In the windshield are stickers for vintage races

18 thousand miles since new... probably to and from the 1/4 mile, and lots of times down the track

1968 Shelby GT 500 KR, Nascar tunnel ram 427 side oiler. Only 900 miles on it since 1970... think investment. 13.5 to 1 compression, think 115 octane or better, expensive to get even 900 miles along.

With probably 6 or 7 miles per gallon on this dual quad gas pump, a 20 gallon tank, and around 8 bucks a gallon, I think it may be close to guess that they've only burned up about 1200 bucks in gas in 37 years. Thats 900 miles in 37 years = 24 miles a year = 4 gallons of fuel a year.

Cool speedo, love the indicator arrow design, no connection to the center pivot, and the radio still has the am stations logos on the buttons

540 horsepower, 1400 lbs. Nice.

If you catch this 56 at the lights, don't try to get a race

That's no tired old Chevy engine, its a 472 Mazzolini Racing Hemi. Stage 5, with nitrous. Beware, I warned ya.

Beautiful, very beautiful.

Race cars make me happy

Black and orange are eye catching, here's part one

Woody's other beaut

1970 AAR Cuda. Clean, rare, strong and fast. Nuff said.

Woody's 69 Super Bee, as seen in Hemmings Muscle Machines

http://www.hemmings.com/subscribe/current_issue.html?publication=MUS ran a feature on Woody's Super Bee, which was very cool... it centered the issue on the theme of survivor cars, those that are original, and still owned by the first purchaser... never been sold to a second owner.

This car was well written about by Jeff Koch, if I recall right, and he is a really good writer... doesn't bore you with the makers history, specs, all the stuff you already know about a make and model, he goes more for the owners memories of the car... why this type, what's occured with it, why it's still in the original owners hands. That's the type of article I love to read, more than the business decisions that brought about the size, weight, and design.

Anyway, I've talked on a couple of occasions to Woody or his dad Bill about this Super Bee. I had a 69 Super Bee too. .. it can really be informative to talk to other owners of the same make and model and find out what they've experienced mechanically, and where they've brought things to get repaired.. ' cause it'll be the things you'll do too... and the recommendations are priceless.

If you have back issues, or friends that do.. it's in the Oct 2006 issue of Hemmings Muscle Machines (#37) pages 32 through 37.

So anyway, this has the 383 4 barrel, and power bulge hood, and the optional bumper guards. Everything is still original that you'll see, paint, chrome, rims, and the 73 thousand miles or so. Nice; all over, under, and inside.
