Superbirds from Mopar Show

[tbm3fan]

There were four Superbirds at the show on June 2nd. The Lime Green owned by a woman who is the original owner. Purchase about 8 miles from where I am.

The Lime Green 'bird. Oh, it is also a hemi. Owner in first picture.

Very nice seeing 4 of them at once!!!!!

Does this two spoke steering wheel (tilt telescopic ?) belong in there in the green one or was this customized for more "belly room" ? Never saw one like this in a Superbird.
For other than race historic reasons these wing cars do nothing for me, the mandatory vinyl top to keep roof conversion costs down doesn't help the look either and makes no sense for a car that's supposed to have superior aerodynamics IMHO; give me a standard 383 RR of the same vintage and I'd be happier.

optional steering wheel for B-BODIES IN 1970. It is different to the ones in the Cs. Not a tilt&teleskop but Rim-blow

I think they are kool cars but I much prefer the Daytonas.

I'll take one of each.

Too bad that green one wasn't a 4 speed.

I agree.
It looks much more sleeker than the Bird.
And it was the first one out there

Correct, thats the rimblow wheel you got if you wanted a rimblow wheel without the tilt.

Forgot about the rimblows. The design is out of place for this car though.
