Stunning F6 1969 1/2 Dodge Coronet Superbee A12 4 Speed

One of the most correct A12 cars anywhere for any price, this stunning Super Bee is in a class by itself. Combining major league research, stellar looks, a brash appearance and six pack provenance this green 'Bee is a blue chip from start to finish.

For the numbers guys:

New, shiny paint outside is the first thing you notice. Spring Green Metallic looks awesome on the car, the body is exceptionally straight, the gaps are excellent and the doors close perfectly. Open the doors to reveal zinc plated latches and strikers as well as excellent paint in the jambs. Up front you'll find a freshly re-chromed bumper underneath a perfectly restored grille before moving up to that mammoth black hood. The riveted hood pin bezels are correct (only steel hoods got screws) as are the short lanyards. What little bright-work on the car (these weren't meant to dazzle you with chrome!) is in superb shape with an excellent shine. The rear bumper is also re-chromed and sits below a perfect, correct late style taillight set. Four correct gloss black steel "H" wheels are wrapped with brand new F70x15 Goodyear redlines (Goodyear doesn't make G70's yet, but we'd rather run the right brand.) The glass is all new and date coded. ZERO corners were cut on this car!

Pull the four pins to reveal the incredibly well detailed, date code correct engine. There's a correct 054 radiator up front, hooked up to the motor by reproduction radiator and heater hoses with correct Corbin clamps, all from Frank Badalson (i.e., they're the best you can buy.) Date coded correct spark plug wires connect to the original A12-specific dual point distributor and ride in reproduction wire looms. The original air cleaner assembly hosts a correct reproduction air cleaner element and hides the rebuilt and detailed carbs complete with the proper choke and fast idle solenoid assemblies. A new ballast resistor and wiper motor take up residence on the firewall next to the new master cylinder and engine wiring harness. The battery's right, with new cables, the correct PCV valve and hose are in place, a correct date coded belt, a date coded coil…the list goes on! What's really special, though, is the amount of time and effort put into getting every fastener correct, and correctly finished. Bright zinc plated parts mix with dull gray phosphate coatings for the fresh-from-Hamtramck look. There was more research done with the fasteners than most people spend on their entire cars!

This is a full rotisserie job with F6 paint everywhere, including the undercarriage. Freshly and concours-correctly rebuilt brakes front and rear bring the car to a halt with new lines and hoses. A new Don's Custom Exhaust system complete with reproduction Hemi mufflers and correct clamps sound great, fit great and look NOS. A new fuel tank and sender and new lines supply fuel forward. Again, research and time spent making sure finishes are exactly as they should be set this green monster apart. Proper inspection marks and stamps round out an extremely well detailed chassis. Open up to the trunk to find the spare, proper jack and a new trunk mat. All is fresh, all is show ready!

Inside you'll find a mix of mint original parts with high quality reproductions. Restored dash bezels and a new gauge lens add sparkle, as do the new armrest bases and inside door handles. All soft trim from the headliner to the door panels to the carpet is in perfect shape, as is the original Hurst shifter. The restored original gauges read brightly and accurately, the upper door frames were repainted and accent the new door panels, and the center console looks better than new.

Few cars are treated to the level of detail this car enjoys. Fewer still are as special or as collectable. This is as good as it gets for an A12 Super Bee!

About this auction & Best of Show Automotive

Convinced that collector car values are plummeting? Don't be fooled! While the value of mediocre cars has been steadily sliding with the economy over the past two years, the value of incredible cars has stayed level and, is rising. In times of economic uncertainty, capital flows to the highest quality assets which contain the least amount of risk and the classic car market is no exception. The lesson is simple: buy the very best you can find!

Please note that all sales are binding and final. Our cars are sold "as-is" with no warranty expressed or implied. Please carefully read the terms & conditions of the sale before bidding. Winning this auction does not entitle you to come inspect the car and decide if you want to buy it, but obligates you to complete the purchase!
