Not even close... Stick with the AAR Cuda or Challenger copies only...

Yeah, I gotta say that doesn't do much for me. Seems a little garish... but that's probably just me.

Never forget that first place goes to the racer with the MOST laps, not the racer with the FASTEST lap

Hard to feel the novelty of it when the Superbird was never based off the Challenger or the Cuda. A little too Night Rider feeling for me, but I respect the ingenuity. The flip side is they are putting out some great HP numbers by the looks of the video.

That's EXACTLY what I thought.
I expected the snout to start talking. lol
Far from the worse custom concept I've seen.
Real far from the best.

But, hey, look at the positive side. It drew enough attention to get stolen... and disassembled for parts.

The Challenger body wears a custom Superbird kit.
That's SuperFuginSuperugly 
We had a kid one town over BITD that put the original bird wing on this 70 Cuda in 1972... looked like bird poop on a short car.

Gotta have one. I'd be the envy of every redneck this side of the Mississippi. Some of those great big, chrome plated, spinning wheels would really set it off.

I don't always go the extra mile, but when I do it's because I missed my exit.
All my life I've strived to keep from becoming a millionaire, so far I've succeeded.
There are three kinds of people in the world, those that are good at math and those that aren't.
No matter how big of a hammer you use, you can't pound common sense into stupid people, believe me, I've tried.
