1970 Superbee

Always liked David Freiburger's Superbee. Great show, great guys, great cars. So why not to have one in my shelves. I did not intend to make a perfect copy, just the basic appearance. Roll cage and some instruments were added, wheels and tires I believe are from the AMT Charger 500 (I am not 100% satisfied with the back wheels, anyway....). The cross-ram intake is from Missing Link. All the rest is scratch build. The build was fun, hope you guys enjoy it.

Really like this build!  Colors, stance and details all look terrific!  I think the wheel/tire combo you used is one thing that really sets this build off; I wouldn't change a thing!  Did you scratchbuild the rear/side window glass; it doesn't look like a kit part?

Great looking Superbee....loving the engine detail!

Im working on the pro street version. I dont like how the front grill sit betwwe the fenders. Deciding if i should try and recess it or just live with it.

Anyway, nice work on yours!

Thanks. :) ...The side windows are part of the AMT roadrunner kits, I think the superbee kits are having them, too. Not sure if all of them anyway. Just cut the front part and you have it.

Great build! Did the engine parts and scoop come from the Hemi dart kit?

Thanks. The engine is mostly the AMT Roadrunner Hemi, air cleaners, too. The cross ram intake is from Missing Link, carburators and ignition distributor are from the Revell Charger, rest is scratch. The hood is taken from the Revell Landy Charger kit.
