So I have talked about my neighbor on here before.
He was a super stock racer from way back.
These were 2 of his cars .
a 69 1/2 440 6 pack Super Bee he bought when it had 600 miles on it and raced for years. Another friend boght the car and owned it for many years and sold just a few years ago.
The 70 Cuda was an original 383 4 speed.
He raced it as a 383, a Hemi and then changed it to look like a 74 and ran 360's because they were cheaper.
In the one picture when he was building it he got doors from Dave Wren.
He sold the car a year or so ago.
A guy in south western Washington has it now I believe ?
I also think the guy who has it now re did the entire car.
Anyways i thought these pics were cool and his stories are cool to hear.

Worth mentioning that his wife drove the 360 version for many years and she won super stock at the northwest nationals in Seattle with the car.

A great photo of the bee. What color was the car? Was it born and automatic?

Yes Bill's wife Diane drove the car in the 360 form.
No the super bee was a factory 4 speed.
The Cuda originally was a 4 speed as well,later converted to an auto.
The super bee was red.
