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(set aside) 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.    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. 6" X 6" area on trunk lid and a small stress crack area on upper door jamb.   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 does not have a glossy show car base coat clear coat look.   .   It has factory orange peel and factory flaws.   As you can see in the photos. the only rust issue is two very small hole approximately the size of  an eraser on a pencil right in front of the passenger side tire and a very small one behind.   These can be easily repaired.    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 .    Winning bidder will have the choice of this hood which is original to the car or a factory original non modified hood.  

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 still with the car and will be 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.   The rims and tires were a total cost of  just over $4. 00.

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 seems to slip 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 mess with this car and my father has another project car he is working on.   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 emails late each night.   Just in time for the A12 Reunion this summer at Carlisle.    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.

 I forgot to add that the headliner has three mouse holes.   One over the visor area is about as big around as a baseball.   The other two are golf ball size.
