Richard Petty's '70 Plymouth Superbird

I'm slowly working on collecting the Hot Wheels '70 Plymouth Superbirds. I have a few so far, but there are two that I know are going to be tough (read: expensive) to acquire. The big one is the 2009 Connect Cars. Prices on that one seem to hover around $75. Ouch! The other big one is the 2011 Vintage Racing Richard Petty car. So, I can scratch the Vintage Racing car off the want list now since I got a pair of them in the mail.




Of course, the only reason to get two of them is so I can set one free...



This really is a beautiful piece and is easily a favorite in my collection. The attention to detail is great with the Petty Racing graphics, detailed window trim, door handles, hood & trunk pins and fuel filler. This car even gets a different interior from the standard Superbird releases and has a single racing seat and a roll cage. Then it's finished off with some Goodyear Real Riders and a metal base. This car is an absolute stunner and a great piece for any Hot Wheels collection.
