Survivor F6 Green 1969 1/2 A12 Super Bee. 24,000 original mile car. Original Window Sticker, Title and Many Docs. Original Paint. Original Matching #’s Engine. Original Fender Tag Original 054 Radiator Original Air Cleaner and carbs. Auto on the column. The car was purchased by my father two years ago from the second owner.. The Super Bee was used as a weekend warrior from day one. It original owner (now deceased) was best friends with the second owner. The original engine was pulled early in its life and a race engine was installed. The original engine was reinstalled by the second owner prior to my father purchasing the Bee. The car has 24K original miles however it can be assumed that the engine has far less than 24K miles. The car has not been cut up at all with the exception of a small area in the tunnel where a race shifter was installed. This is a very small area. We pulled off the deep sump oil pan and replaced it with a stock oil pan. At that time we looked into the bottom end of the engine and the engine looks like new with original pistons still in place. The trans has been replaced most likely at the time the race engine was installed. It now has a manual reverse valve body. The original Dana is still in place however at some point the gears were changed to a 3.73 ratio which actually makes for very nice highway cruising. The car still has line loc installed from the early 70’s. It works perfect and is hidden in the ash tray. At the time the original engine was installed back in the car the prior owner chose to spray the engine bay again. This is the only major area of the car that was repainted. The entire exterior is original paint except minor stone chip touch up. That being said if you have not seen an original paint car do not expect this car to appear to look like a base coat clear paint job. The paint is exceptional for 43 year old paint but it is not a glossy show car. It has factory orange peel and factory flaws. As you can see in the photos, the only rust issue is a very small hole approximately the size of an eraser on a pencil right in front of the passenger side tire. The tops of the front fenders have tell tale signs of weekend wrenching on the race engine that was removed. Elbow dings run up and down the tops of the fenders. The dings are noticeable but not obtrusive. They actually give the car part of its character. Some of you with a keen eye may have noticed the hood scoop is larger than a factory hood and probaby assumed it was a reproduction hood. It is not. It is the original hood to this car . The original hood was modified by a prior owner in an attempt to accept more air into the scoop. The original carbs are intact with the exception of the center carb which was replaced with an aftermarket at some point. The original center carb is in the trunk and is included in the sale. The car runs exceptionally well. It could be driven reliably anywhere and starts every time. It is very unique car being that it is unrestored and still very, very nice. The wheels and tires are Correct Reproductions. The wheels are reproduction H code wheels that have correct dates, stampings and size. The spare is an original H code wheel. The correct dimple lug nuts are also installed. The tires are reproduction Goodyear G-60-15’s. These are all new with a total cost of just over $4,000. I will address every issue that we are aware of with the car. -Aftermarket radio was removed and a factory 8 track was installed however is not hooked up and or working yet. -Engine bay items have been modified, IE Factory air cleaner lid has been chromed, power steering box is chromed, wrong valve covers, engine harness has been modified to accept electronic ignition, battery is now mounted in the trunk, headers installed. A couple weekends could put this engine bay area back to an original appearance. -Trans needs to warm up for a couple minutes and then runs fine. If you attempt to take off when cold it slips slightly. Once warmed up it runs like a bear with no slippage. Not sure why but guessing it may have something to do with the race build on the trans? -Traction bars and Hijacker air shocks installed. I would remove them. Your choice. -Keystone aftermarket rear mud flaps are installed only with wheel opening molding factory screw location. Easily removed if needed.
-Side Scoops were added and are not original to this car. Reason my dad is selling this car is simply because it is way too nice to restore and my father wants a project car. He has just retired and is looking to start a resto on one of our projects. The car is priced very fair for a Survivor A12 Bee. There is nothing hiding on this car. You can pay $70K and up for a restored one that may have had every panel replaced but you will not get many chances to own an A12 that has never been taken apart. He is aware he will never replace this car again. Please let me know what you need to see for pics and I will get you what you need. I will answer email late each night. Thank you and good luck bidding. I have many photos especially of the underneath however was unable to add anymore photos. Let me know if you want more photos and I can send them to you. |

McLaren, Koenigsegg, Toyota, Ford, Dodge and Corvette Lego kits announced for 2021
Tue, May 4 2021Lego has announced a slew of car-themed sets for 2021. The six kits comprise nine vehicles and fall under the brick pusher's Speed Champion line of official OEM-licensed kits. News of their arrival comes from German toy retailer JB Spielwaren's pre-order listings, which show three single-car sets and three dual-car sets of matched marques. Starting with the McLaren Elva roadster, the kit consists of 263 pieces and is finished in blue. It seems to have a difficult time capturing the curves of the real-life Elva, but there's only so much you can do with a bunch of plastic blocks. Lego has made several other McLaren kits before, including the Senna, 720S, and a more advanced Senna GTR for the Technics line. Next up is the Koenigsegg Jesko, made up of 280 pieces and finished in white. Though the real-life Jesko is still curvy, this kit does a better job of replicating its aggressive maw, vents and cantilevered rear wing. Rounding out the single-car sets is the 299-piece Toyota GR Supra in yellow. This marks the first time Toyota has lent their license to Lego. Again, it struggles a bit to represent the curvy Supra, relying on printed details like logos and headlights to identify. On the other hand, the Chevrolet two-car does a stupendous job with the 1968 Corvette. The C3 is instantly recognizable as such. The C8-R race car it's paired with suffers from the same issues as some of the previous cars, though. The set contains 512 pieces, and funnily enough the C8 driver has short hair while the C3 driver sports a period-correct wavy mane. The next set is a 627-piece Mopar-themed pair, including a purple (Plum Crazy?) 1970 Dodge Challenger T/A and an SRT top fuel dragster. The race car is spot on, but the Challenger was probably tough to make given the width restrictions. It looks a couple of pegs too narrow compared to the wide proportions of the real deal. Last but not least, the Ford set contains a Bronco R and Ford GT Heritage Edition. Consisting of 660 pieces, the set does an excellent job of representing both cars. The GT looks faithful in its Gulf livery, and the Bronco R looks more like a real Bronco than the actual Bronco R race truck. All in all, it's always fun to see more Lego sets with real cars, and we're glad to see more manufacturers added to the roster. The single-car sets are recommended for ages 7 and up, while the double-car sets have an 8 years and up rating. Price in U.S.

Cars.com runs 11-second quarter with Dodge Charger Hellcat
Mon, Jun 1 2015The Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and its Challenger sibling are two of the heroes of the modern performance world. With a headline-grabbing 707 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, their output even shames many supercars. But how quick can one really cover a quarter mile? Cars.com recently decided to find out by taking a Charger Hellcat to the drag strip to see if the sedan lived up to Dodge's 11-second claims. The results were quite impressive. After 13 quarter-mile runs of adjusting variables like the tire pressures and the car's various electronic aids, the Charger Hellcat managed a pass in 11.03 seconds at 126.61 mph – the pinnacle result of the day. This car was mechanically stock and wore the optional Pirelli P Zero tires. According to Cars.com, other quick sprints reached 11.09 seconds and 11.1 seconds, which even beat the site's 11.41-second best from a Challenger Hellcat last year. Getting the Hellcat's prodigious power down without losing traction was a challenge, even on the summer tires. Cars.com thought it had a run that could have dropped below 11 seconds, but then the wheels spun. Using the factory-recommended pressures, the Charger Hellcat was no still slouch with an 11.27-second time recorded, but taking things down to 25 psi proved the quickest at the strip. We already knew that the Charger Hellcat was a wonderful vehicle for eating up huge gulps of asphalt at high speeds and could verify its 204-mile-per-hour top speed (quite a bit faster, incidentally, than the Ferrari California T's 196 mph top-speed). Apparently, the 11-second quarter-mile claim is just as accurate. Also, for any curious owners, the Cars.com story divulges many of the tweaks required to reach this seriously quick time.
