True, but you can tell immediately because the rear glass is unique to the Superbird. Also, the welded-in support brackets for the rear wing were not removed from the trunk. I saw a battered-and-bruised 'runner in the mid-1980s tooling down the road. When it passed me, I spotted the Superbird glass and tried to chase the guy down to buy the car... but he lost me quick and easy. -- Last edit: 2017-03-14 02:18:20
