"Built for The King"

Few American muscle cars command the same level of admiration as the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird. Built to dominate NASCAR and now recognized as one of the most iconic homologation specials ever produced, the Superbird’s unmistakable aerodynamic styling, towering rear wing, and signature nose cone have made it a true legend among collectors. Finished in eye-catching Lemon Twist over a black interior, this beautifully restored example represents an outstanding opportunity to own one of Mopar’s most celebrated creations.

Powered by its legendary 440 cubic-inch 4-barrel V8 paired with the dependable 727 Torqueflite automatic transmission, this rear-wheel-drive Superbird delivers the authentic driving experience enthusiasts expect from one of the era’s most revered muscle cars. The drivetrain has been carefully maintained, the engine was completely resealed using new gaskets and freeze plugs and serviced wherever necessary to ensure reliable performance.

This Superbird is exceptionally well equipped with desirable factory options, including the special-order vinyl roof, 26-inch radiator, 3.55:1 Sure Grip rear axle, 15-inch Rally wheels wrapped in Goodyear Eagle NASCAR tires, high-back vinyl bucket seats, center console with console-mounted shifter, power steering, power brakes, AM radio, heat and defrost, dual exhaust, and the unmistakable Road Runner ”meep meep” horn. Of course, no Superbird would be complete without its defining aerodynamic features, including the signature nose cone, flip-up headlamps, and towering rear spoiler that made this model an instant icon.

The current owner acquired the car in 2014 and invested in a thoughtful, targeted restoration. It received fresh paint, new seat upholstery, a new headliner, and numerous additional cosmetic refurbishments, all while preserving its authentic character. The result is a striking example that presents beautifully and reflects the care and attention it received throughout its restoration. The car comes with its original fender tag, and the engine casting numbers, dates, and VIN stamping on the block are present, as shown in the photos. Other relevant markings and stampings are present, including the VIN number on the radiator core support. Owner history and some restoration sheets are also included with the sale.

With production believed to total just 1,935 examples for the U. S. market, along with only a handful built for export, the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird remains one of the rarest and most collectible American muscle cars ever produced. Whether destined for a premier collection, weekend cruise, or prestigious car show, this Lemon Twist Superbird stands as a remarkable example of Mopar engineering and NASCAR history.
