Car of the Week: 1969 Dodge Super Bee

[dodgechargerfan]

Sometimes a car calls out to you when you least expect it. Bill “Z” Zeromski wasn’t always a diehard MoPar man. In fact, he used to be a Ford disciple until fate intervened and a Super Bee changed him forever.

Zermonski’s Butterscotch 1969 Dodge Super Bee is the result of a car being seen at the right place, at the right time. Back in the 1960s Zermonski prowled the streets in his ’65 Mustang until he decided to trade it in on an order for a new 1968 Ford Torino.

I'm confused. Is this supposed to be a real A12 car? If so, either it's not a 3.23 or it's missing the Dana. There are no 3.23 gears for a Dana of which I'm aware. I know Ford made a 3.31 or 3.33 that was used for only 2 years in half-ton trucks (yes, they used semi-floater Dana 60s), but a 3.23 is news to me.

What are 952 heads? They must be rare... I've never heard of 'em.

The only "Scat Pack" logos on these cars were in the quarter glass. The Scat Pack bee and the Super Bee emblem are decidedly different. The Scat Pack bee is kinda gay in comparison to its model-specific brother.

I don't know if the writer doesn't know shit, or if it's the owner. You'd think someone that's had Mopars since the era would know better...

It sounds like he fell in love with an A12 back in the day but he never had the beans to buy one. So he built a clone. If it were the real mcCoy I'm sure he would brag about it. :hmmm:
