- Hot Rod Editor In Chief David Freiburger has owned this 1970Dodge Super Bee since he was 15 years old. In 1995, it was restored indrag-race trim and loaded with a Dick Landy 484ci Hemi. Then it satuntouched until 2010, when Hot Rod decided to rework it as a street car. Inthis video, the guys thrash to get it on the road at the last minute forMopars at the Strip, then drive the car from Los Angeles to Las Vegas anddrag race it.

Been following David frieburger since back n the day when he was doing carcraft he's the best
I love how in the beginning when Finnegan dropped that bolt all of you stopped smiling and was listening, hoping that it would hit the ground and not get stuck somewhere!! haha
WHAT A CAR! I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I SAW ONE... COULDN'T BELIEVE IT! TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
lol i just watch all the roadkill episode and got sad then i ran into this ... yay it continues
same
RepGaming when you watch all the episodes start over and watch them all again!
Finnegan's Garage...it starts out kind of simple and short, just Mike showing you little tips and tricks, then it eventually turns out a lot like Roadkill in content. 45-55 minute videos with vehicles that break down, zip tie repairs, and other sketchy goodness that eventually result in burnouts.
These classic muscle cars stand out among today's traffic, they are the among the coolest cars on the road.
I love reruns. Haven't seen this one in 12 years. 😀
that mat black hood and hood scoop looks so badass.
ran outta roadkill
me too...
Same. And I’m not dumb enough to pay for motor trend on demand
Michael caplinger I
Michael caplinger same but you can get a free trial for the motor trend app and they have a couple more episodes and the ones not on youtube, and another version of roadkill with Steve Dulcich, and just about all car shows imaginable. It's a free trial give it a shot I just did and it was worth it, I'd pay the $5 a month if I didn't already finish all the episodes of roadkill and hot rod garage and the roadkill garage with Dulcich lol I still got like 3 days left on it too gnna finish it off and see if there's any other good shows and maybe I'll pay the $5 for a month
Way cooler than anything Lamborghini or Ferrari or Bugatti or Mclaren has ever made.
No matter what that is a nice car. Very ownable .
If you guys ever do read this you're the best of the best. I an thirteen years old and last summer I bought a 1981 Pontiac firebird trans am. The turbo trans am model. Rewind a little bit, in January my great uncle died. I hadn't ever met him before. My dad talked to him a week before his death about his 6.0 Ford truck. He had foot surgery and he had a heart attack from blood blockage at age 75. There was no warning so he still had a shop and a 200 foot long potato cellar full of tractors and 80's trucks and cars that are of no worth. We went to Idaho for a family reunion and we stayed at her house. At the time my dad was looking for a small tractor for your yard. We started looking around their property and we entered the pitch black potato cellar. I saw a huge case tractor and a bulldozer behind it. On the right side there were motors and transmissions and a bunch of treasures. There were RVs and trailers and 80's cars and trucks but nothing of my interest. I made a saying that says "you can't be a true farmer without one cool car", well I found that 1 cool car. behind a red early 90's Ford truck a grey Pontiac trans am say right there. I yelled to my dad, "it's a trans am." we came back inside and I told my great aunt, "if you ever go to sell it let me know". She said that other grand kids had expressed interest. She said that she'll ask them about it and tell me if I could be eligible to buy it. So I see it one more time for a month and that is all I can think about for a month. It was torture. I come home from school one day and my dad says "do you want to buy a trans am?" I yell yeah. He says I can buy it for $400 bucks. I tell him that it's sold. I do everything with in my power to get $400 we drive up and I see the car and boy you could tell that it hasn't seen daylight in a while. I look inside and see that the seats and the dash are in perfect condition. We go in to talk and I look at my title and look at the print date and it says 1992. It sat inside for 27 years. It has barley any surface rust and 99,232 miles on it. Still less than 100,000! We towed it home and I would look at people passing and each one would be looking at my car. We got it home and I cleaned it out and my dad and I just recently got the motor out. It will eventually have an ls2 in its place.
Scary to think how many cool cars are sitting around for years without seeing the light of day. Nice video!
TY for all you do, MIKE, DAVE and all the people behind the scenes.
Good to see a classic Mopar build - very refreshing. Go Dave!
that car is so beautiful
Back when this was fun to watch.
I have a 1976 440 that I'm ready drop in a car when I can find one. Sweet, clean, and low mileage. Hell yeah man.
Love the look and feel of old school muscle cars.
But, I'm also very glad for new school muscle car reliability & performance in my Redeye challenger.😎👍
I remember this car driving around Glendale and Burbank back in the '80s. Good to see it back on the road again.
These older episodes were so much more relaxed and not so up tight trying to please everybody. Definitely more entertaining!
I saw one of those once.

It was fading from view in my Mustang's rear view mirror. ;)
what a great looking car!
My 14th kid was made in the back seat of a 70 super bee!!!!
Please never kill road kill, best car show ever! I am a car guy and get board fast with most so called car shows, you guys are the best!
No other car shouts 'musclecar' like a Super Bee, they're just so absolutely 'right'.
I think you mean no other car says muscle car better than a 69 charger.
@@chrisfuller3151 the super Bee was a much better muscle car than a Big heavy charger a Big Boat
Chad Robinson you do know they’re both the same size right?
@@chrisfuller3151 '70 Super Bees are certainly awesome cars, but the ultimate muscle car, in my humble (and admittedly biased) opinion, is the '69 Charger.
David Freiburgers Dodge Superbee, can pass anything apart from a petrol station. Looks like some serious fun, that makes everything brilliant.
i was there for that snow. we get snow in Vegas on occasion but not usually in March, lol. we stood under the stands to wait it out.
wow the origins of roadkill! ;)
I'm not a big chrysler fan but this old stuff always gets me.
These videos are fun to watch. I don't even particularly like hotrods, but it's nice to see people doing what they like to do.
very nie video. watched the whole thing over dinner. Very enjoyable. I wish i had a car like yours...
I LOVE THE WAY THE SUPER BEE LOOKS FROM THE BACK ,SHOWING THE DANA 60. IT JUST LOOKS MEAN AS HELL. IHAD 2 MOPARS WITH DANA 60,1968 GTX,1964 DODGE POLARA. THE DANA JUST LOOKS REAL MEAN. WHAT DO YOU THINK, MIKE ELCAMINO.
i know this is old but i have a b-body 496 Chevy with a Dana S-60 4:56 for going to work and stuff. you do know big Chevy's can put on Hemi head's also right? it's not a dodge thing only. take a wild guess who patterned also your auto tran's that you think is a dodge. no i never had a Elco or rancher but i like them also. i hope Michael can live with the fact and opinion if i can say i have a 69 4 speed Cuda with a d-60 in it. yeh i am also one of the non haters of the SuperBee styling that year. just for your entertainment , translate my last name from french. guess why i like Bee's? and if you are a freaky o.e. terrorist, i plan to paint it yellow and double strip it's rear to boot , but with only one circled S.Bee. maybe i will call it the WanaBee with the non O.E. but needed D or S-60,trans, engine kit or build. still wrestling with the, know where to get 2 A.M.X. 343 4 speed part's cars to make one right now. north american or Cuban style hot rodding works for me.
This is my dream car
Just like Roadkill! Thank you CZcams for finally suggesting this video...
roadkill before roadkill was roadkill
I remember watching this when it premiered I was 16. Damn that was a while ago
got such a burst of nostalgia for some reason when he threw on the 2012 tabs and said "we're legal!"
Amazing looking car. God I love it.
What an amazing piece of machinery. OMG. I am a ford guy forever, with only one exception, well two, a 76 barracuda, and anything with the word 'bee' in it.
Nice ride.
Typo, there is no 76 barracuda.
holy shit those Mopars look super clean
one of my first issues of hot rod magazine i've encountered as a freshman in high school had the rumble bee which is this car. i remember reading about it and seeing pictures of them lowering the elephant into the beauty. brought back memories. thanks.
The transmission set up for 10yrs bro, wow all the fluid was still in the bottom of the pan when you took off but man y'll got that bad boy hitting no doubt!!!
thats a sick number plate
Holy crap! 11.5 mpg out of a 484 Hemi. My '70 Challenger R/T with a stock 383 only gets 12!
I was 10 years old in 1992. It was just sitting there at the gas station. It was a yellow 70 SB 440.... changed my life. This guy in the video needs the right hood.
Thats what i call REAL CARS
It's fun to watch this two guys doing all this cool things.
I know David, nice guy. Worked with him at Jacobs Electronics in L.A. back in '84. We used to dare each other to buy yet another round of "death burrito's" from up the street on a weekly basis. I had a 'Cosworth Twin-Cam Vega' back then - At one point I was interested in his 'Bee' and asked how much he'd sell it for. 3K was his price. For whatever reason I passed. Great to see you're doing well, David. Nice car - Nice job.
Thumbs up, shame about the transmission, but that still has to be an all time dream car. :)
Roadkill b4 roadkill love it they're a fn hit in my book
i remember, had to be 1996, seeing this beauty in my hot rod issue. glad to see it back.
This is my number 1 dream car but a plum crazy 440 six pack car
Beautiful Super Bee, looks like one hell of a fun road trip.
David Freiburger is soooooooo damn awesome! You Rock Dude! HotRod
Pretty thrilled to find Hot Rod has so many videos uploaded.
The coronet looks beautiful, good job guys.
Got to love their attitude when firing up that cold beast!
Awesome video!!! Costs alot of money but hot rod road trippin' is the best!!! Last year, my wife and I drove from Troy, Montana to Minneapolis for the back to the 50's car show in her 1942 Ford business coupe. Had a blast!!! P.S. Love the Super Bee!!! The first car I ever drove was a '70 Super Bee when I was about five sitting on my older brothers lap. It was Plumb Crazy with a 318 and a 4 speed. It went bye bye when a tree fell across it one night. RIP.
Richard Johnson is Smiling, David...
Check out that big line of Dakota R/T's at 7:52! Props to those guys for representing the little truck that thinks it's a Challenger.
I remember when this car was a feature in Car Craft some years back when Dave was there. It was a great read, And they did a lot of quality work on this car. Hope to see it again soon.
Watching your show really really get me fired up to finish my project. Keep up the awesome work guys best car show getting around...
9:35 that '60s Dodge A100 is so cool!
Nice Super Bee, I love it. Great job and thanks for sharing.
@jbsjunk No shakedown. It had not run since '99, and we jammed to get it running in about a week with a fresh engine, trans, rearend, fuel system, oil system, and a few suspension parts. Drove it around the block three times at midnight, then hit the road for Las Vegas.
I think every man on the planet including myself would have no problem getting paid to do what these lucky guys do.
congrats dudes building a awesome super bee... well done
My dream mopar
What's up FREIBURGER!! Glad 2 see ya finally got it done!!!
That’s a freaking gorgeous car
They all look sooo young here, even though it was only five years ago.
great story, video and editing, keep them coming, waiting to see part 2
So what's your thoughts on roadkill
i know Im asking randomly but does anybody know of a tool to get back into an instagram account??
I somehow forgot my account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me
@Jakob Braylen instablaster :)
@Aiden Camden thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out atm.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Aiden Camden It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much, you really help me out :D
AWESOME !
I extremely like the fact of your video!!! Have a great time when life isn't perfect! But having one of those dream jobs and being loved by the Hot Rod Bars and unknown friends shows your doing fine!!!
"Drag strips aren't supposed to have 1,000 foot marks" So true...lol Car looks great...
this thing have such awesome stance going down the road loveeee it
sweet super bee
"Maybe he pussed out" I can't stop laughing at that. Nice work on the video keep them coming.
When I was a kid there was this guy on our block that bought a Super Bee. It was bright orange & everyone loved. About two months after he bought it he wrapped it around a culvert with his fiance & three other good friends who we all knew. He & she were the only ones that lived. It was tragic. That will always be my Super Bee memory. It happened all the time back then with 17 year old kids driving way to much car. Be careful out there people.
what a beautiful car
One day I would love to cruise with him with "Coupezilla"! That would be so damn awesome.
Guys, you are fun to watch. Nice footage!
So much win on that demon in the background.
Absolutely awesome video!! Loved the car and you guys are real funny, I laughed my head off. Cheers, Jeff from NZ
Awesome car big block
-IT'S ALIVE! ALLIIIIIIVEEEEEE!!!
let's talk about the aluminum paste that some how collected on a magnet....
Must be some steel swarf mixed in.
My exact thoughts,, lol.
@@gollypo448 i must have some of that fried burger's Superbee trans alumaswarfteel sludge compound for hardened valve, grinding purposes.
I dig this video! Well done and kept me watching to see the outcome...nice job guys. Would love to have you give my super bee a once over after it arrives!
Damn 2:12 that ford pickup is kick ass!
Beautiful Car. My dream car to restore is a early 1970s Challenger R/T.
OMG! Beautiful car!
Awesome ride man!
ok,this my 3rd time watchin this...nice job guys
Superb B
Fuck, i love every freaking mopar!!
How good they don't use the "old film" effect no more. Thank you editor.
Grew up in a 1970 Charger 383 Magnum. Black On Black !
I love it! This is how hot rodin goes. I just changed springs in the front of my 73 TA twice tonite to no avail. Threw out my original set (front, like a dumbass) got a pair from PST and it sits like a strait axle car with one side exceptionaly high. changed sides and the oppost side raised higher than the other. I'll get it though and that's what everyone has to keep in mind. I had cam bearing issues, an old builder gave me advice but not an ans. then I tracked it dwn and won't forget. Remember
I love this car!
This is like RoadKill but kinda different, i like it
