My father had the same year and model, yellow with a factory six-pack. At the time he worked for a Dodge dealership in Pensacola Florida that serviced the Florida State Troopers vehicles. His boss ended up giving him a police interceptor engine and my dad put it into the Superbee. He ended up getting stationed in Germany and the vehicle set in our backyard for 3 yrs. It was gifted to me upon my me turning 15. 9 months prior to my 15th birthday upon my arrival home after school I find out that my mother sold it to a junkyard for $50.00, Why, you ask? S wanted a garden. way to go Mom...I have looked for a yellow 70 Superbee six-pack for 40 yrs one day I will have it. The hell with me ever having a garden...
Great episode! Props to all involved and most especially Mark who lets his team take equal time without "comedy". Wonderful story, incredible car, and gorgeous restoration!
I remember as a child my oldest brother coming home with a brand new ‘70 Dodge Coronet 500, it was blue with white interior. I remember at night under traffic lights it looked purple. Just wanted to share a fond memory.
I like your work very much and I don’t have the money to have one of these I don’t even have money to pay my bills and I must see this in my dreams too late because I am (71) years old God bless you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I left Graveyard Cars a couple years back. I struggled with Mark being Mark. I also know there is a lot to putting these kind of professional shows together. I grew up in the muscle car era being about 8 years older than Mark ,but probably look 14 years older. That working out is keeping you looking so good! I saw this Super Bee video pop up and had to view it. I. Had a 2 owner 69 Road Runner and a good friend of mine bought this new Dodge he wanted me to see I just saw it again!! Thanks. I was becoming a Mopar fan. He too was a Vietnam Veteran and purchased the car while overseas. 21 years old and paid cash. Worked many jobs as a kid and saved most of it. A great guy who still today is involved with older Mopar collecting at a small scale. Well to some it up , I am back. Video was great with a continuing high level of knowledge and professional skills and a nice level of Mark being Mark. Thanks from an old bow tie guy (😳) Joe
That is a awesome story with him and his car. Great episode. Thank you all Very Much for what you do, and sharing. Also, I agree with Doug , I don’t like death but yes .. Skulls are smiling 💀
This one gets a big WOW thanks for your service SI thanks for preserving an Icon loved these cars when I was young could not afford one good job ghouls. O ya you too mark
I dident like the super bee im more a charger or gtx guy but my word i have never seen a more beautifull car, it took my breath away. Will killed the paint. Well done GYC
Very, very beautiful car! I love it. I am very much drawn to details and I noticed the reproduced Super Bee stickers differ from original. The original sticker has slimmer letters. Especially the letter "S" is shaped differently if you look closely at 22:44. Having original decal photographed in high resolution is valuable reference for aftermarket stickers stickers corrected to the exact copy of the originals.
I agree with Mark I never bring that car home on that trailer . Who knows how much it cost restored that car from Mark GYC I'm thinking $500k or more and owner used a open trailer crazy lol . Will it his car and his money
Love a demon even though I wear bow ties can always appreciate your time and hard work more seriously the quality parts you have available I'm 46 so I remember when you destroyed a lower trim level car to be able to restore a Mopar I have been working on cars professionally since I was in middle school at 15 I put a 355 in my 86 cutlass then had 6 66 cars 3 impalas 2 were ss one vert mustang and a 500 galaxy XL 2dr 289 and c6 only year c6 behind a small block I didn't want rusty cars never had a Mopar my gramps told me that I would rather have no car than have to watch it rusting on the showroom lol but nowadays it's just the reason why they are so rare great to see the 400 finally got a aftermarket parts support and now cheap way to build a 512 thank God for 5 axis CNC
I have driven dodge much of my life. I strayed for about 10 years and learned a hard lesson with American made cars. Dodge are easier to work on and parts are much lower cost than the competitors, Ford and chevy. Every chevrolet I ever had and I'm 65 has literally fallen apart after about 120k on the odometer. My retirement vehicle will be a Toyota and likely the last vehicle I ever buy in my life.
Wy not use a clothing tape measure its made of soft plastic only the first quarter inch has a metal clip put some tape on that or remove it and hold that in place next to the light and you can see were it goes.
So what is the problem with a open trailer ? When he gets it home and drives it off the trailer it will be hit by rocks and bugs like every other car on the road, no?
@@user-t2l6h Who are you and who is Eric and if you knew me you would know i am the farthest of being gay ever. What kind of people do you hang out or are friends with?
I really wish these were organized by season I say that’s 1 because I can’t stand Daren it’s a shame he makes some of the episodes unbearable But it would also be nice to watch projects beginning to end
