The 'Bird paid her dues as a daily driver for 135,000 miles. She now enjoys the life of a pampered cruiser and show car. Joe has covered about 2,000 miles a year since the 'Bird emerged from the Kohr's shop in early May 2004. He tells us the car is a great cruiser and is educating many to what a Superbird is.
On June 18, 2005, Joe took the 'Bird back to Lansdale for the annual "Under The Lights" car show. He wanted to see if anyone might recognize it from her days on the streets of Lansdale. There were a few people who did, and they told Joe several interesting stories of her history. Harry's 'Bird was back and better than ever.
