Today, one of the retired Chrysler guys chimed-in with an email in reply to someone else going through some of his old stash of stuff - these were emblems in this case, & one of his was an old Scat Bee from a Super Bee. Here's a reply:

Super Bee, Many of us started our post grad career in 1969. Jack Smith. Father of the Roadrunner told the anecdote that as they were heading to release he asked Gene Jacoby, product planning director for Dodge, didn’t he think that Dodge needed something of equal buzz. Gene agreed and the SuperBee was born. Those were great years! All Pontiac could counter with was the “Judge”.

And yes, this is a real email reply! I have certainly never heard this one before!

Those running the stock stuff up top have little to worry about as the factory-fit pieces are of proper length, thickness, and diameter.
