lady you are just too cool..wow. I saw one up close at a 7-11 while going to buy a comic book in Virginia..I looked around and touched the rear wing real quick.. never have I forgotten that moment..it was around circa 1975 and I'm 54 now.

[@loucostabile]

"Lady you are just too cool..wow." the Truth Be Told :-)

[@TheGunfighter45acp]

Amazing, Lou! Janice is right; the black vinyl roof really stands out, which definitely has some competition from the wonderful paint, the wing, and of course, the Hemi! It's no wonder she kept it and drove it since day one. Good for her!

[@christopherst.pierre3569]

So true Mike!! They are ceramic and crack easily. My 71 Demon was like that.

[@mikehileman9476]

My dad bought a new 77 Macho Edition Ramcharger. The resistors always went out in the middle of nowhere. He kept a couple in the glovebox. Sure enouugh , we got home! My uncle bought a new 70 Lemon Twist 383 pistol grip Roadrunner . i was 5 years old and thought it was the coolest thing known to man . Got in trouble constantly for drawing pictures of it instead of paying attention in class. I wept when he totalled it in a traffic accident . Yes , I grew up Mopar. My first car was a 74 Charger SE. Had the N50 I5s on Cragars with G78 15s on front .Gramps had a 73 Chrysler Newport with 440 . It was a serious land yacht. Ah the days of my youth....

[@rileycpo]

I do with mine. 70 383 Road Runner. Have the bill of sale and mine has over 110k original miles. Florida car it's whole life. AND, NAVY owners the hole time. I even have the ledger from the second owner where he documented every time he did anything to the car, including miles when the maintenance was done. GO NAVY!

[@Blackscorpion1963]

Have just viewed this awesome excellent video of Janice Sutherland's phenomenal 1970 Plymouth Superbird Hemi. What a unique story to this amazing mopar muscle car. A one-owner Superbird is rare enough, however add on the car's own features and it all adds up to one heck of a fascinating piece of American Mopar Muscle Car history. Janice I so love your car and your story. You are one seriously FAST woman on a mission. Best wishes to you.

In '70 my neighbor bought a new one. It was white and had a 440. You could hear that car rumbling all the way up and down the street when he came and went. He'd do a burnout once in awhile when he saw us kids watching. I was 13 and never thought any car could have been any cooler than that one. My parents forbade me from riding in it. :( Great times. :)

My dream car and probably most beautiful car in the world to me! Plymouth RoadRunner Hemi in Limelight Green. My uncle had one also a 70’ (yellow)and remember him taking me to school in late 70’s early 80’s and I was definitely the coolest kid there when they saw it.#Plymouth#RoadRunner❤️#BeepBeep

[@rudyprankl5676]

@@loucostabile I remember when these cars were sitting on local dealer lots unsold when new and they were removing the wings to boost sales on leftovers...Crazy.

[@plymouthduster2252]

Wow amazing car Lou. I definitely got to make to those shows one of these days. I noticed that the Superbird didnt have power windows, I guess maybe that option wasn't available on the Superbirds or the Hemi cars. I love seeing the one owner cars.

Hi PlymouthDuster 225, Happy to read "Wow amazing car " :-) Thank you for viewing & sharing, Lou

[@jeremythompson9122]

Roadrunners/Superbirds were typically stripped down muscle cars. You're much more likely to find power windows in a more upscale GTX

[@Spunky-iq8jm]

The ballast resistor. I have had to replace them over the years. An affordable part to purchase, but a pain when it won't start. We used to keep a spare in the glove compartment.
