The Super Bee, a spin-off of the Dodge Coronet, was an aggressive
styling take on the normal muscle car format of its time. Announced
as part of the Scat Pack marketing program in 1968, the Dodge Super
Bee matched the Road Runner in almost every way when it came to
power and performance. The Super Bee was just a bit longer and
heavier than its Plymouth counterpart, but otherwise it featured
nearly identical squared-off styling, along with a range of
intriguing air intake hood designs that could be specified at
ordering time. In 1969 a 440 cu in engine was added and with it
came 390hp output. The orgy of horsepower lasted just a single
year, and although a neutered version of the Road Runner continued
for a handful of years, the Super Bee was at the end of the road.
In 1970 (it's final year) the Super Bee's styling took a dramatic
departure with the installation of its iconic 'bumble bee wing'
grille. The Super Bee now has achieved "cult status" and is very
desired by Mopar muscle car aficionados.This example comes with the
best of both worlds. Presently the car is tagged for street use.
That being said, you could take it to the track and have a blast!
