it looks really simple, and extremely effective at getting a rust free desirable car from one rusted out POS and a plain jane, who gives a damn, 6 cylinder car
Yikes, this ol Bee had some serious cancer on the bottom!
but this Coronet 440 (which has nothing to do with the 440 cu in engine, it's the bottom of the barrel cheapest model line, and looking over to the far side, it was a 4 door maybe... a Coronet 500 was another lower trim level model) looks reamrkable well preserved
and bingo! Someone will have a car to love for decades to come

a butterscotch A12 Super Bee, 71k miles, replacement engine block already repainted and repaired for driveability, already been flipped once or twice
no power brakes, no power steering, too much fresh paint, lots of quick cheap easy work has been done, but they ignored simple work like taking apart and cleaning the front end

back in 1969, a fellow drove 8 hours from Prince Rupert, British Columbia to buy the family a new car, a brand new A12 Super Bee. Once he got it home, he took his wife for a ride and she told him he was selling it and to take it back to the dealership. He did.
a young couple were there test driving a hemi R/T, with manual brakes and manual steering.
The small wife decided it wasn't right for a daily driver, as her 90 pounds found it difficult to park... that front heavy car's armstrong steering is no fun.
But when they got back to the dealership, she noticed this freshly returned A12 Super Bee sitting on the lot. After driving the car, the couple realized it was much more suitable for daily driving duties so they purchased the Bee and took it home to Williams Lake.
They used it as the daily driver for 18 years.
Then it was bought and sold, and bought and sold and restored, and hit the car shows.
In 2011, Ray and his wife Rachelle towed the car up to a car show in Williams Lake “While we were at the show, a woman driving past noticed the Super Bee parked in the show. She hit the brakes at the end of the road, turned around and came back. She parked and came up to us and said, “That’s my old car!”
“After talking to her for a bit, she went home and brought back some old photos of the car, the original registration papers, original keys and the Super Bee emblem that was broken off the trunk lid. After the show, we took her and her grand kids for a ride in the car. It was really cool! Since then, we’ve kept in touch with the family and always send them photos of the car to let them know it has a good and pampered life.”

a lot ended up like this with only a few miles on them.
trees and telephone poles took out a lot of cars... what is more terrible is that the rest of the parts on cars like this are fantastic... on this Bee, the grill, front bumper, headlight bucket, scoops, maybe the hood, the turn signal lenses, and maybe the engine... plus the gears, rear axle, brake drums, tail light panel, brake light lenses, gas tank, etc

Pure Vision's Road Bee, a 1970 Plymouth RoadRunner body and a ’69 Dodge Super Bee front clip
Something I hadn't noticed before, the ’69 Dodge Coronet/Super Bee door was the ’70 Satellite/Road Runner/GTX door over at Plymouth. 
Owner Mike Jadon on the unusual combination. “I was liking the ’70 Roadrunner and the ’69 Super Bee after seeing the Petrol Charger [also built by Steve], so I gave him a call,” Mike says. “I was raised in the Canoga Park area of California, which was filled with street machines like this one. To me, that early ’80s look has always been the quintessential look for a muscle car.” Mike also remembered doing a little street racing with his uncle in a ’69 Charger in the late ’70s. They got beat by a four-speed Coronet, so Mike made sure his build had a stick.

just before drag racer Terry Sevener passed away, during chemotherapy actually, he opened his garage for a photographer to come through and admire his collection
the A12 Bee looks like it has "The Machine" rims from an AMC Rebel Machine
the 69 R/T has the A12 engine, but the exhaust manifolds are from the 63 maxie in the garage
this Superbird has a Petty autograph on the nose
buried under boxes in the garage are a 68 Bee and the 63 maxie
