What we have here is a stunning 1970 "V Code" Dodge Coronet Superbee with 149, unknown miles on the odometer. This car is finished in a near perfect Dark Burnt Orange Metallic and has a complementary Dark Burnt Orange Vinyl bucket interior. Overall, this car is in great condition, is mechanically sound and very fast.

This 1970 Dodge Coronet Superbee is one of 1,072 440-powered hardtops built. Power is provided by a non-numbers-matching 496ci stroker V8 with a 440 block built by "Barbara Ann" Spiro and backed by a 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission built by FB Performance Transmissions; this is blanketed and rated for 750 horsepower. The engine is reported to produce 500 horsepower and 550 lb-ft of torque at the wheels between 4,500 and 6,000 rpm. Underhood features include a 570 UltraDyne camshaft with solid lifters and 906 ported and polished heads, Three 2-barrel carburetors (6 Pack), an MSD ignition, power steering and finned, cast aluminum valve covers.
Options include power brakes, power steering, a factory tick-tock tachometer, a PST suspension kit, steel wheels with beauty rings, and a rare Gator Grain vinyl top. This Dark Burnt Orange Metallic Super Bee with a Dark Burnt Orange vinyl interior is available now and comes with a Galen's Registry report, receipts, a broadcast sheet, and is being sold with a Bill of Sale and a transferable New Hampshire registration.

Originally built at the Lynch Road Assembly plant in Detroit, this car was repainted approximately 4 years ago in the correct color of Dark Burnt Orange Metallic (FK5) as verified by the trim tag. Features include chrome bumpers, quad headlights, a 440 6-pack power bulge hood, a white Super Bee tail stripe, and a black Gator Grain vinyl roof.

A set of 15-inch Steel wheels is wrapped in Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires, 225/70R on the front and 275/60R on the rear. The passenger side mirror was added to make the car appear symmetrical.

The front bucket seats and matching rear seat, trim, and door panels are upholstered with Dark Burnt Orange vinyl. Features include an orange steel dashboard, a console-mounted automatic shifter, orange carpeting with matching Superbee Mats, power steering, power brakes, and manual windows.

A 150-mph speedometer, an 8K-rpm tick-tock tachometer, and gauges for the fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and generator are located in a simulated woodgrain panel ahead of the driver. An additional set of three aftermarket gauges for the oil pressure, voltage, and water temperature are mounted under the dashboard. The speedometer is not working but the car comes with a replacement factory head.

This Super Bee came factory-equipped with an independent front suspension and a solid rear drive axle. Upgrades include a new fuel tank, full PST suspension kit with subframe connectors, an 8.75-inch rear axle with posi-traction and 3.91 gearing, a Borla dual exhaust system with electric cut-outs, and CALTRACS traction bars. The power steering is high performance power steering from a 1980's police car. Braking power is provided by front discs and rear drums. The bottom was been undercoated to protect the car.

This is a great classic Muscle Car so do not let the chance to own it pass you by.
