Casino Heist Superbird
1970 Superbird 426 Hemi. The car comes with build sheet and the original sticker. This car was used in the notorious, actual robbery as the get-away car from the Harrah's Casino in 1970. Complete ownership history including FBI information about the robbery comes with the car. 28,605 miles, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and bucket seats.
 
I wonder if it was Harrah's in Tahoe, or here in Reno? Hmmm.....*thinks about research, gets distracted at refrigerator*:shifty:
 
it was the Harrah's in Reno.... i did a google search but it costs to look at the newspaper articles about it....
