Has anyone seen the Freds Super Bee car that Chris Morely has been trying to sell for the last few years? If yes, is there enough there to turn it back into the race car? Si. Title: Re: unknow gasser Post by: LuftsickTero on January 30, 2007, 13:52:20 pm Here's one more unknown (outside Finland) gasser. Belongs to friend of mine and raced from mid to late 70's until late 80's. The name of the car is just an old local nickname for Beetle :D

Saw that, first thing I thought when I saw the interior was something along the lines of !!!!! and then I scrolled down and read the reason for it. Very cool car. 8) ...Here's one more unknown (outside Finland) gasser.... (http://www.kolumbus.fi/tero.j.virta/images/2005_Kosto_02.jpg) Could maybe have done with a couple more inches out of the roof though? ;D Title: Re: unknow gasser Post by: guillaume on January 30, 2007, 22:23:08 pm I don't think it is the same car, just look at the door handle. One looked to be pre 64, the other one 65 or 66.

Hi Ritchie The Old Freds Super Bee was Painted Red and Is Really a Basket Case It has bee sitting in Morely's yard for years it has more bird crap on it then paint it would have to be real cheap to be worth buying its in bad shapeHas anyone seen the Freds Super Bee car that Chris Morely has been trying to sell for the last few years?

He is still holding out for 4 grand for it, but by the looks of it, whilst it obviously has an interesting past, it is just a late model project covered in crap! I wonder how hard it would be to rebuild it, and re-do the signwriting properly? Title: Re: unknow gasser Post by: speedwell on January 31, 2007, 17:34:14 pm here's the super bee ;)
Title: Re: unknow gasser Post by: simon uk on January 31, 2007, 18:36:12 pm wow cool pic, the only one I have seen before is the one in Keiths book. You have to say that the car is pretty cool. The bodywork looks comparitively standard, and if you could get a good pic of the logo, someone could re paint it. Question is would someone pay $4k for the project car?

It was and old Race Car that has gone threw a few owners but it is really beat up now it is a car from the past but not as popular as other cars of the day it was a neat late model but even back in the pictures you have it was not a real clean car Title: Re: unknow gasser Post by: Kobus on January 31, 2007, 20:17:15 pm how cool it that.
