I Drove 4,000 Miles to Buy My Dream Car | FORGOTTEN 1970 Dodge Super Bee

[@williesweetjr8713]

19:14 best commentary on this hobby ever! Always loved a Super Bee.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thanks for watching!

[@RandDCustoms2]

These cars are growing on me! Love the Satty so this should be right up that same alley! Can’t wait to see what you can do with it!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

These old Mopars are a sickness I tell ya! Gotta have em all!

[@moparconnection]

Great job with the video, Dave! I’m jazzed with how excited you are to work on the ‘Bee. So glad it’s now in your hands! -K

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thanks man! 😎🤙

[@dogdoc1]

Again, I must say I'm glad things worked out with you getting this car. For a moment I thought it wasn't going to work out, and this car would disappear and we Mopar nuts wouldn't know its outcome, but now it will have a Present and a Future that we all (especially Kevin) can see playout on your channel. Very good 😎👍

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Yes sir! Can't wait to get started on it!

[@dochlldy]

Just like you,I have always loved that front end.Looking forward to seeing how it ends up.By the way,thanks for the memories.It been many years since I drove 84 to Ogden.Beautiful drive,unless it's snowing.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thanks for watching!

[@dogdoc1]

I watched Joe's videos of that engine. Did not know it was yours. Exxxceeellent....👍

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

It's a beast! Can't wait to get it in the Satty!

[@karlschroen392]

Super unique color combo, awesome that its a post too. I just picked up a 70 superbee myself and my dad has one. They are the best.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Beige & orange would not have been my first choice! But I still love it!

[@bradduczek6981]

nothing better than a Super Bee

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I agree!

[@MoparRob-66BEL]

Great video! Love Joe , always seems like a humble dude but so knowledgeable.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

He's the real deal!

[@JimJacobson-o4y]

Just surfed into your channel! We used to live in Ogden & I was the building super at the Eccles convention center. We then moved to Phoenix & finally to West St Paul mn. I've got a number of super bees that say Hot Wheels on the bottom! Got about 4000 hot wheels, matchbox & others hanging in my basement! The 70 r/t is my dream car but I can't seem to stretch them any bigger! Good luck on the bee, I'll follow on your channel.

Nice acquisition. Looking forward to seeing the build.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thanks brother! 😎🤙

[@r3drocket659]

Awesome man! Over the years, these cars have become cooler and cooler to me, to where they are now in my top 3 favorite dodges. I'm pretty stoked to see what you do with it man. Some people might not like the color combo. But, it being a weird one, I think it brought back to life with original colors would be super sweet to see. I've never seen a bee like that. Congrats on the passenger upgrade too lol (I dont know your business and hope i dont sound like a dick, just seen other comments so i wanted to say congrats)

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I appreciate that thank you! The color combo is VERY strange to me too. Only 25 coupes were made in beige. Probably even less with orange interior. Could be the only one of its kind!

[@ellisbartlett2942]

Great stuff buddy, can’t wait to see her done

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Appreciate it! Can’t wait to get started!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@Bruningable]

Fantastic!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@prorebuilder]

I was hoping you would buy that car. It is one of my bucket list cars. A close friend owned and restored a 70 Coronet R/T Hemi 4 Speed. We took it to Mecum in Chicago and got a very positive response. It was 1 of 5. - They called this the Lost Canadian car. It was a good trip, went to the Cuda Cave. Met lots of really nice people. Look forward to this build.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Way cool! I’m really excited about this one!

[@pdrga]

was it purple ,Chris Coulson car

[@prorebuilder]

@@pdrga Yes, Thats the car.

[@Jeff-io2zn]

I love these cars from the firewall back. That front end just freaks me out. Have fun though. Still want to see how it turns out.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I wasn't a huge fan for a long time, but man, it definitely grows on you!

[@autonomous_collective]

.... Congrats on the Car purchase and engine build. Note: its a 499ci.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Thanks!

[@acardiac5983]

This car is in way better shape than the 68 Charger was. This will be an awesome build!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Sure is! I don't want to say this one is an easy build, but it's definitely better than most of the ones I've built on the channel!

[@RandomPrecisionMotors]

In 1974 I was 14 and my Uncle, who resided in S.W. Virginia literally a stone's throw from Bristol TN. had a 1970 Super Bee. It was Baby Blue (not Petty Blue) with a White Vinyl Roof, White Interior had the 2 side vent Hood, if memory serves it was a 383 car, 4sp, not sure of the Diff but I do remember it did 2 wheel burnouts. And the thing about his car was it had a Daytona Wing, albeit half the height. I've only ever seen 2 Super Bees that had the wing...his and another Orange one I found online. I'm gonna be following THIS one closely...nice score! What's the plan for the Engine already in the Satellite?

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I think I’ll build it into a 528 stroker & stuff it in the Charger!

[@vincevalenti84]

good luck with the build........ill be at the moparty this year......

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Hopefully you'll see it there! If it's not ready in time I'll be bringing the Satty!

[@sec1868.]

1970 Super Bee is the best looking muscle car in my opinion!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I agree... it doesn't get much better!

[@66skate]

The front of those reminds me of the rear of a 67 Polara or Monaco.

[@joelshaffer36]

Of all three mopars you have now which one is going to be done first??? All three are cool !!!

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

I don’t know if they’ll all ever be truly done. I’ll always be tinkering on something or making it look better, faster, etc. The Cuda & the Charger are both going to be higher end show cars. The Bee & the Satty are going to be my racing war dogs.

[@mistercornulio228]

Love the car.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

You & me both!

[@markskonecki2050]

my very first car when i was 15 was a 70 coronet rt that i bought with my paper route money in 1985 of course being in wisconsin, the car was a rust bucket but it still had its 440 that ran like a clock as soon as my mom called the insurance company ...she looked at me and said they told me they wont insure you...they said your going to die in that car...lol haha

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

My tetanus shots are up to date, so I hope to not die from this one anytime soon!

[@mana-ma-non3072]

I admire the purchases. You now have my top 3 cars in your fleet, only difference is my #2 car would be a 69 charger. By chance is a 71 roadrunner in your top 5 list?

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Not at the moment... But they all have a tendency to grow on me!

[@SandraOrminski]

the gto sold the most in 1970. dodge in 70 copied the nose and ill tell you its a hell of a lot better than the gto. not only that but the last year for the coronet 2 door. in 1971 the coronet and satellite are based on the e-body platforms. years ago i had a 1973 plymouth satellite sebring plus with a 400 2 bbl, 3:23 with towing package. it towed good yes i put a tow hitch on it? it got 14-16 mpg. it also rode like a dodge power wagon. had them air shocks on it. had the power of a 318. that 70 reminds me of youre 68 charger that you pieced back together. ill be watching this one also. my 69 coronet got in a accident in september and luckily im fixing it. it looked like a train hit it. 35 mph t-bone. passenger frame rail passenger door were the flip out visor has a 1 inch gap. the crash was horrifiying. i lost the brakes. the brake pedal got hard had no assist. it will need more work but i have a freind who owns a body shop with a frame machine and he will figure it out.i bought the car 25 years ago it had a 318 in it and i put a 440 in it. ran it at the track ran 14.34 at about 98 mph low comp with stock cam. you know you allways want more. if i knew how to send a picture i would show how bad the car was. in the spring ill be taking it apart and putting it back together etc. the 440 also survived. i have a cut on my forehead that was the worst 15 stitches. anyway scaring you about this ill be watching the next build. you should put a parachute on that 70 when youre done.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

Might need one with the plans I have for it!

[@jmendo2546]

You 100% have the Classic Car collecting bug lol That many enthusiasts have 🤣once were financially stable enough to buy our "Dream car project's" 👍and start all 10 and never have one fully done ☹because money/family/time or health. This Super Bee has a C stripe very cool. Plum crazy purple, white C stripe, white interior, 4 speed big block air grabber 2 scoop hood.

[@rustbucketrestos6511]

AMEN! Definitely a process... I look at it from the perspective that finding them is always the hardest part! Especially when the price is right! When they come up & the price is fair, you have to jump on them!

Nice, I never seen that color on a super bee, but then again, I'm chevy guy and don't keep track on mopar stuff. got little story, my uncle purchases a brand-new super bee 1970. order it with hemi,4 speed, blue with white interior, white strip. story he told me he went to pick it up and the car was blue with black interior and refused to take it. dealership reordered correct car and months later he got it, and the other car was sold. my uncle said he was kind of surprise the other car was sold, because insurance I guess was a big deal with muscle cars back then. if I'm correct there was only 26 hemi super bees sold and most were 4 speed hemi cars. both cars were sold in Madison wis. unfortunately, he rolled the car over in a rainstorm and drive train went into a drag car.
