Why are Superbirds worth so much?

my 2 centavos...... To start with they were a pretty bad *** vehicle that initially was banned at daytona for kicking so much ***!! Beyond that they represent an american symbol.....regardless of what anyone says or thinks about their weirdness....they do stand out! Kinda like a covered wagon but with muscle....wherever they show up, they draw an instant crowd.
Back in the day, their sales were less than sluggesh, I remember seeing rows of them at a large CP dealer in Detroit ( Raynal Bros CP ) I also remember a time, when the entire 2 block outside show lot at RB was filled with HEMI's and in the center was the SOX & MARTIN Barracuda..... initially sales were great for hemi's Then the GAS CRUNCH clobbered the muscle cars and you could not give them away!! They are an ICONIC Automobile, and because there were so few made ( comparitively speaking) they are RARE. They were also COP magnets back in the day....didnt matter the color or the sound the wing and the nose got you pulled over when you weren't doing squat....which made them just a tad unpopular in the Detroit area....where street racing was a little more than a weekend passtime.
Whatever avg car you were racing would be allowed to leave the scene and the Bird & Daytona were parked in front of the flashing blues.
SO to sum it up for the same reason as a 55 300-c , a 68 green 440 charger with a vinyl top and countless other rare Chrysler products are popular eye catching icons...the bird & daytona are just in that club just like the red white & blue AMC cars, they were a step outside the box in their day.
I just cant figure out WHERE people park/store em? the damn things have got to be 22 feet long LOLOLOL
