1970 Dodge Super Bee

Description

This is one of the most desirable muscle cars you can find. The 1970 Dodge Super Bee is rare, fast, and has one of the most unique styles to come from Detroit's days of street domination.

The styling for 1970 was pretty unique for this one model year. The super-hot Super Bee packaged muscle cars had a seriously mean appearance with the wide dual grille, that truly looked a bit like bumble bee wings. These separated grilles were the perfect complement to the optional hood with dual Ramcharger scoops. Straight bodywork is especially critical on the fuselage styled cars, and you can see from the unbroken curves on this one's flanks that the bodywork was done well. These Mopars had a long list of fun and funky paint options, but arguably none were better than this Sub-Lime green that nearly glows in the dark. It looks great today thanks to a restoration with only a couple hundred miles on it. This one has all the great details, such as the Super Bee black striping, rear spoiler, aggressive red rear panel surround, and the Super Bee mascot properly placed all around the coupe.

Black is beautiful, and that's what this interior offers. The driver and passenger get high back vinyl bucket seats that are a nice reminder that the Dodge Coronet that the Super Bee was based on was an all-day cruiser. The rest of the interior is fresh and clean, which makes it all feel like a 1970s time capsule. In fact, there is one original piece that makes these manual transmission Super Bees especially desirable. The pistol-grip shifter is an icon today, and the first thing everyone checks for when they see Mopar muscle arrive at any car show. Of course, the practical side of this is that you have the best control for getting the most power out of your muscle car. Also just to make sure you have all the right info about what's going on under the hood, a new set of Auto Meter water temperature and oil pressure gauges are mounted under the dash.

You've already seen those racing hood pins on the front of this car, and you already know Super Bees only came with serious power, so you must know that this coupe doesn't disappoint. The 383 cubic-inch big block V8 does a good job of filling every inch of the very tidy engine bay. It is painted in the correct shade of Hemi Orange, and as you can tell from the state of all the components, the powerplant has had a lot of service and care. While the pistol-grip shifter looks great in the interior, its functional side is as part of the four-speed manual transmission. The optional extra gear is not only nice to spread out the powerband, but it also give this coupe extra legs as a long-distance cruiser. The latter is helped even further by the power steering. But no matter where you go, the new dual exhaust will announce your speedy arrival with a great tune.

Mopars are already some of the rarest muscle cars on the scene, and this coupe is one of the scarcest Dodges around. The paint says, "Look at me!" but the low production numbers and throaty exhaust screams, "You will remember me!" Call now!!
