1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee Tribute2 Door Hardtop
"You know how you've always had that mental picture of the
"perfect" car; the car equipped just the way you want it. With
looks that would turn heads at stoplights, that handled and
cornered in a way that made driving a joy. Then you went to buy
that car. But somehow the price got in the way and you wound up
with the small engine instead of that surging powerhouse of a 383 4
barrel V8 you always wanted. And regular roll up windows because
you couldn't afford power. Sure, you liked the new car, but it
wasn't' quite the car you had in mind. Well, compromise no longer!
Coronet for 1969 makes it possible for you to have that special
car." Excerpted from the 1969 sales brochure.
For consignment, a 1969 Dodge Coronet 500 Super Bee tribute 2 door
hardtop with a title verified 5,376 actual miles. This highly
optioned Coronet has been meticulously transformed into a Super
Bee. According to our consignor, even Mopar enthusiasts cannot tell
the difference "from engine to interior". The car retains its
number matching transmission.
Exterior
Despite the fender tag, the car now appears in striking two stage
Dark Green Metallic rather than single stage Medium Green. Which
special features to highlight first; there are so many good ones!
Let's start with the dual scoops perched on the pinned hood,
trimmed with stainless edges and adorned with 383 call outs. How
about the white vinyl top? It's in fantastic shape and picks up
nicely on the iconic white tail stripe, a wide band that wraps the
decklid like a birthday gift and exhibits the Super Bee logo on the
hips. Behind it, the light panel is perfectly vertical and houses
three part lights over a straight bumper over oval exhaust tips.
The 15-inch steel wheels are painted to match the car and
embellished by Fratzog stamped hub caps ringed in red, mirroring
the red stripes on the 225/70R15 tires, here with a mid 2017 date
code. At first glace, the car looks flawless. Closer inspection
reveals some inclusions, bubbling in numerous places, scratches,
chips, under spray, emblem holes, and evident filler.
Interior
Legendary Interior was called upon to replace the interior which
true to the times, is green and the handsome door panels are
accented with a band of trimmed woodgrain in line with a safety
reflector over the vinyl door card and both doors present nicely.
The green vinyl bucket seats as well as the rear bench are in great
shape too. A factory wood grain steering wheel has been added as
well as a Rally dash, repainted and restored to factory correct.
Retro Sound provides the AM/FM radio with Bluetooth along with an
accessory panel with USB, A/C, and AUX. The center console, dressed
in a woodgrain faceplate, looks fresh and from it emerges a chrome
shifter and polished indicator framing to match the console trim.
New green twist carpet is protected matching mats embroidered with
Super Bee and the helmeted bee. The newer headliner and matching
green shoulder belts are clean and the trunk is covered in a plaid
vinyl mat.
Drivetrain
Show ready in every way is the 383ci V8 under the hood topped with
an Edelbrock 800cfm 4-barrel carburetor hidden under the orange
filter housing. It's mated to the numbers matching A727 Torqueflite
3-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the 8 � inch
rear with 3.23 gears. A four core aluminum radiator is on board
along with power brakes, power steering and air conditioning.
Undercarriage
When the nut and bolts of suspension are clean, you know you've got
a good start to the underside! And it is clean, home to dual
exhaust that hits an H-pipe before a pair of stock style mufflers
on its way to a twin tip exit. Power disc brakes are supplied up
front and power drums in back, while suspension includes torsion
bars ahead and leaf springs behind.
Drive-Ability
We're super psyched to take this faithful Super Bee tribute around
the test loop, anticipating a good running car without issue. And
that's exactly what we find; a well sorted car that looks clean and
runs clean, plenty of power, straight tracking, and an all around
positive experience! All functional items work as they should.
While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were
working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these
functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
This car comes to you with some extra parts including some NOS, a
full list of parts for the build, and a documentation binder that
includes the factory build sheet. The Coronet that was lucky enough
to become a Super Bee was from Florida and photographs of the
original car are included.
