The bee graphic on the side of the scoop is a cool detail, this car rocks
As a kid back in 1974, my buddies parents had this exact car. Same color, same interior. He always stated that it was a special car and I find myself thinking about that car years later. It's nice to see the video on it here!
Absolutely stunning. The color and graphics on this bee are spot on and gorgeous.....so amazing! Now I have to go change my underwear...wheew !
You could also get the 440 six pack in 1971 in the Charger Super Bee. I had one and it was a great car.
Great looking Charger!!👍👍
That trunk is not only big enough to haul your groceries, it looks clean enough to eat them too. Nice car, and very rare indeed. Thank you for sharing ~ Chuck
I used to haul my drums in my '74 SE - bass drum in the back seat.
Mother had a 71 Dodge Charger with the 440 in n it. Black on black. It was bought cheap in a car lot in the 80s.
Love your expertise on mopars. I owned many mopars in the 70's. My dad bought a basic 70 Roadrunner 383 3 speed standard transmission. Lemon twist yellow. Dog dish hubcaps for $2,495 at Rosenstock Chrysler Plymouth in Houston Texas.
My buddy had a 72 340 4 speed car . Would love to own this one
In 1982 I purchased a blue one 383 4 speed air grabber hood for 700 bucks. Those were the days
Steve, as an owner of a 71 Superbee I go along with really liking the styling of the 71. I like the clean flowing overall look.
I painted my friend's 71 roadrunner black metallic imron.(383 4sp.) in my backyard , immaculate.
One of your best! A superb mix of oral delivery, car matter and factual knowledge.
Yes, he's very eloquent n knowledgeable.
Would luuuv this car. 383 4 speed is an awesome combo.
I had a 71 satalite and a 71 cuda, I sold the cuda in 77 for 500 bucks in good shape, you couldn't give these cars away back then.
The Superbee decal and badge is figgin awesome! Coolest car logo to come out of the late sixties and a great one-up on the Roadrunner cartoon.
Air grabber is one of the coolest options ever.
I have worked on old cars my entire life since the 60's and I still learn something on every one of Steve's videos, this and junkyard crawl are my favorite two channels
Nice job!!! Haven't seen a video in weeks
I've always loved this body style
Nice. Glad to see that one has an actual carburetor instead of a computer.
Thank you Steve!👍
With the VIN, we win:
W for Charger, M for Medium price class, 23 for two door hardtop, N for 383 V8 with four barrel, high performance, 1 for 1971 model year, A for Lynch Road, Detroit, MI assembly and the rest is the production sequence. The Lynch Road facility closed in April 1981 and a powder coating business is on that property now.
With the tag, we can brag: G11 for tinted glass, all windows, P31 for power windows, V1W for White full vinyl top, U for USA spec vehicle, FE5 for Bright Red exterior paint, TX9 for black interior trim, N96 for fresh air hood, 215 for Monday February 15, 1971 production/scheduling, E65 for 383 V8 with four barrel, high performance, 300 HP, D21 for four speed manual transmission, among other codes.
That ring terminal/battery cable set up has to go. It looks hokey and backyard installed. It has no place on a "restored car".
Also I believe electronic ignition wasn't available in '71. That looks like an add on
1972 rings a bell as the first year for that.
The 71 Superbee also came with a large hood insert with engine displacement emblems. I owned a 71 3 speed standard transmission with the 383 magnum.
When yhe mopars were built back.then tons of character and charm now..blaa
Now that’s a rare bird
Not a roadrunner
@Roadrunner James this is better looking
Your videos are great! So knowledgeable and your delivery is sublime.
Thank you!
I took my driving test in a 71 charger
Lol took my drivers test during a snow storm in a 72 Charger 440 with big L60s out back. I didn't pass due to me fish tailing around. Eventually I passed.
Beautiful car Steve, enjoyed
Very, very nice indeed!
Gorgeous car!
I subbed about 4 seconds in to the video
Sorry Steve your wrong, 71 383 300hp and electronic ignition available starting in 72. Thats an add on.
Awesome 👌
Love it!
Super Sport Steve!!!!!
Good job
Let’s see the 71 TRANS AM !
The stock ‘71 Bee hood was quite distinct and couldn’t be mistaken. It has an insert on the bubble with ridges and 383 Magnum badging on both side of the insert as opposed to all 71 Chargers which are all on the sides of the power bulge hood. Dodge had many gorgeous hoods and I wish this car had that but I realize a lot of people like the air grabber.
I gotta get some scratch tickets today.
Not quite 330HP in '71 as the 383 compression ratio was reduced to 8.5-1...down to 300HP (SAE gross).
Oof!
8.5:1CR.....
that's less than you run on a full bogey turbo motor!
Plus, to reduce the CR most of the OEMs put the pistons way down in the cylinder so ...
NO quench = detonation.
Even on a low compression engine.
Yes sur your right..the giverment steped in and detuned all the grate moters to bad
Improvement on the 68-70???!!! WHAT 😳😳😳??!!
nice...very nice
Love them chargers
Cute Snail graphic on the Air-Grabber.😉 Actually pretty-neat cars. We restored a '71 R/T Hemi-Charger some years back. An original Mr. Norms Grand Spaulding Dodge car. Large and Plum Crazy. We of course dubbed it "Barney."

I found the clapped out sister to this car on a buy here pay here lot back in around '85. It was more worn out than a hooker on a troop ship, but it was a real 383 4 spd car with the Ramcharger hood that was intact. The interior was trashed and it had cut pile carpet that looked like it came out of your great aunt's house in 1974. The orange paint had turned to Tang mix, and the vinyl top was shredded.
They wanted $950 for it , and I never liked the '71 and up charger enough to buy it. About a month later I bought a '71 Satellite with a 318 auto for $200. Plymouth did a way better job with the styling on their fuselage B bodies IMO, like the '72-'74 E bodies. One thing I'll never forget about that Super Bee was that there had to have been 2 feet of dead space between the radiator and the grille.
Sweet I had a 72 charger 440 magnum
Nice Charger !!!
It's got a 73/74 rear valance.
So many of these beautiful Mopars got thrashed by baby boomers who believed these cars would only improve on into the 1970's. NOT so! 50 years ago, this month the great oil embargo by OPEC hit the states and that was the end of the golden musclecar era. Today, any surviving muscle cars are worth a fortune... especially the huge big block engines. Some are well into 6 figures and the cream of the crop are now 7 figures.😮
I have the same car, but mine is an automatic, in Citron Yella. And it has the Gull Wing rear spoiler.
Kidd I grew up with had a 440 six pack
Yes, I had one as well, back in the mid 1970's. Sold it in the late 1980's. Fast car.
I realy loved the mopars in the early 70.s whrn thry wete useing B .BODYS MUTCH BETTER SWINGERS CUDAS DARTS.72 VALIANTS DUD LIKE YHE DUSTERS EITHER STARTING TO GET 2 BIG ..71 SWINGER WAS A GRATE HOT ROD
انها رائعه
I have a 71 charger r/t. 440 six pack.
大好きな車です！速いですか？😮
Most rusted away,but this bee is still stinging Z28 s
Looks like Tor Red the color of my 71 Charger Se with the 440
Though that is an amazing car, I greatly prefer the older body style super bee. I really like the squared and sharp body lines prior!
Ill take it!
Be more interesting with the asking price included. Cheers 🇨🇦

@@highoctaneclassics3969 thanks I guessed 60K. Nice Bee
Superb, except the tires.
What about the 109 440 six packs and 26 440s?
I don’t remember seeing a ‘71 Bee with 14” road wheels. Were they standard?
Not standard, Road and Rallye were both options. In 70 and 71, Road were only available in 14”, only Steel and Rallye could be had in 15”.
Hey it's Wednesday the 14 and you haven't posted on your other channel, hopefully everything is ok with you and shane let us know your ok please
All good we have been selling all new inventory before we get to shoot them!! Crazy busy
@@highoctaneclassics3969 cool. Thanks
The 71 383 was only rated at 300 hp due to a compression drop not 330
Was Dodge applying build tags with screws?
Yes
Steve, what compression was the '71 383 Magnum, still around 10-10.5/1? 👍🏁
Dropped in '71 to around 8.5:1. 300 HP down from 335 in 1970.
Thanks man.
@@NewbombTurk. According to my standard catalog of Chrysler the 4-barrel version of the 383 had a 9.5 to 1 compression ratio in 1971. A little down from 10 to 1 in 1970.
The 383 compression ratio was listed at 9.5 to 1 in 1970
I’d rather have the standard black ball shifter knob. Never liked the pistol grip.
i like 1972 better as well as 1972 Satellite
1971 is the true "cut off" year for classic muscle cars. Anything from 1962 to 71 are the "golden years" of the classic muscle car era. After 1971, muscle cars had the engines detuned with lower compression ratios meaning LOWER horsepower. Stay away from "factory stock" engines from 1972 on through the mid 80s. 1 exception Pontiac t/am 455 SD. It was the last of the true muscle cars.
Merica
Buyer Be Aware! One of the most “Fake” classic muscle cars are The Super Bees. This one, if real (yes, people switch fender tags and dash plates!) is cool with power windows in it. Maybe the gentleman forgot but that is not the original steering wheel that came with the car.
That is a Tuff wheel on the car. They most certainly were available on 71 Super Bees. I ought to know as mine came with one from factory.
@@Komet163B Really?, I never seen one like this.
Never liked vinyl tops, otherwise great car when not in red. Lol
Ford should have copied those exhaust tips for Torino, they were straight and not a good look.
Cool car but it's amazing what people think a 300 HP car with drum brakes is worth
That car has power brakes, disc in the front and drum in the rear.
The condition and the rareness is driving the value of that
Actually, these exhaust manifolds are gimmicks. They do not do anything in terms of power. There is a good dyno test on the internet that compares the standard and HP manifolds on a 440, and there is no difference at all! But the exhaust manifolds are visible, so they were a good way to add visual hp. These bigger manifolds heat up the underhood air more, so they decrease performance.
No one remembers the 68 1/2 super b
Everyone remembers the 69 1/2 super Bee .. just sayin😊
In what alternative universe are you living in where you think a Dodge Charger Super Bee with a 383 could ever be had new for "Way less than three thousand bucks"? Not true.
I bought 3 of them 20 years ago 1600-2700 not today. 🤣
How is it even possible to go from what many consider the most beautiful body lines on a car in the world, to that? I realize beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but come on, really?
Don't get me wrong, there were plenty of cars that were way more ugly in 1971(almost any Ford), but compared to the 68-70 Charger, It was clearly a step down.
I use to not like them and one day it grew on me. I love them now.
I can agree that 68-69 were better looking, Yes I deliberately left 70 out as I think they were over done, but aerodynamically 71-74 were far superior leaving the 500 and Daytona out of the picture.
Thats a nice looking car but man the 71+ sure are ugly compared to the second gen cars.
Beautiful car
