A couple years after my Mom and Dad split up, my Dad started seeing a lady whose next door neighbor bought one not long after they were intro'd. If Dad had my sister and I for the weekend, we usually had Sunday dinner at her house and a lot of times the car would be parked literally in front of her door. I could sit and look at that car for what seemed like hours as I LOVED the high wing and the pointed nose. I don't know what was in the car............probably a 440. I do know it was a 4 speed car as I distinctly remember that pistol grip shifter. This one was white with the black vinyl roof and those Road Runner decals with it holding the helmet to my eyes are just CLASSIC auto art! Interesting enough, in the later '70's when I was about to get out of school, I happen to pick up a Road and Track mag and in the back of the magazine in the classified ad, I happen to see the car for sale. I was in high school in the Ft. Washington MD area at the time, and it was listed in the Harrisburg PA area and the person selling it.........his name sounded awfully familiar. I figured it HAD to be the same car as there were VERY few in the area back then and the car was described as white with the black vinyl roof. Asking price?? IIRC, he was selling it for $1800! If only I had a time machine! Love little stories like this ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spencer1984 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Beautiful work on both, those are some great looking cars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotto Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Got the mag just the other day and loved the article on these two beauties. Absolutely love what you did with the Superbird rims as I also thought the Fireball outer rim was lacking a bit of detail. The Daytona just looks impressive, very clean and accurate build. Does Replicas and Miniatures still sell those redline tires? They really do look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills72sj Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Awesome looking builds. Quality workmanship. When I was in grade school, my neighbor up the street had an orange Superbird. They only had it about a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
