METICULOUS ROTISSERIE RESTORATION

History: Purchased new at Crestview Chrysler Dodge in Regina, Saskatchewan. A 19-year old farm boy from Sedley, Sask. bought it for his wedding car in 1969. A bench seat was ordered as it was common for your girlfriend to sit right beside you! Original owner is alive and known. Decoded by Galen Govier. Only known 1970 Super Bee Hardtop built in this colour combination and equipped with a 383 Magnum, 4 speed manual transmission and bench seat. Meticulous rotisserie restoration by Larry Glubis of Regina, Sask. Took two years to detail and assemble with NO detail overlooked. Less than 100 miles on the build.
