Yes, a few times, my old man own one when he was young, although it may sound strange you you people, this A body were build by the Chrysler corporation in Mexico,the guy in the ad is right 340 cylinder heads he doesn't know also the 318 build here have a forged crankshaft, and yes a Dana 60 came from factory and a A833 with the hurts shifter, some of them used as police cars, fast as hell, check in FABO those guys may know more about this, what I can't see is the automex label in the inner door. also check the Brazilian charger another beautiful A body.

The American a body designers could used a little bit more inspiration from their foreign counterparts, especially in the graphics devision.

Huh! Learn something new everyday! I've never seen the Mexico Chargers before. Pretty cool tweak on the Dart platform! I have also never heard of a 1971 Valiant SuperBee!

Yes, I've seen pictures of the Mexican Mopars like that one.... beautiful, rare car & in my opinion a good deal at the asking price (but still offer less). I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Fastest car in Mexico for a long time, after the 318, Chrysler put the 300hp version of the 360 in the super bee.

A local restaurant owner(native of mexico) had his brother drive his Mexican bee up from central Mexico. I see him park it out front of his restaurant a few times each summer. He says it was his fathers car growing up

Do you happen to know his name? Could it be Enrique perhaps? (not being facetious here, I used to know a guy up here in Chicago with a yellow Mexicano Bee that was still back home)
