Guys, I just picked up a 1970 Super Bee. I'm officially Mopar crazy! I sold my 67' Camaro a few months ago and was looking for a 68-69 charger, although I couldn't resist when I went to look at this Bee.
Heres a little bit of info on it. It's a 1970 real Dodge Super Bee, originally a 383 4-speed car. The 383 motor was supposedly stolen out of the owner's front yard. It now has a 440 6-pack setup with 906 heads and a 10qt oilpan. The previous owner said it has 100 miles on it and puts out 650hp?? I'm not sure if that horsepower claim is legit???. I only drove it one block and had it trailered to my house. The A833 tranny has also been rebuilt as well as a new clutch. It has Cragar Soft 8 17inch wheels with some ridiculously wide rear tires and air shocks, which I want to replace with some Magnum 500's.
The car has a full interior from a Dodge Charger, So the interior is also not original. It's had the trunk pan and floors replaced. The frame is mint. The car is originally from Oaklahoma so it's body is great compared to the 68 RR that I restored.
The paint is driver quality and thats just how I want it because I will drive it alot. The exhaust is 3inch with glasspacks dumped in front of the rear axle. It's ridiculously loud I'm going to pick up a pipe kit from summit and throw some new mufflers in there. the car needs a few odds and ends, the ignition wires are finicky, and I have to get the 6-pack tuned right :laugh:. Somebody also butchered up the firewall trying to install an ac system.the hood is also bent up in the passenger side corner because somebody that didnt know what they're doing adjusted it wrong. So I've got a little bit of fixing to do. The original color is B5 blue, which is awesome! I'm going to try to return the car to looking more original.
The car has the matching fender tag and everything, btw how do I know if the car had the trail stripe originally?
Anyways heres the pics! If you guys have any tip/suggestions/comments let me know!
