Cool Mopar...yeah I know...It ain't a Pontiac
 

Just found out one of my good customers has a pretty rare car. He's a a little younger than me and works at a local body shop. It's a 69 1/2 A12 Superbee. Hemmings Muscle Machines magazine featured it on their cover in the March 2010 issue and did a 6 page spread on it.

I had seen him drive it to our shop before and had no idea it was such a rare car. I have never really been into Mopars myself. Anyway... here is a link to the article and more photos.

It's a cool story! Just thought I would share it with y'all!!

:D

one of the most bad ass mopars ever!

I always liked a Super Bee, Not my Favorite color but I'd live with it. Nice ride

Cool car for sure. Those 60's and early 70's Mopar Musclecars just screamed "street brawler". http://www.smilieshq.com/smilies/happy0024.gif

Ehhh..., those A12 cars are a dime a dozen- and no match for even a 350 Lemans- check the bottom link in my signature.;)

In-correct.You think you beating an "un-known MOPAR" by 2/10's ONCE means anything?

Red/black vinyl top RR looks like James Cook, though not certain. Ed Cook's(James' father) FAST legal A12 runs 10.60s, Scott McKenzie(FAT A12) is in the 11s.

Ed(black RR) and James 4sp(red with black vinyl top) here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IYD37uVh2w

10.68 and 10.78.

And the REALLY fast F.A.S.T. guys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UcYp3yHw_g


Those guys are haulin' the mail on G70 bias ply tires.

I enjoyed reading the article...it's a good story. Funny how little I know about Mopars. I never imagined it being that cool. Guess next time he drives it over I will have to take it for a spin.

sweet car...it would look good in the Goat paddock

Ihave some cousins up in Washington with one. Its a born with drivetrain original paint garage car... Their dad bought it in '71 for $1600. It looks like the one in the pic except it has a black vinyl top.

Very nice...these cars, and the Road Runners are very cool rides...some of Mopar's best.

cool car
 

I nearly bought one of those , but a guy who owned one told me that they are a hand full on the handling department , so I bought the GTO.

If it would handle better it would probably run circles around me. :)

Awesome car! I have to admit....I have a soft spot for Mopars. My Dad had a '69 Road Runner with the 383 and 4 speed when I was a kid.....loved that car.

Although I love Grand Prix's I am currently restoring my 70 440-6 Cuda.I bought it in 1980 when I was a kid and it was a real street warrior. Still has the orig. engine, hemi 4 spd. and Dana 60 rear!:usa2:

Nice car!
I had a couple of Mopar's back in the 70's, a 70 Barracuda Gran Coupe 383 auto and a 67 RT ragtop, 440 auto.

...always a MOPAR guy here, still have several including an A12 Bee...yes, they are like driving a truck around town

Saw this yesterday in a 70 E-body

I always liked those old Mopars. I used to know of one that used to run around the east side of Columbus Ohio back in the early 80's. And I started racing in a 69 383 4speed RR back in '77 and never lost a race. I'd love to find another one just to play with.

Cool Mopar ,, Here is a couple pics of my Father-in-laws 75 Dart Sport "Hang Ten" edition .
