The Dodge Super Bee is a mid-sized muscle car marketed by Dodge, that was produced for the 1968 through 1971 model years.[1]
In Mexico, the Super Bee was based on a compact-sized Chrysler platform and marketed from 1970 until 1980.
The Super Bee model name was resurrected for the 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012, and 2013 Dodge Charger Super Bee models.[2][3][4]

The original Dodge Super Bee was based on the Dodge Coronet two-door coupe, and was produced from 1968 until 1970.[5] It was Dodge's low-priced muscle car and rebranded and mildly distinguished from the Plymouth Road Runner. The origin of the name, "Super Bee", has its basis in the "B" Body designation pertinent to Chrysler's mid-sized cars, including the Road Runner and Charger.
For the 1970 model, the Super Bee received a redesign and a new front-end that consisted of a twin-looped front bumper that Dodge Public Relations referred to as "bumble bee wings".[19] Sales fell for the year from 15,506 in 1970 to 5,054 in 1971-because of, or in spite of, this new look, with another sales pressure coming from higher insurance rates for performance cars; the similar Plymouth Road Runner and Plymouth Duster both experienced similar sales issues.[12] In addition to the new looks, engine choices and "ramcharger" hood carried over from 1969, the 1970 cars from Dodge featured several new or improved options. For example, a "C- stripe" variant of the bumble stripe was offered, in addition to new high-back bucket seats, a steering column-mounted ignition and a "pistol grip" Hurst shifter on four-speed models.[citation needed]

A thing of Beauty ! You did a Legend a solid with this one.
I watch your videos to see how the kit assembles and if you had issues and tips. You always say to build it how you like it! If someone is going to "yell at the screen" due to lack of accuracy of realism, then they need to relax and realize this hobby is supposed to be fun! Thank you!
It’s a MoPar guy thing lol they like it to be precise
WoW !....What a Ride...I want !
Awesome build!!
This is my dream car just my dream color was plum crazy purple with a white interior
The paint turned out super smooth and looks perfect! Great build and thanks for the tips over the years!
My late grandfather had a Coronet in that shade of blue. I recall that he also had one later in metallic red, but that may be wrong. It did have a 440 and it was pre-1970. I loved his car!
Another great looking kit for sure.. And, I can't believe they have the "flower power" option on the decal sheet...!!!! Amazing attention to past details..!!!
I liked the year your builts and videos are great 👍
Great job as usual Chris,love the color of outside
Great color on this car.
First one I saw on dealer lot in late '69 was orange, I might be forced to build two colors of this kit now! 😉
Well Chris, you've done it again! Your build & presentation have forced me to buy another kit 😅! Excellence, great color choices 👌!
Used to buy and build lots of mpc kits when I was growing up in the late 70's early 80's never ever disappointed with them!
one of my favourite mopars!
Exactly
Hood ain't sittin' right. You'd think for the money they'd have this injection molding down by now. Killer job, love the subtle blue on blue. 👀
Glad to see this coming back out....the '70 Coronet is my absolute favorite car of the Muscle Car Era
Love the Mopars, cool kit!!!!!!! 👍👍
This kit is great. The chassis, with little modification, can easily go under less detailed 1/25 scale Mopar kits. I wish they would do a 4 door version of this and the Road Runner to make police car modelers happy.
Coronet and satellites that would be cool to have some police interceptors of them
I love this car. Probably my favorite model from this video!!
Love Mopar Hemi CARS..🤗🤗😍
Hey Chris,those extra parts are from the pro street kit good job👍
Super rare cars today.
You really knocked it out of the park this time Chris. That Super Bee looks spectacular. I can't wait to buy one.
Thank you!
Great video Chris keep em coming I'll keep watching
Awesome Super Bee Chris! Thanks for sharing!
This is my favorite SUPER Bee 🐝 YOUR builds & videos are the best . I enjoy them very much. 😊👍😎Keep up the great work 👍 👏
A plain Coronet would be neat too.
I am sure they made a "pro-street" version of this in the 90's, molded in brown plastic with big tires in the back. Love the video and great review, keep it up.
Excellent build as always. This seems to be a very nice kit. It’s great that Round 2 branded this one as a MPC kit. This one will only help MPC’s reputation. Thanks for sharing.
I was thinking it looked more like an amt kit than mpc
@@krazi77 You are right it does look much more like an AMT kit.
When this kit first came out the body and interior were from the original mpc molds and the chassis and under hood area and engine were new tooling taken from the 68/9 roadrunner kits amt made
Thank you for your channel. I have learned a lot from your videos. keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching!
Cool as always.
Excellent job!!
Awesome build.
another gorgeous build, AND amt even though mpc,, killed it on this one, amt and mpc share the parts included in this kit in many instances
Great build as always, very sharp looking super bee 😊❤️👍
Great work from one Wisconsinite to another!
In 1976 I bought a used 1970 Dodge Monaco 2 door and it had the 440 but not a six pack. It was a mint metallic green, it was awesome in the sun light and boy did she fly when you mashed that 4 barrel to the floor. Wish they made a model of it... Lol
Thanks for the video! May have to get one, I look at it on line several times. I remember $2.00 models and now there $30... So sad... 😢
LLAP 🖖
Dynamite 'Bee, *Chris* ! Good call on the *V6B* stripes ; *V6G* definitely would be interesting with blue (esp. since Chrysler's *E* B5 has green undertones to it).
You are correct regarding the two different dash/instrument options; the "bar" speedometer is standard fare, with the Charger gauges being an option.
I can't wait to get a few copies of this newer release (I have the c.2009 issue, plus the *DOHC* 426 Hemi from the Pro Street version). The tyres and the decals are *awesome* in this release !
Keep up the great and fun work, Chris !
Wow Mr Steady Hand,what a great build like usual,very ,very excellent job ,👍🏻👍🏻 2 thumbs up
I like the interior color an the motors looks fantastic another great cris build keep them coming 👍👍😎
440 SIX PACK - Great choice! And, you even fixed the throttle linkage on the center carb - WOW - nice detailing (middle carb on that Six Pack option would stick if not modified). With under hood near perfection, you went on to build the rest of the car to match. Another fun build and one more reason to always watch hpiguys Workshop.
Thanks RA!
NICE! 👍♥️
Absolutely GORGEOUS, have the dirty donny car, used the wheel tub setup on another mopar, been farming parts up to build it close to stock for a a while now, now, here it is and i can have one of my favorito mopars, always looked like it was wearing period correct glasses with those big old ribbon grilles! Thank you for the review, the car looks lovely!
Oh, by the way, those are amt common parts, you probably have the rest of the parts to build some serious hemi's chris, i know that one or more kits you've reviewed have those parts, usually any with that floorpan and frame, some of which contain rim backers to make fattys for dragging, and usually with a narrowed rear, just no tubbed frame,
Nicely done I will build my super bee both ways I bought 2 of those kits I enjoy watching your video's I just got back into building models alot of great tips thanks it's a fun hobby
Good looking car - fine build as always. Thanks for all your tips.
Love the color combo!!!
Nice build Chris came out wonderful 👍👍
I really like car kits like this with the engine options and the inticate steering and suspension builds. They're much more detailed and realistic looking than the molded-in stuff. Really nice job with that. It's tricky sometimes. The finished product looks spectacular. Tempting me once again....
Really great build up Chris
If I could have my choice of a Mopar it would be this or the 70 GTX. Love these body styles. When I see multiple color decals I see the need to get multiple kits.
Nice looking build sir!
Nice build Chris!
This kit actually shares a lot of parts with the '68/'69 Roadrunner/GTX kits from AMT. They're great kits to build so I'll definitely be getting this one too!
Outstanding craftsmanship and tutorial as always Chris! Rock on Brother!
Btw nice color
Love those scoops but the picklefork hood rocks.
WOW! An MPC kit that doesn't have a ton of flash! I might have to check this one out!
Love that two engine surprise - can always find an after market distributor and a 1/25 scale coil is so easy to make.
That looks like a decent kit, ( for an MPC kit ). I’ll have to build one👍
I'm kinda happy. I was thumbs-up # 440! Although I don't have a six pack. (More like a pony keg!) 😁 Beauty color on this. Well done!
Nice build and great color choices. I'm doing the same kit. However, I'm using a resin Hellcat Hemi. Keep up the nice videos and new kit previews.
Looks good! Thanks! Please refresh my memory on which exact silver marker you use. I don't want to buy the wrong one. Thanks again!
Yeah, this kit is pretty cool. I have the previous release (released 'round 2018-2020) and I hope I have all the extra parts in it. Wouldn't mind a 426 Bee. Only thing they could do to improve this kit, is to make a new grill with transparent headlights.
That blue is really gorgeous and pretty close to one of the met. Blue that Chrysler offered. I mean, I saw a Coronot (base, not Superbee) in a blue that is REALLY similar to the one you used.
Why would MPC emphasize the ‘washer reservoir’ among the features on the side of the box? Weird…
Back in the time when these were molded, many kits didnt have a lot of those "small details" included, and they simply noted that, back then, commonsense would have suggested to the person buying this kit at the time, that since it had nitnoid little details like this, it might have a lot more, and this kit does, it has the parts, minus floorpan and some chrome, most of the parts from the dirty donny drag car, where this car was wheel tubbed, with a hemi, two choices of dashes R/T or stock plymouth sattelite dash, there were pieces missing that didnt allow stock build on dirty donny car, and vice versa, you cant quite build this as a drag car right outta the box, sorry, a little long winded, but that is why that washer bottle is shown
Dodge/Plymouth Rallye wheels make a ton of difference on this car, come on Round2, you can do it!
Need to get two one for a base coronet hemi and one as super bee 440-6 pack.
Wow where did you find Model Master at? That paint was the best for models!
Nice 😅
Those are parts for the tubbed pro street and Plymouth GTX versions
One Air Grabber fits the Hemi and the other for the 440. They may look similar, but in 1:1 they’re different.
Great video as always, Chris! The two dashes represent the standard Super Bee dash and the Rallye Dash (with the round gauges) both of which I believe are correct. The higher, rounded manifolds for the 440 are the standard Magnum manifolds.
Thanks for the tip!
I like the 383
awesome build as alway, could you tell me what glue you use. I've tried several but pieces still break off easy Thanks for the vids really enjoy
Ditto.
Plastruct Bondene is my personal choice.
@@hpiguy thank you Chris
@@hpiguy thank you
Great build! How much body prep do you do before you prime and paint? Do you sand the body seams at all, or do you just go straight to prime and paint? I like the fact you use alot of the regular acrylic craft paint and brush, not too much masking involved.
Been following your builds for a while, I’ve never seen the joining of parts with glue AFTER painting. Only on parts out of the box. Is this not important? Never mind my idiocy……. SUPER GLUE is the answer, my bad. Love your great videos. :0(
My friend had a 69 Coronet that was just about the same color.
Chris, what brand is your turn table you use for your end of episode display? And where can I get one, it’s plain and simple, thanks
enjoyed the build--ust wondering---if I remember correctly the body and interior tub is from the original edition and the frame and running gear is from the new road runner and gtx kits---I seem to remember when I built the kits I had to sand on the bottom of the interior tub to get things to fit correctly----I may be thinking of another kit as my "old mans" mind tends to forget things and confuse things----I may be thinking of the pro street kit---anyway ---just wondering
Your guess is as good as mine my friend. I just build them but I'm positive other modelers will know every bit of history on this kit and help your memory out.
@@hpiguy as I said----not sure if this was the kit or not-----just remember there was one kit that I had to sand on the interior pan and chassis to get a good fit---although it could possibly have been something I did that caused the problem----as I said my "old mans" mind sometimes plays tricks on me---anyway----keep up the builds---looking forward to the future ones
The factory stock version like this one came out in late 1993, Early 1994, The kit was the MPC body, bumpers and interior parts, the rest was the AMT tooled 1989-90 era '68 Road Runner chassis, sort of a combination of both kits, the hood was retooled also, the original version had the pitchfork hood in it, the 1970 MPC annual release of the '70 Coronet. Hope this helps. Stephen.
Is this kit at all related to the 1970 tooling also from MPC?
I only bought this kit because it has an authentic washer reservoir according to the box
That's cool...how long does it take for the quick shine to dry after you use it
Few hours at most
Curious what color blue you use on the body? It didn’t say
That's some quick setting glue. What is it?
I like Plastruct Bondene, modelroundup.com sells it
@@hpiguy
Good to know. It bonded within seconds after you brushed it on. 👍
Is this the famous Super Bee? According to what I saw in the book, it was said that the performance was very good, but it was a car that did not sell well because of the high price, but I do not know if it is true.
It was the look of the car. People either loved it or hated it
The front end treatment was a bit radical for some folks but personally I love it!
It was iconic when it was a 66-67 GTO
What kind of glue are you using?
Plastruct Bondene
i really don't inderstand why you paint black instead to paint the light colors right away ??🤔🙂
It's called pre-shading. It gives the overcoat depth and layers without having to go thru the process of running a black wash or other shading later.
Extremely common in military models, and I adapted it for my car models as it works very well.
WHAT? is with those bumps on the scoops.. Not being negative but they distract... (had to ask)
Yes ... I haven't seen those in real life either. I would remove them.
I thought maybe they were turn signal indicators? So I left them. Maybe they were on whatever car they copied for the model molds way back when the kit was created?
The instructions are still wrong in regards to the wiper motor. You used the Roadrunner horn for the wiper motor. There is a wiper motor, but the part number is not listed on the instructions. This has been a sore spot for years! Otherwise, a great build from you!
