My '69 Super Bee project

[chargin']

Hey B body enthusiasts.
I have had this car for about 20 years,put a tube chassis in it(back half) and did the bodywork on the rear section about 12 years ago.It's on a Bear's pro 4 link,with a 9 inch and discs.unfortunately I put it on hold....but recently have been motivated to finish the car!!I have most of the parts to do so.I'm currently doing the rest of the bodywork,and I'm slow at it,so the updates will be sporadic.

It should be sweet when it's finished. Just keep plugging away at it.

Looks great, what color you going with?

Thanks,I'm going with ek2 Go Mango.As much as I have the car modified I am particular on the original colors being correct! Not an easy thing these days to get the old colors in a solvent base!

Great project! That will look sweet with the color, sure looks like a solid Bee for sure. Good luck!

I have it in one coat of H S,time to fine tune and lots of long boarding!

A man after my own heart. Nice project and you can see we have something in common. What's the motor combo going to be?

Yes we do! That looks like a cool project! What are you doing for chassis and suspension? As for the engine,I'm going to yank the 474 wedge I have in my '68 Charger and put it in the Bee,and build something new for the Charger.

Hey I see your status says St. John's? I'm assuming Newfoundland? I'm in Torbay and am restoring a 69 roadrunner. Do you know where I can find some b body parts?

 

[Superfreak]

I have an Alterkation front suspension and a dana 60 with ladder bar suspension and wilwoods on all four. I have a 493 stroker I have listed.

Sorry,I have been away from the scene for a while! I would say anything around was brought in,as this is the rust capital of the world! Lol! Fred Cranford did have one on Roaches line,but it's probably dust now.Good luck with your Roadrunner!

 

[Deanfitz27]

Thanks, I spoke to Fred a couple of times, but he is hard to get to sell anything. Thanks

That is kick ***! Do you have a build thread? Also,would you mind letting me know how much the shipping was on the alterkation front end? I'm thinking about bringing one in for my Charger.Thank you for the motivation!!!

 

[Superfreak]

The Alterkation suspension with the wilwood brake kit, shipping and duties was $5800

What are you looking for? I live in St. John's as well, my name is Travis Thorne.

Made some adjustments,boarded it out,and shot more primer....not very exciting! Expecting some boxes of parts,that will make it better! LOL.

 

[Superfreak]

Looking good.......wish I was at this stage.

I had to cut the headlight frames out of the steel fenders and mount them in the glass ones.Fitting grille and bezels before I finish the bodywork.
