Take a look at this find, ABANDONED Plymouth Superbird in the middle of the desert!
In a tale that sounds almost too unbelievable to be true, automotive enthusiasts stumbled upon a piece of automotive history in the most unexpected of places. The story begins with a friend named Baker, who recently acquired a remote property in the middle of the desert, complete with a mysterious barn that had never been explored. Little did he know, this barn held a hidden gem that would set the hearts of car enthusiasts racing.
The narrator, filled with anticipation, rushes to the scene with a trailer in tow, determined not to leave without the treasure he’s been promised. As they open the barn doors, the reveal is nothing short of astonishing – a Plymouth Superbird, an iconic winged warrior from the 1970s, sits in solitude, having been sheltered from the world for an untold number of years.
Baker recounts his discovery, explaining that he purchased the barn along with the property and had never ventured inside until now. The barn, it turns out, had a peculiar history – the previous owner had used marijuana as insulation, turning the space into an unintentional time capsule of a bygone era.
As the duo examines the Superbird, it becomes evident that this isn’t just any car; it’s a 1970 model, the narrator’s dream find. Although suspicions arise about its authenticity, the excitement is palpable as plans for a potential Mopar build take shape. The Superbird, born out of a NASCAR rivalry and boasting a distinctive aerodynamic wing, holds a unique place in automotive history.
The narrator, ever the car enthusiast, expresses gratitude for being the first to receive Baker’s call and vows to give the Superbird a new lease on life. The decision is made to transport the car to Huntington Beach Jeep for a comprehensive restoration, including the replacement of floors and quarters.
What adds an extra layer of intrigue to this discovery is the property’s previous owner, described as a survivalist with a Faraday cage and mysterious mining activities. The barn, once filled with contraband insulation, is now the birthplace of a resurrection project that promises to bring the Superbird back to its former glory.
As the trailer pulls away from the desert property, the Superbird, covered in layers of dust and mystery, embarks on a new journey. The question now lingers in the air, much like the desert dust settling on the car’s surface: What does the future hold for this classic piece of automotive history? The viewers are invited to join the journey as suggestions for the restoration pour in, ensuring that the Superbird’s revival becomes a collaborative celebration of the automotive community’s passion and love for classic cars.
