1970 Plymouth Superbird: Muscle Cars In Detail No. 11 (Muscle Cars in Detail, 11)

This book is a well written text with the right blend of diagrams and pictures. Appendix 1 should be a chapter in itself--it should be used by any buyer or auctioneer to perform due diligence on a transaction! This is the book to take with you when you check out this car.

Let me admit right up front that I have loved Superbirds since they came out (I saw my first ones at Riverside Raceway in January of 1970) and they were my dream car from that point on. This book is very interesting and I recommend it to anyone who is wants to learn more about the history of these cars or anyone who is already hooked on them, like me.

This is a beautiful book. Informative, and very nice pictures. A must for any Superbird fan

Excellent subject matter book. A must for the Mopar aficionado.

very good overview of the superbird car

Everything you wanted to know about these cars, and then some

I love this book and you will too if you love the 1969 Daytona and/or 1970 Superbird. These books give you options and top of the world by the numbers

This is a very well written data and photo aggregation of the 1970 Plymouth Superbird. The book measures about 8x9 inches and contains less than 100 pages with color photography throughout and an easy-to-read sanserif typeface. It's the first of this series "Muscle Cars in Detail" that I've seen, read or reviewed (but I have seen similar). I think Geoff Stunkard does an admirable job aggregating data to put together a complete view of this model and year. As a young kid in the 60's I had a neighbor that owned this model car - it was in a rather ubiquitous nearly florescent Plymouth green - he would goose the gas a bit as he came up the street since there was a nice straightaway and several other Muscle Cars on my street (we owned a '69 Chevy Nova SS but it paled in comparison to the Superbird) - he was just letting people know that he was around - it was a bit of a challenge as I recall and several comments were elicited by the behavior.I liked this book quite a bit - I think it's well written and organized but now we come to my major complaint - first the size. I think for something like this a larger book would have featured the photography and made it into more of a coffee-table presentation. I kind of get where the publisher is going with this, but it seemed a bit like a section from a larger book presented as a single volume - sort of like buying chapters at a time. I really feel like the history and car is deserving or more - that's my only pet peeve. I would like to see this as a 14x14 inch (minimum) book in hardcover with about three times the pages. Now I'm not sure if there's enough content to fill said volume - especially if the idea is to keep some millennial's mind occupied for any length of time so that may be how this book came to be in it's current form - but I would argue that the group of car-culture enthusiasts interested in this car, this book, these photos and especially this content, would want more - but perhaps it's just wishful thinking on my part.Note that I received this book as part of a free giveaway as part of the LibraryThing Early Reviewers group.(also posted to LibraryThing)
