Equipment

Restored to showroom condition with better paint, chrome and stainless. Left headlight needs to be adjusted but other than that the nose, door, deck fits and panels are exceptional.

Market commentary

This is a wonderful Superbird, but its also a wonderful price, nearly Hemi money for a 4 barrel 440 Super Commando. It is unlikely that this telegraphs a shift in the Superbird Daytona market, more likely the result of a unique set of circumstances such as happens at auctions from time to time (and which all sellers dream of happening to their car.)
