1971 DODGE SUPER BEE TX9 STRIPE DELETE, 4-Speed

Jim Bruzzese

I bought this 1971 TX9 440 Charger Super Bee in January of 2002. Muscle cars were really starting to buzz. I had a 1973 400/4spd LE5 Roadrunner and a 1973 B5 Blue Cuda that had a (nom) 440 with a 4 spd, also had a 429 1970 Torino Cobra 4spd but nothing to me is 1971-that year was the PINNACLE of the MUSCLE CAR ERA after that the Hemi was gone, 6 Pak, the cars really were'nt the same anymore, at least Chrysler did'nt really make major body changes until 1975, GM changed in 1973. Ugly.

I always liked Charger *B* bodies and also had the insite to know that being a one year only Super Bee that these cars will get their claim to fame one day and I think its here. I had my car restored, luckily it was an easy one as the car was not in bad shape to start with. I attained NOS parts like original chrome bumbers because it was'nt a factory Elastomeric car. It has the V68 stripe delete option, N96 RamchargerHood, in dash tach, buckets no console, hood lock downs,RT appearance package with RT front grills and rear tail lights and no vinyl roof. Painted in TX9 PPG base clear coat 2 stage and buffed to perfection.
