Homologation rules have resulted in some of the most desirable and striking road-going cars ever made, and NASCAR is not different–take, for example, this Plymouth Superbird.

Of the only 1935 examples built during the single year it was offered, what makes this Superbird more desirable than most? This one was owned by none other than NASCAR legend Richard Petty.

Owned by Petty from 1982-2013, the Superbird features the famed racer’s signature on both the dash and the trunk–the latter preserved under the clear coat.

Find this 1970 Plymouth Superbird up for auction from Mecum on January 18.
