I found a Super Bee at a storage place today!

Post by DeLorean00 » Tue Feb 26, 2008 8:30 pm

I know, I know, not a plymouth but I thought you guys would enjoy it. Its all there and looks un-restored. Faded paint and slot mags, look right out of 1970's. I could not find any rust, but I was 10 feet away. What is one of these worth? I was thinking about trying to track down the owner and make an offer. But I'm sure even if I find the owner I'm sure they will say its not for sale and that they are going to restore it someday.

I'd guess about $15-30K depending on condition....they are somewhat rare, if I remember correctly.....

So I assume your willing to fly out here and help me borrow it? LoL :D

I might go back by that place and see if they can pass my information on to the owner. I doubt they will because it will mean they will lose money if the car leaves. But we will see.

It would be easy....well stack a bunch of junk in the shape of the superbee and cover it so it looks like the cars still there.and then we will cover the car on the crane and have a sign on it that says"This is not a Stolen 1971 Yellow SuperBee"

I am so for serious right now...
Look how for serious i am -_-

Weird that it has the "failed smog" sticker on the back window since it's in California. Shouldn't have to smog a '71. Unless it can mean other things too, but it usually means he has until "11" (read: November) to get it to pass smog.

That looks like my old 71 charger..... I never did understand superbees. 1st they were based on coronets then presto they were based on chargers.



I dont even know how to comment on this:

Mexican Super Bees

Around 1970, the Mexican-market Dodge Dart had a Super Bee package; Super Bees were based on the Demon/Dart Sport semi-fastback Mopar A platform until 1976, and the F platform (based on the Dodge Aspen coupe) between 1977-79 (sold in Mexico as part of the Dodge Valiant Volare series).

Those are moving passes, some are good for a day, some are good for a month. It probably means they had the car non-op'ed and they got the pass to drive the car to the storage area.
