Huntington Station, New York, United States
|
Up for offering today is a 1969 Super Bee 440 Six Pack car, 23,000 miles and in the very rare color combination. This was a special order car , Bahama Yellow and Red Bumble Bee striping. The car is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, the paint and bodywork were done to a very high standard. The car was disassembled,repaired,refinished and reassembled. The current owner has owned it for 10 years ++, it was not built to to make a profit,it was done to add to his collection. The underside is as nice as they come, nicely detailed. The vehicle originally came from Wisconsin, 2 owners there, then purchased by an exotic car collector in California. The car was then purchased by its current owner in Long Island,New York. At this point, the collection rarely sees the light of day and the current owner has decided to let some or possibly all the cars go. The Super Bee with the A12 engine conversion package is one of the most sought after factory combinations. The car offered here has its original, engine properly dated and correct sequence #, the engine runs strong, pulls great and sounds like a 440 Six Pack should. Transmission is also correct, both pad stampings can be seen in the photographs.The transmission shifts well, a factory Hurst shifter as well.The Dana 60 rear has 4.10 gearing with sure-grip.The radial "Red Lines" give the car the correct look and allow it to be driven safely. As you can see from the pictures it has great lines, the car will not disappoint any serious buyer. Given the rarity of the car, the unique color combo and the fact that she still sports the driveline she was born with, this should put this car into a very elite group of cars. I do not have the original build sheet,just a copy, it was decoded by Galen Govier,a copy of that is available for information. Please,if you are a serious buyer ,I have all the time in the world , I will help you get it anywhere, I will work with you regarding pre-purchase inspections, I want to help. The current owner is healthy, not getting a divorce and doesn't need to sell, please keep offers real, NO TRADES. The car has gone about 80 miles a year since the current owner has had it, it needs to be used, I have cleaned up the carbs, dropped the fuel tank and cleaned her up, the AM radio is currently not working , the dimmer switch is touchy , the car would benefit from being used more frequently. It is not perfect, but it is attainable for the new owner. I will add a couple of pictures during the auction as it moves along. The high bidder will be responsible for all transport,taxes,fees and associated with the pre-purchase inspection and logistics. A $2,000 non-refundable deposit will be required within 48 hours of auction end. I also will need to exchange contact info and addresses. |

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
1970 Hemi Challenger is a family heirloom with serious muscle
Wed, Dec 30 2015Petrolicious turns up the emotion in its latest video about a family's connection to their 1970 Dodge Challenger. The orange muscle car that gets the spotlight here is a remarkably beautiful vehicle, but the story of a father and his sons at the core of this clip might leave you feeling a little misty eyed. Juan Escalante is the current owner of this Challenger, but it belonged to his dad first. Juan's father spotted the iconic muscle car during the 1969 Detroit Auto Show and had to have one. He soon placed an order for the orange '70 Challenger R/T with the rare combination for that year of a 426 Hemi V8 and a four-speed manual gearbox. The family even brought the coupe with them when they moved to Venezuela in 1972, and local fans dubbed it El Hemi. However, parts were scarce for the muscle car in that country, and it returned to the US in 1996 for a restoration. Now, the rumbling Challenger with its Coke-bottle profile and black hood is the world's most awesome family heirloom for the Escalantes. In this poignant video, Petrolicious shows how the coupe connects Juan to his father. Related Video:
Hypermiling a Ram 1500 EcoDiesel to 38.1 mpg
Fri, May 9 2014You never quite know what Wayne Gerdes has up his sleeve. The man who coined the term hypermiling is always looking for adventurous ways to prove that anyone – even you... yes, you – can eke out more miles per gallon just by changing the way you drive. Saying that is easy. Proving it by going on outlandish cross-country drives is hard. But for Gerdes and his team of fuel economy fiends over at CleanMPG, hard is half the fun. Our latest adventure appeared, at first glance, to be nearly impossible. Which is why we always answer the phone when Gerdes calls. He likes to take journalists along on his drives, not only to try teach us how to hypermile but also to prove that we can be taught. The first time I 'helped' him and his team was when we got over 30 miles per gallon in a 2011 Ford F-150 XLT with the EcoBoost 3.5-liter V6. The EPA rated that truck with at just 16 mpg in the city and 22 on the highway. So, we'll count that trip as a success. Next up was a cross-country drive last fall in a trio of Audi TDI vehicles to prove that you don't need to drive extra slow to beat the EPA numbers. In fact, we made it from Los Angeles to New York City in just over 46 hours, cramped but not cranky. We had once again proven that how you drive is hugely important to your fuel usage. Our latest adventure appeared, at first glance, to be nearly impossible. The EPA says that the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel we would be driving gets just 22 combined mpg (19 city and 27 highway). Gerdes' idea was to drive it as far north from Houston, TX towards Detroit, MI as we could go on one tank. The day before we left, our itinerary got an extra stop. Instead of taking one of the official Shell Eco-marathon prototype vehicles to Detroit, it was decided to bring the winning diesel-powered prototype from the just-finished event to The Henry Ford Museum, where it had been arranged the car would be displayed. The winning car was built by a small team (just four students) from Sullivan High School in Sullivan, IN, who managed to beat a number of college teams with a score of 1,899.32 mpg. That target would be a bit out of reach for the Ram, but could we get 1,000 miles from the tank? Since the truck has a 26 gallon tank (officially, anyway), that would mean the EPA says we could only go 702 miles, assuming all highway driving. Could we make up 300 miles with careful driving? That spells both challenge and fun.
