Starts up everytime and runs like it has something to prove... Check out underhood and take notice of exhaust manifolds and not hot rodded headers or aftermarket add ons. Still true to it's originality this ride gets lots of attention everywhere it goes! Love the looks of the steelies with the dog dish caps as well as the subtle plain look with the eye goggles front end. Car is Extremely Solid with having had only one repaint. Undercarriage still has factory/dealer undercoating and remains solid and untouched. This BEE has a very nice underside as a testament to how solid this car really is. Exterior Paint was done a long time ago in typical enamel and holds lots of shine, more noticeable blems are some bubbling on bottom of driver's door and top of cowl otherwise some minor chips and cracking here and there. Engine bay was blacked out. Trunk also seems solid however built up with trunk paint and remains of factory seam caulk. Interior is in average condition for the year and appears to be mostly original. Full intrumentation as expected on these with all the correct gauges and Tic-Toc Tach/Clock is not working. We may be acting too picky. We love Mopars and this BEE is no exception! The 1970 Coronet Super Bee featured a radical new nose design, an enticing new LOWER base price of $3074, and automatic membership in Dodge's Scat Pack of performance streetcars that included the Dodge Challenger and Charger. Also new for 1970, was the high impact paint colors such as Plum Crazy and Panther Pink. The Panther Pink ended up being the rarest color chosen for Super Bees with only 39 models ordered. Plum Crazy purple ended up being the most common 1970 Super Bee color, with 1926 cars painted the distinctive shade. Even with these consumer choices, overall sales for 1970 Super Bees fell from the previous year. Definitely, a subject of debate since its debut has been the distinctive hood and nose design of the 1970 Coronet. Many felt it was just 'too much' for the historically utilitarian design that the Coronet platform had come to symbolize. Dodge was in a "new decade-time to clean house" mood and everything was getting a facelift. New and radical was the motto, and the design teams came up with cars called Swingers and Demons. The 'crazy new look' of the '70 Coronet fit right in with Dodge's vision, just not the public's, as overall sales fell by a third. 1971 saw a resurrection of the Super Bee name under a Dodge Charger badge. Some of the Six-Pack and Hemi 1971 Charger Super Bees were thunderous tire scorchers, but the glory days of street-ready showroom speed were fast declining. The 1970 Super Bee was available as a pillared coupe or hardtop two-door. There was no 1970 Super Bee convertible made, but 296 Coronet R/T convertibles were built. There were 11,540 hardtop and 3,966 coupe Super Bees produced in 1970, with approximately 1,369 known to be exported out of the USA. All Super Bees and Coronet R/Ts were built at Lynch Road, MI, St. Louis, MO, and Los Angeles, CA. The Super Bee had 3 engine options, the base 383 Magnum, the 440 Six-Pack, or the 426 Hemi. The 1970 Coronet R/T was offered in a base 440 Magnum, a 440 Six-Pack, or 426 Hemi. Other interesting facts are that 1970 Super Bee has some of the lowest Hemi production numbers, with only about 42 examples know. The Coronet R/T Hemi numbers are even lower, with about 17 cars built. Today muscle car enthusiasts appreciate Mopar's constant need to reinvent itself in order to stay competitive, and collectors are scrambling to preserve the remaining examples of these unique low production vehicles. The one-year design and out-of-the-box high performance of the 1970 Super Bee ensures its place in history as a classic Mopar Collector's ItemEngine SpecificationsTypeSizeCarbHorse PowerTourqe383 Magnum383ci1x4bbl335 hp @ 5200 rpm425 lb-ft @ 3400 rpm A tid bit from wikipedia for your reading pleasure The original Dodge Super Bee was based on the design of the Dodge Coronet, designed as a two-door coupe, and was produced from 1968 until 1970. It was the company's low-priced powerful muscle car, derived from the design of the Plymouth Road Runner, and retailed at USD$3,027 on the consumer market. The origin of the name, "Super Bee", has its basis in the "B" Body designation pertinent to Chrysler's mid-sized cars, including the Road Runner and Charger. Plymouth's Road Runner sold well enough to prompt Dodge Division General Manager, Robert McCurry, to request the creation of a competitor from the Dodge Styling office; at the time, both divisions were competing to be the Chrysler performance division (later known as "Street and Racing Technology – SRT"). The designers were assigned the task of creating a name and identity for the Dodge version, with senior designer, Harvey J. Winn, winning the "contest" with the name "Super Bee" and a new logo design based on the Dodge "Scat Pack" Bee medallion.The design of the first Super Bee was influenced by the 1968 Coronet convertible and the show car's interior was built by the Alexander Brothers. The show car was eventually introduced at the 1968 Detroit Auto Show. Although the two cars are very similar in external appearance, the Super Bee was slightly heavier (approx 65 lb (29 kg)) and rode on a 117-inch (3,000 mm) wheelbase compared to the Road Runner's 116 in (290 cm) wheelbase. In addition to the minor external aesthetic differences, such as larger rear wheel openings, the bumblebee tailstripe and fancier grille, and the taillight ornamentation, the Super Bee also used actual diecast chrome-plated "Bee" medallions. These three-dimensional medallions were prominently mounted in a raised position in the grille/hood area and the trunklid/taillight area of the car throughout the first three years of production. The interior of the Super Bee borrowed the race car–inspired and more sophisticated gauge and speedometer dash cluster from the Dodge Charger, while the four-speed manual cars received a Hurst Competition-Plus shifter with Hurst linkage; this shifter compared to the Road Runner's less expensive Inland shifter and linkage. Due to the higher-quality accessories attached to the Super Bee, the car was sold at a higher price in comparison to its Plymouth cousin; this ultimately affected the model's sales numbers during the years it was produced. The Super Bee, like nearly all Chrysler muscle cars of that era, was available with the Hemi engine; although, this option raised the price by 33%, and only 125 were sold. The 1968 model was only sold as a two-door coupe, with two engine options, the base 335 hp (250 kW) 383 Magnum, and the 426 Hemi, rated at 425 hp (317 kW). The Super Bee included a heavy-duty suspension, an optional Mopar A-833 four-speed manual transmission, and high-performance tires. Outside, a stripe (with the bee logo) was wrapped around the tail. A hardtop version joined the existing pillared coupe body in 1969 and a new optional twin-scooped air induction hood, the "Ramcharger", became available. This particular option was coded N-96 and was the counterpart to the Plymouth Road Runner's "Coyote Duster" air induction hood. The "Ramcharger" hood featured forward-facing scoops that were more efficient than the Road Runner's "twin vents", as the latter merely lay flat on the hood and did not force air into the carburetor(s) as the Super Bee's did. A "six-pack" (three two-barrel carburetors) version of Dodge's 440 cubic-inch engine was added to the offering list mid-year. This option fell half-way between the standard engine and the Hemi as a USD463 option. The 1969 model year gave Chrysler customers several engines from which to choose—the base 383 hp (high performance), 440 Six Pack, and the 426 Hemi. The 440 Magnum (4bbl) was not an available option, and was reserved for the Coronet R/T. For the 1970 model, the Super Bee received a cosmetic redesign and a new front-end was designed that consisted of a twin-looped front bumper that Dodge Public Relations referred to as "bumble bee wings". However, sales plummeted for the year from 15,506 in 1970 to 5,054 in 1971—because of, or in spite of, this new look, with another sales pressure coming from higher insurance rates for performance cars; the similar Plymouth Road Runner and Plymouth Duster both experienced similar sales issues. In addition to the new looks, engine choices and "ramcharger" hood carried over from 1969, the 1970 cars from Dodge featured several new or improved options. For example, a "C- stripe" variant of the bumble stripe was offered, in addition to new high-back bucket seats, a steering column-mounted ignition and a "pistol-grip" Hurst shifter on four-speed models. Rumors have surfaced regarding the many concept and show vehicles that Chrysler produced during the muscle car era, including the production of four concept Super Bee convertibles. The whereabouts of these four cars are unknown, but, in the following year, the company reintroduced a limited run of approximately 5,000 of the concept vehicles before permanent discontinuation.

Here's the skinny on the BEE

Definitely a Super Bee that sounds great! Starts up everytime and runs like it has something to prove... Check out underhood and take notice of exhaust manifolds and not hot rodded headers or aftermarket add ons. Still true to it's originality this ride gets lots of attention everywhere it goes!

Love the looks of the steelies with the dog dish caps as well as the subtle plain look with the eye goggles front end.

Car is Extremely Solid with having had only one repaint. Undercarriage still has factory/dealer undercoating and remains solid and untouched. This BEE has a very nice underside as a testament to how solid this car really is. Exterior Paint was done a long time ago in typical enamel and holds lots of shine, more noticeable blems are some bubbling on bottom of driver's door and top of cowl otherwise some minor chips and cracking here and there. Engine bay was blacked out. Trunk also seems solid however built up with trunk paint and remains of factory seam caulk. Interior is in average condition for the year and appears to be mostly original. Full intrumentation as expected on these with all the correct gauges and Tic-Toc Tach/Clock is not working. We may be acting too picky. We love Mopars and this BEE is no exception!

The 1970 Coronet Super Bee featured a radical new nose design, an enticing new LOWER base price of $3074, and automatic membership in Dodge's Scat Pack of performance streetcars that included the Dodge Challenger and Charger. Also new for 1970, was the high impact paint colors such as Plum Crazy and Panther Pink. The Panther Pink ended up being the rarest color chosen for Super Bees with only 39 models ordered. Plum Crazy purple ended up being the most common 1970 Super Bee color, with 1926 cars painted the distinctive shade. Even with these consumer choices, overall sales for 1970 Super Bees fell from the previous year.

Definitely, a subject of debate since its debut has been the distinctive hood and nose design of the 1970 Coronet. Many felt it was just 'too much' for the historically utilitarian design that the Coronet platform had come to symbolize.

Dodge was in a "new decade-time to clean house" mood and everything was getting a facelift. New and radical was the motto, and the design teams came up with cars called Swingers and Demons. The 'crazy new look' of the '70 Coronet fit right in with Dodge's vision, just not the public's, as overall sales fell by a third. 1971 saw a resurrection of the Super Bee name under a Dodge Charger badge. Some of the Six-Pack and Hemi 1971 Charger Super Bees were thunderous tire scorchers, but the glory days of street-ready showroom speed were fast declining.

The 1970 Super Bee was available as a pillared coupe or hardtop two-door. There was no 1970 Super Bee convertible made, but 296 Coronet R/T convertibles were built. There were 11,540 hardtop and 3,966 coupe Super Bees produced in 1970, with approximately 1,369 known to be exported out of the USA.
All Super Bees and Coronet R/Ts were built at Lynch Road, MI, St. Louis, MO, and Los Angeles, CA.

The Super Bee had 3 engine options, the base 383 Magnum, the 440 Six-Pack, or the 426 Hemi. The 1970 Coronet R/T was offered in a base 440 Magnum, a 440 Six-Pack, or 426 Hemi. Other interesting facts are that 1970 Super Bee has some of the lowest Hemi production numbers, with only about 42 examples know. The Coronet R/T Hemi numbers are even lower, with about 17 cars built.

Today muscle car enthusiasts appreciate Mopar's constant need to reinvent itself in order to stay competitive, and collectors are scrambling to preserve the remaining examples of these unique low production vehicles. The one-year design and out-of-the-box high performance of the 1970 Super Bee ensures its place in history as a classic Mopar Collector's Item

A tid bit from wikipedia for your reading pleasure

The original Dodge Super Bee was based on the design of the Dodge Coronet, designed as a two-door coupe, and was produced from 1968 until 1970. It was the company's low-priced powerful muscle car, derived from the design of the Plymouth Road Runner, and retailed at USD$3,027 on the consumer market. The origin of the name, "Super Bee", has its basis in the "B" Body designation pertinent to Chrysler's mid-sized cars, including the Road Runner and Charger.

Plymouth's Road Runner sold well enough to prompt Dodge Division General Manager, Robert McCurry, to request the creation of a competitor from the Dodge Styling office; at the time, both divisions were competing to be the Chrysler performance division (later known as "Street and Racing Technology – SRT"). The designers were assigned the task of creating a name and identity for the Dodge version, with senior designer, Harvey J. Winn, winning the "contest" with the name "Super Bee" and a new logo design based on the Dodge "Scat Pack" Bee medallion.The design of the first Super Bee was influenced by the 1968 Coronet convertible and the show car's interior was built by the Alexander Brothers. The show car was eventually introduced at the 1968 Detroit Auto Show.

Although the two cars are very similar in external appearance, the Super Bee was slightly heavier (approx 65 lb (29 kg)) and rode on a 117-inch (3,000 mm) wheelbase compared to the Road Runner's 116 in (290 cm) wheelbase. In addition to the minor external aesthetic differences, such as larger rear wheel openings, the bumblebee tailstripe and fancier grille, and the taillight ornamentation, the Super Bee also used actual diecast chrome-plated "Bee" medallions. These three-dimensional medallions were prominently mounted in a raised position in the grille/hood area and the trunklid/taillight area of the car throughout the first three years of production.

The interior of the Super Bee borrowed the race car–inspired and more sophisticated gauge and speedometer dash cluster from the Dodge Charger, while the four-speed manual cars received a Hurst Competition-Plus shifter with Hurst linkage; this shifter compared to the Road Runner's less expensive Inland shifter and linkage. Due to the higher-quality accessories attached to the Super Bee, the car was sold at a higher price in comparison to its Plymouth cousin; this ultimately affected the model's sales numbers during the years it was produced.

The Super Bee, like nearly all Chrysler muscle cars of that era, was available with the Hemi engine; although, this option raised the price by 33%, and only 125 were sold. The 1968 model was only sold as a two-door coupe, with two engine options, the base 335 hp (250 kW) 383 Magnum, and the 426 Hemi, rated at 425 hp (317 kW).

The Super Bee included a heavy-duty suspension, an optional Mopar A-833 four-speed manual transmission, and high-performance tires. Outside, a stripe (with the bee logo) was wrapped around the tail.

A hardtop version joined the existing pillared coupe body in 1969 and a new optional twin-scooped air induction hood, the "Ramcharger", became available. This particular option was coded N-96 and was the counterpart to the Plymouth Road Runner's "Coyote Duster" air induction hood. The "Ramcharger" hood featured forward-facing scoops that were more efficient than the Road Runner's "twin vents", as the latter merely lay flat on the hood and did not force air into the carburetor(s) as the Super Bee's did.

A "six-pack" (three two-barrel carburetors) version of Dodge's 440 cubic-inch engine was added to the offering list mid-year. This option fell half-way between the standard engine and the Hemi as a USD463 option. The 1969 model year gave Chrysler customers several engines from which to choose—the base 383 hp (high performance), 440 Six Pack, and the 426 Hemi. The 440 Magnum (4bbl) was not an available option, and was reserved for the Coronet R/T.

For the 1970 model, the Super Bee received a cosmetic redesign and a new front-end was designed that consisted of a twin-looped front bumper that Dodge Public Relations referred to as "bumble bee wings". However, sales plummeted for the year from 15,506 in 1970 to 5,054 in 1971—because of, or in spite of, this new look, with another sales pressure coming from higher insurance rates for performance cars; the similar Plymouth Road Runner and Plymouth Duster both experienced similar sales issues. In addition to the new looks, engine choices and "ramcharger" hood carried over from 1969, the 1970 cars from Dodge featured several new or improved options. For example, a "C- stripe" variant of the bumble stripe was offered, in addition to new high-back bucket seats, a steering column-mounted ignition and a "pistol-grip" Hurst shifter on four-speed models.

Rumors have surfaced regarding the many concept and show vehicles that Chrysler produced during the muscle car era, including the production of four concept Super Bee convertibles. The whereabouts of these four cars are unknown, but, in the following year, the company reintroduced a limited run of approximately 5,000 of the concept vehicles before permanent discontinuation.
