Now starring in the Maxmotive Pittsburgh showroom is this very
special 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee. It was built by the
Performance Team at Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge, and was
driven by Edward Norton in the 2002 Spike Lee film "25th Hour." But
this movie star Mopar stands on its own, even without the film
credits. The 440 engine has the coveted Six-Pack setup with an
Edelbrock aluminum intake. It also sports Hedman Elite Thermal
Coated Headers, a COMP Cams bumpstick, MSD ignition, a Pro Torque
starter, and finned aluminum valve covers from Mopar Performance.
It runs through a 4-speed transmission with a Hurst shifter with
Piston Grip to a 4.10 Dana rear axle. Even a hot rod has to run
flawlessly during filming, so studio cars are often worked on by
top professionals. Along with all the other top tier hardware, the
reliable March Performance one-inch serpentine belt drive is
evidence of this. The Top Banana paint and of course, the Bumble
Bee stripes give it a great Mopar muscle attitude. The Super Bee
upgrades were done at the legendary Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding
Dodge. A thorough restoration includes the paint, striping,
headliner, carpeting, vinyl roof, and polished stainless.
Mechanical work includes a transmission rebuild, rebuilt clutch,
COMP Cams timing chain and gear set, electric water pump, Holley
fuel pump, new fuel tank and lines, and rebuilt brakes. Powder
coated Rallye wheels with Goodyear Eagle GTII tires provide the
classic look with modern performance. "25th Hour" was the first
major motion picture to be filmed in New York City after 9/11, and
it was highly acclaimed by critics and fans. Yet this muscular 1970
Dodge Coronet Super Bee stands on its own as a Mr Norm built, 440
Six Pack, Hurst Pistol Grip 4-speed, Scat Pack icon. The dash was
signed by Spike Lee and Edward Norton; and highly collectible movie
memorabilia comes with the car including posters, the Touchstone
Pictures press kit, and the original script, which is signed by
Spike Lee. See it at Maxmotive Pittsburgh or at maxmotive.com. Lee
and Norton said it best. Under their signatures on the dash are the
words, "Thanks for the cool ride." ********** DISCLAIMER MAXmotive
