Here's my latest I just picked up. I bought my first 69 bee in 2001 when I was 16. It was an R4, auto, N96,1 owner, rust bucket. Long story short, there wasnt a piece of metal I didn't repair or replace (pre AMD days). I ended up selling it when the metal work was complete and moving on with my Autobody career but always had a soft spot for the body style. Fast forward 11 years and I find myself the proud owner of another red 69 bee. It's a 383/column auto/3.23 8/34 car, R6 red, W1 painted roof, red bench seat interior, black stripe. Pretty basic in options especially compared to my old bee but I love odd ball color and option combos. Since the original motor and hood is gone I'm going to do a 6pak recreation. Oh yea, it's been in the same spot since 77 do all I've really gotta do is put a powertrain in it and go driving.

Sounds like a great car. Bring on the pictures

wow, that color combonation is awesome!

Wow what a great find and a build sheet too. keep us posted on your progress. Time to let it see the sunlight.

Great color combo... I'd get it together and have some fun with it.... o-ya, I'd make it a 4 speed but that's me....

Enjoy... and post some more pictures (larger ones also).

Thanks guys! Seeing as its missing it's bulge hood, and original motor I will be taking some liberties with the resto mainly creating an M code clone with a 512 6pak stoker but it'll stay an auto. I have a couple danas, one for the dart and one for the bee so I'll throw one of those in. Aside from a wood grain wheel and maybe a tic toc tach (undecided due to motor choice and cost of a restored or NOS tach) I'll most likely leave it as per the broadcast sheet. Pics I have so far are from my phone so when I get the car home and cleaned up I'll take some bigger and better pics.

WOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!! Great find.....GREAT colors!!!! There're STILL out there to be discovered!!!! Good luck, keep us posted!!!

awsome find!

Been awhile, and since the car was given to me by the inlaws, it's still on the same spot until my dart sells and I can bring it home. Since then I have the pink chally, new phone/pics and some better knowledge I posting pics

I'm turning this car into a 25.3 xtreme DR car with a low deck stoker and twin T3 turbos. Now before anyone craps their pants, this isn't a numbers cars, has been robbed of a few things, rolled over to cut out the rear end and pretty well left for dead. Yes its been inside since 77 but it is what it is. A rare color combo, no option, sales bank car with FT and BS.

I know I said I was going the 6 pak stroker route but that just seems boring now. With the pink challenger and a full out racer I have the best of both worlds.

Before I got in there to really tidy it up and put a new diff in.

Finally had that "feeling" with one of my own cars...first one I've ever had a sheet too and I got to "discover" it

Rear seat is like new. Can I throw it in a sauna to bring some life back to the vinyl? I'm worried its going to come apart after sitting so long. If not no biggie, I have to recover the front seat and need carpet.

Last one till the snow and the dart leave.

It really doesn't look terribly rusty. Just beat a lot! Cool car. '69 Bees are my first love. I just about have a deal secured on one. Sounds like it will be a sweet ride when done!
