Vehicle Description
This is one of the most desirable muscle cars you can find. The
1970 Dodge Super Bee is rare, bold, and has one of the most unique
styles to come from Detroit's days of street domination. So you
know it's irresistible when you find a number-matching example that
has an awesomely restored style, right down to the
undercarriage.
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 grilles that truly looked a bit like
bumble bee wings. These separated grilles also seem to almost part
the seas to draw your attention (and the air flow) right to the
dual scoop hood. But what you're going to like best about this one
is the overall fit and finish. This hardtop was treated to a full
rotisserie-style restoration. The info says this was a two-year
$60k investment, and that there are only about 1,000 miles on it
since completion. That means they spent more time than the factory
did making sure the body panels look great and the doors close with
confidence. Mopars of this era had some ultra-desirable High Impact
color options, and arguably none were bolder than this Sub-Lime
green that nearly glows in the dark. It was only available in 1970
and the trim tag tells us this is the correct color. So they made
sure to lay it down with care during the restoration. This one also
has all the great details, such as the Super Bee white striping,
bright chrome bumpers, aggressive red rear panel surround, wide
dual exhaust tips, and the Super Bee mascot properly placed all
around the coupe.
More unique colors continue inside. After all, you often see these
interiors in black, but this one continues to give you the
factory-correct white. It's on the wide bench seats, front
headrests, side panels, and headliner of this fully restored
package. So it's great to roll down all the windows on this
pillar-less hardtop to show off how the stripes on the exterior and
the interior are part of a coordinated white package. They also
kept it practical with higher traffic areas like the steering
wheel, dash, and carpeting all done in black. There was a lot of
attention paid to getting the vintage details right with the
working dome light, smooth wood-like trim, and even the AM radio
with 8-track is still cranking out the tunes. In fact, the only
thing not stock on this time capsule interior seems to be the
special floor mats with bright green Super Bee embroidery.
You already know this generation of Super Bees only came with big
block power, so you must know that this coupe doesn't disappoint.
The 383 cubic-inch 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 there are even good details - right down to the Magnum
air grabber, decals, and classic-style battery topper. They paid
attention to history because this is the numbers-matching unit. And
as you can tell from the state of all the components, that
powerplant has had a lot of service and care. It makes for a strong
and solid driver. And that feeling is backed up by the right
features, like power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the
numbers-matching three-speed automatic transmission. Of course with
how clean the restored undercarriage is, you probably will be quite
picky about your joy rides.
The sale comes complete with the factory buildsheet, owner's
manual, and even the rare/correct Holley Mopar Holley carburetor.
This is the awesomely restored Super Bee that has the pedigree to
bring prestige to the muscle car world. So don't miss this Mopar.
