1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird: This Poor Car Has Been Through Hell But Never Came Back.
This might be the cheapest original Superbird you’ll ever find, but there’s just one little catch: it’s been involved in a terrible fire.
classic Mopars have become highly sought after collectibles in the car-collector world. It’s not hard to see why, considering their robust performance and eye-popping aesthetics.
One such member of the muscle car royalty is the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird.
Amusingly, the listing also says the color of the car is “BURN,” which is equally accurate. This poor car has been through hell but never came back.
It’s burned to a crisp from bumper to bumper and it looks like something fell on it or it’s been oddly rolled over because the roof of the car is totally caved in. Maybe it fell off a bridge?
This thing doesn’t look any prettier on the inside or under the hood. The engine appears to be a 440 Super Commando V8 “six-pack” linked to a four-speed manual transmission.
If that’s right and if this is the original engine, this is one of just 308 1970 Superbirds built with this configuration.
