Rust Bucket Restos’ 1970 Dodge Super Bee

Rust Bucket Restos spent many hours rebuilding their 1970 Dodge Super Bee called “Super BEEast” from a rusty shell. In the engine bay they installed a 6.4 L Hemi V8 upgraded with a Scoggin-Dickey Parts Center (SDPC) Stage 4 camshaft and valve springs. On top sits a Holley Hi-Ram intake manifold and on the sides are TTI exhaust headers. The combo should make approximately 560 hp (411 kW) and 550 lb-ft (745 Nm) of torque. Rust Bucket Restos paired the Hemi to a TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission, custom driveshaft, and Dana 60 rear end. The Super Bee’s handling also received an upgrade thanks to a USCT Motorsports Stage 3 chassis stiffening kit with a QA1 tubular front suspension and 4-link rear suspension. The front brakes are Wilwood six-piston while the rear are Wilwood four-piston. You can view the project’s full build on the Rust Bucket Restos’ channel.
