1971 Super Bee numbers 383 4 speed.
I am selling this one fast on Ebay to buy another car I found, so here is some info before the bidding begins. This is a close copy of the post i put on DC.com, but I figure some E body guys might like to check it out...
It has a Pistol grip, new 3.55 rear gear, aluminum intake, Factory HP manifolds, new purple cam, holley carb, and is a real real car and not a clone. Clear title and in place fender tag. Numbers are said to be matching...I will be checking for sure. Body is ektdeuL, in otherwords solid... FC7 is not original, but it looks like it was taken apart completely for paint. Original was GK6 Dark Bronze Metallic.
I drove it around for a while and it is alot of fun and has lots of power. Shifting was a bit notchy due to my inexperiance with that gearbox, or bushings getting worn in the linkage. Danm 1st and reverse are close.....Now I know why they added the reverse indicator "idiot" light...Unfortunatly it was burnt out..... Brakes are ok, but could use some shoes or pads soon (heard a squeek a few times under hard braking). Sounds great, drives straight. Wheel is slightly cocked to the side and could use a centering. Tach and radio are inop....I will be looking into that and I will be checking for build sheet tomarrow.
It is one of the 766 made with the 383 magnum and the 4 speed, making it quite rare. Paint is very good and glossy, the stripes are nice, but it was a V68 stripe delete car from the factory. The interior is nice, but when picking it over close it would only pass as driver quality. To be perfect it would need a little tidy-up-ing. Trunk is great, but needs to be de-scummed. Engine bay is good, but could use a detail. A full detail would demand a good deal more money for this car, but I am a cheap ass and too busy (or lazy) to do it on my own.
IMHO it is a really nice driver. About a number 2 as defined by "Old Cars Price Guide" standards. They Show $21000 as a number 2 and $13500 as number 3 with no differance between the autos and 4 speeds. (this is from the april 2006 book mind you...so they may have gone up). Number 1 shows $30000. I am setting reserve around the low end of number 2 to the mid to high of number 3. You do the math. Detailed pictures will be listed on our photo link listed in the auction, and by detailed I mean about 50 or more.
This car is being auctioned on ebay starting June 10th and ending June 17th 2006. If I get a reasonable phone offer I reserve the right to let it go, but I think I may just let this one ride and see what happens. It needs to sell so i can get another car that I MUST HAVE! The ebay user name we will be using is RSAGEL ( company owner of Rose Motorsports Inc ). I can help with shipping worldwide and probably financing as low as 6%.
