In 1970 Plymouth introduced the Superbird. It shared
many comparisons in design to the Dodge Daytona. The Superbird
was based on the Plymouth Road Runner except for the unique airfoil
and nose configuration. The rear spoiler on the Superbird was
higher and more angled than the Daytona's. The trademark over
size rear spoiler was mainly for styling but it did allow better
access to the trunk but at speeds under 90 mph, the wing was essentially
useless. Since production lasted only one year total build quantities
were 1920 cars. The rarest for these birds is the Hemi equipment
version as only 93 were built. 1,162 were equipped with the 440
and single four-barrel carburetor. 665 versions were built with
the 440 Six Pack. Some of the reasons for the low production figures
were the controversial oversized wing and angular nose. Also,
the cartoon characters and 'beep-beep' horn were 'love-or-hate'.
The Superbirds performance was undisputed and the top speed was
without equal.
