superbee is actually road runners cousin but gtx is roadrunners brother

[hemihead]

I like the 69 Bee but would rather have the 69 Coroonet R/T. Gotta love them taillights! 

[69 OUR/TEA]

Would love 69 bee,N96,auto,T5 copper,white int,white top + stripe!!!

[bsakal]

69 vert

Dodge didn't make a Super Bee convertible. That would have been cool though.

I had a '68 that was cool, but I like '69's better.

[kokxville]

69 1/2 orange with liftoff hood and 4 speed manual transmission.
Man,i've once had a 69 coronet 440 2 door,Had a matching # 383 2bbl and a 727.i still have regrets i sold that car.

[Brock Samson]

the GTX was the top 'o the line Plymouth (excepting the superbird of course)...
the Charger was the Top of the line Dodge.. excepting the 500 and DAYTONA...
I'd agree with the '69 1/2 SIXPACK, but really desire a '69 GTX Convert Four speed. oh, and in Black.  Please...

...of course only when ya' can get around to it Lord. 

[runninhorn]

I believe the Coronet R/T was the GTX sister car. The Charger was a stand alone type thing.

[mikepmcs]

This one for sure.

Could have bought it for 13k

It's halfway down the thread and look for my post with pics.  Man I wish I had the money back then.

Should of made this post a poll, but 1968 all the way

Colors would be Red or Blue

[Doright]

68,69 and 71!!!!

[69CoronetRT]

whats the diff between the superbee and coronet?

whats the diff between the road runner and GTX?

"Coronet" was the model line and the Super Bee was a sub model based on the Coronet platform. The Super Bee was a mid level trim model. The standard engine was the 383 with four speed with the Hemi optional or the 440-6bbl in 70 and 71. There was a run of special option cars, the A12 cars, in spring-summer of 69. The option consisted of the 440-6bbl engine, lift off hood, Dana with 4:10 gears and black steel wheels.

The Coronet R/T was the high level trim model with the 440 standard and Hemi optional 67-70; the 440-6bbl was available in 70 only. Dodge had two intermediate size car offerings; the Coronet and Charger. The Coronet name was used for four doors in 71 while the Dodge Coronet two door line up was consolodated with the Charger nameplate laving Dodge with one line up in the intermediates. No Coronet R/Ts after 70. The 71 Super Bee was still a mid level trim while the Charger R/T was Dodge's high level trim performance car.

The same applies to the Plymouth line up for the Road Runner and GTX. RR was the lower level trim and the GTX was the high level trim. Plymouth did not have a model equivelent to the Charger.

And I'm partial to the 69's also...

[Charger-Bodie]

       "Plymouth did not have a model equivelent to the Charger"


                 no car line had a model equivelent to the CHARGER!!!

[71ChallengeHer]

I have to say 1970 Super Bee. I love the front.

[71charger_fan]

"the GTX was the top 'o the line Plymouth (excepting the superbird of course)...
the Charger was the Top of the line Dodge.. excepting the 500 and DAYTONA..."

That probably would come as a surprise to the Chrysler marketing folks who were selling Fury IIIs, VIPs, Monacos, and Polaras.

But, to answer the question, I'd say '71.

[69CoronetRT]

       "Plymouth did not have a model equivelent to the Charger"


                 no car line had a model equivelent to the CHARGER!!!

The Charger was originally designed to compete in the personal luxury field with the Buick Riveara, Olds Toronado and Ford Thunderbird. It was not envisioned as Dodge's top intermediate performance car. The 67 Coronet R/T was to fullfil that roll against the Chevelles, Fairlanes, 442s and GTOs. The legendary body redesign in 68 with the addition of the R/T label catapulted the Charger over the Coronet for Dodge's top of the line performance car. Since Charger R/Ts out sold Coronet R/Ts from 68-70 and established the Charger nameplate, it only made sense to drop the Coronet R/T after 70

[Brock Samson]

    i was thinkin B-Bodys of course, and I accept that the Charger was a stand alone Model.

[Harlow]

I like 68's and 69's best. I almost got a '68 coronet 440 (base model 318). I'm glad I didn't. My Sport Satellite was a better deal and plus, it had a big block

[69CoronetRT]

the GTX was the top 'o the line Plymouth (excepting the superbird of course)...
the Charger was the Top of the line Dodge.. excepting the 500 and DAYTONA...

Let's remember the Superbird was nothing more than an option package on a Road Runner, the 69 6bbl cars were option packages on the RR and SBs. They were not new sub models of an existing car line like the 68 Super Bee or Charger R/T were. (WM and XS) It could be argued the 69 Charger 500s and Daytonas were separate sub models as the sub model VIN designation changed but they also carry A** package codes.

[WM23N1]

The 1971. Like the charger,this was the year they got it perfect.

[Nacho-RT74]

70, same as I like the 70 Coronet...

Never will get completelly just a sligthly different package called like a different car. 

[Brock Samson]

OK OK!  Allready i dont need to be ripped another asshole thanks!   

[Anders]

69 1/2 lift off hood super bee r4 4gear

I agree, I like the 69½ 6pack the best, but would take any 68-70 Bee on any day.

[twilt]

The 1971. Like the charger,this was the year they got it perfect.

[Nacho-RT74]

OK OK!  Allready i dont need to be ripped another asshole thanks!   

that's for me ?

If so, sorry is just an opinion  ... I would call them Coronet Super bee, like Charger R/T or in fact the same Coronet R/T yes but not just Dodge "Superbee". Is simply the same car with different package.

of course I respect the Mopar call outs, but simply don't get completelly the idea.

[Brock Samson]

No Natch not for you... You've allways been exceptionally helpful and polite,  quite unlike myself of course..

A-12s rule!

[68isgr8]

I'm partial to '68 coronets.   

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

Triple Black 1970 hemi 4-spd superbee

[hemi-hampton]

Heres the Equivelents:

Charger XH base model = Satellite RH base model
Charger 500 XP (luxury)= Satelitte Sport RP (luxury)
Charger R/T XS (hi po 440 standard) = GTX RS (hi po 440 standard)

Or you could substitute the Belvedere for Satelitte & Roadrunner
for low budget minded Hi Po model with 383 standard, not 440.

LEON

[pettyfan43]

F6 Rally green 69 4 speed 6 pack lift off hood car!

Second would be a 71 Six pack 4 speed in Plum Crazy purple

[hemi-hampton]

I like my Buddy's 70 Super Bee I restored for him, F4 Light green Metallic with Green C Strip. Second favorite would be Black 71 Superbee. LEON.

[Nacho-RT74]

yeeeah!!! 70s are starting to rule on thread... SMOOOTHER LINES

[Charger-Bodie]

there is nothing wrong with a 70 dodge b body i just personally like 68 and 69 better ........shampoo is betta ..no conditioner is betta!!

[73chgrSE]

The 1971. Like the charger,this was the year they got it perfect.

me too. that's perfect.

[konigcharger]

'71

how about a b5 340 3spd non a/c buckets

[Goldfinger71]

1st-----68
2nd----71
3rd-----70  ( I really like the 70 and 71 about equal! )
4th-----69

[472 R/T SE]

That's a tough one.  For me it would most likely be a '70 V code with the 69.5 a close 2nd.   

[Arthu®]

I have to say 1970 Super Bee. I love the front.

[Charger1973]

Yellow 71 Bee.   

[runninhorn]

so are A12 cars 69.5 superbees with the liftoff hood?

[Manfred318]

'70 for me

[Charger-Bodie]

so are A12 cars 69.5 superbees with the liftoff hood?

yep and the a12 option was also available on road runners also considered 69 1/2

[mikesbbody]

71, the others dont even come close

[supserdave]

Way to tough of a choice...I think the best would be a 70 front, with 68 tail lights, a 69 lift off hood, and a 71 bucket seat with a pistol grip interior....Best of everything!

[dpm68]

1970, of course.

[dpm68]

"The 1971. Like the charger,this was the year they got it perfect."

[chargerrt]

Man, my favorite Super Bee is a 1968.  I want it to be a black "post" car with a hemi and a 4-speed without the console 

[71 Bee Man]

The 1971. Like the charger,this was the year they got it perfect.

I'm pretty biased myself.

[Bob]

70 got my vote also.

I have to say 1970 Super Bee. I love the front.

[old man]

70 got my vote also.

I have to say 1970 Super Bee. I love the front.

70 has my vote also but I wouldn't turn away a 68 or 69.

[CharlieCharger]

70 Bee, anyone see that movie "CHOKE" that 70 superbee gets ALOT ALOT ALOT of footage..its a cheesy movie but the car in it makes it worth it... Dennis Hopper is in it..

[Mean 318]

I LOVE THEM ALL!

[ck1]

68 for the only two engine available and four speed rarity, plain no nonsense muscle that started it..........

[runninhorn]

how rare are the A12's? what did it run stock in the 1/4 mile? was the 69.5 A12 the fastest stock bee?

[gtx6970]

Superbee
1970 hands down., color would'nt matter much,  FY1 yellow would be high on the list though, preferably 6 pack column auto ,bench seat.
383 would work just as well if it has A/C

the other years don't really do much for me.

[Ghoste]

1969 and dark green.

[blackcharger]

I like the 69 Bee but would rather have the 69 Coroonet R/T. Gotta love them taillights! 

[nakita7]

1970 Lime on black with a black C-stripe. Nothing cooler as far as Superbees go. Would like to buy one like this, if you have one, or know of one LMK. No dreamers please.

Second would definately be the 71. Just plain cool. Sorry, 68 and 69 bore me (and yes, I did own a 69).
