I built this one from a Monogram kit:       I kitbashed with a '69 Dart, and a couple other kits I don't remember. Heck, this was done several years ago! I built it as a replica of a friend's SuperBee, and presented this to him for his birthday. Your comments and questions are welcome! Thanks for looking! |

very nice. pretty much spot on. did you use the scoops from the 70 bee kit? is it a resin hood or did you fill that massive hole in? kudos if you did.

I must admit, I did not fill that big hole in the hood! This was a fun build for me. It's not exactly box stock. The hood and scoops came from A/FX N Scale Resin. The 383 engine is from the '68 Dart kit. I have parts from four other kits in this one, too. I scratchbuilt the vinyl top with masking tape. There are some other things that were found in the parts bin, such as the Centerline wheels and the BFG's. I lettered those tires, but that was back in the day when I had a steadier hand! HAHA Thanks for the great comments! My friend put this one on his top shelf, among a bunch of diecast construction machines he has collected. |

That's a really great looking Super Bee! Red looks better on one than I thought it would.

Thank you! I was quite pleased with how well the red matches the real one.

Great looking build. They should have included that hood alone with the six pack hood. I had to fill in the hood for mine.

A great looking build.. You definitely nailed it for sure... The greatest gift you could give us gear heads is a fine model of our 1:1 machines... Nice job!!!
