70 bee's from hell

[SPAULDO]

This is what happens when you love mopars but happen to live in the rust belt. I don't see myself the having any nothing to do issues presently or as I slide into retirement. I may end up having to work an extra 15 years just to fund these projects? I hope that I'm not the only one going through MOPARDATION?:iamwithstupid:

I take it you like 70 model Bee's. Definitely got your hands full for awhile.
AMD going to love you with those three cars.

 

[detmatt1]

That is awesome! I love project cars, something about the way you find them and how each one has survived the years differently. Yours are great and I would love to hear the stories that came along with them.

Matt,
I would really enjoy sitting down with you sometime and chatting about our mopar finds. You always seem to have something I've had in the past or would really want to presently own? I just drove over your way last fall to pick up some parts from a guy in Flat Rock who had any amount of mopar parts and was very reasonable about pricing them as well. I wanted in the worst way to drive from Flat Rock to Muskegon on back roads to hunt more mopars down but my better half just wasn't feeling it at $3.80-$4.00 plus a gallon for fuel. Seems to me like,MI has a good share of muscle still laying around? If you ever find yourself in Duluth MN. or any place North of let me know!

Man alive, it's like the back half of those Bee's were dipped in steel desolving acid! Good luck with the projects as I'm sure once you get in there, there will be more rust waiting as is the case with most rust belt rides.

Man...I'm gonna have to take a drive west and check out that Minnesota Superbee museum you got going on there

 

[shag766]

buddy good for you. you don't have to worry about what to do tomorrow when you retire. i am semi retired and started playing with the old cars, or back to my adolesence years, about 8 years ago and having a blast. i wish you the same, good luck.:headbang:

I've been learning more and more about these 70 Bee's and really like the look of them.I sure hope you post more pics once you start restoring them...very cool!If you get the chance have a look at an outfit called "The Muscle Rod Shop" and see what they've done to a couple 70 Bee's...really cool stuff

I know just who you're talking about in Flat Rock(so does Propwash). There are many great treasures still waiting to be found here in MI and I find proof all the time. Wish I could buy them all! I have been scoring on some great parts lots as well lately too. I've picked up a couple recently that I will be talking about more soon. Would love to get together sometime and share some stories.

Very nice SPAULDO!! That one green one on the trailer there looks cool and mean..

 

[WP29440SE]

uuuuuugh , i love those 70 coronets, man i wish i could find another one, you are a lucky guy to have those sitting around.i am soo jealous

 

[arizona satellite]

some very savable examples you have there!!mopar should have stayed with that body another couple of years, super tough looking! the best of luck with their build-up.

 

[jamesdaytona]

I had a rust belt refugee too . This is how mine looked when I got it . Truck driver came and bought it before I got out the chisel & grinder .

 

[SPAULDO]

I sure wish they made full quarters for the 70 Bee. I have more rust in one panel than your whole car does! What's holding that filler in place?

 

[Propwash]

What's holding that filler in place?

The worst part is, someone spent a lot of time and effort getting all that bargain city Bondo in place and flattened out because they thought it was a good idea. Probably would have taken half the time and work to just put a skin on
