I offered the guy $35000 in 1998 and he would not entertain it at all. Been back several times since. He bought the car new and was a painter. I was told by coworkers he would drive the car around Washington NJ with his ladder tied to the roof and wing. There was also a crashed 1968 black 4 spd 426 Hemi charger in the garage .

The Super bird is a 440+6 4 spd Bucket seat council car. Still sports the original tires and wheels.

Down the road In Belvedere NJ. is 2 mercs. Mark Donohue and Dan Gurney Cyclones and a white Charger Daytona sitting in a barnyard with goats on the roofs . And a Taladega Torino sitting in the guys driveway. These are also all 4 spd cars.

33 Buttermilk bridge road, Washington NJ. You can see the Superbird on Google Maps. I was told buy a neighbor who comes to our shop that the owner has recently passed and the family will not sell anything the property is going up for auction. $550,000 was the high bid so far. Several acres of woods that are littered with Mopars at the back of the property that can be see from the RR tracks. I never walked the tracks but know guys that drive through on ATV's. he owns both sides of the road. 68-70 B-body heaven is what I was told. I personally laid close up eyes on the Superbird and the Charger. Charger looked drivable . Side swiped buried in the garage.

I combed through street view, can't seem to see it.

If you go to the overhead map view and zoom in it is behind the house in front of the bush . It is faded and half covered by the bush. The wing looks white and you can see the headlamp cover

I did see that, I was hoping to see it peek out while looking on street view. Cool though, thanks!

Wow did that happen to you? That was a bad wreck!

That did happen to me. I think 1980 or so. I drove that beautiful 1968 Barracuda to its demise. Shame on me. I should have stayed home. No one else was involved or hurt. I was barely hurt myself believe it or not.

My Roached Runner was a left for the dead parts car. I saved it from going to the scrap yard. Best part it was given to me for free. Now a super sleeper with built 383, 2 stage 125/250 NOS plate, headers, 3" exhaust, built trans, shift kit with a 4000 10" stall, 4:88 gear with spool and 35 spline axles, widened steelies with 275 drag radials.
