Saw its bare shell in some background footage, and a clip of its owner saying he wanted something that hasn't been done before...
So I'm almost afraid to look.
But I'll guess: steamroller tires on huge-diameter rims, Kindig door handles, tucked-in bumpers, Gen-3 swap, full frame swap, and something weird with the hood.

Do you think it might be '69.5 "SIX PACKish"?

What would be nice is a carbon fiber A12 hood (not painted but carbon fiber) with the fender tops with matching carbon fiber and the cowl to the windshield in matching carbon fiber. And carbon fiber side scoops. Could even do the top of the trunk lid in matching carbon fiber? Here's a stretch, the roof done in carbon fiber like a vinyl roof too.

Very cool A12 carbon fiber ideas!I saw Dave tell the owner...You don't want a motor coming out of the hood.
Lol like some other cars he built...

I'm just not a custom guy. I watch Bitchin' Rides for the process and techniques used but I wouldn't drive one of his cars if he gave it to me.

There are some cars you can-not! make better. But in general most people don't own mopars we have to remember it is a GM/ Ford world out there.

He's a very talented and skilled builder/fabricator, but aside for the quality of workmanship, there's not a single thing I like about his work.

Like I said the nicest mopar they did was the 30s dodge sedan..the 67 charger they should've just done the back end and motor should've left the front alone.The 71 challenger not great and the graphics sucked,I can't stop beating on the kevin hart challenger!LolIts like the mopars are always a afterthought.They turn other cars into works of functional art and mopars mehh...I wanted to loose it when they did that lime green pantera until I saw it at the end(yes I'm a closet De Tomaso Pantera fan,and yes I bought thier shirt,and have dethomaso collectables.Any was the mopar world doesn't get much respect from these type of shows which is sad hopefully the superbee will turn out great!Iron Resurrection is back on Jan 2nd hopefully they'll actually work on a muscle car era mopar.

The '69 Super Bee is my favorite Mopar by a long shot. Just don't put those stupid side scoops on it!

Hopefully it doesn't end up like the Coronet they did a few years ago.
It's a fun show to watch....entertaining without being overtly goofy like some of the others...and there is obvious talent working within the walls of his shop.
But of all the episodes I've seen, only a handful of those cars are something I would take pride in owning....assuming I could afford them in the first place.

For my tastes, its engineering based on what can be bolted on, and the main work is achieving a "look", I prefer it reversed.

I can't watch it because that stupid egyptian beard on Dave's face!
My thoughts, OH NO! They are going to ruin a mopar.

My opinion?…… I think it’ll end up like the blue Coronet

Not a fan of the show or the builds. There's talent on display, but I can't take Kevin or K dog or whatever this 40-something year old man is, and acting 14.
I've really gotten into "Texas Metal". Not a fan of the builds here either but so many talented metal guys and Bill seems cool, and seems to be a family guy and I don't have to deal with dipsticks and stupid drama.
