The Powerglide gets things rolling with a big-stall, quick off the line at the track, or a burnout machine on the street! New B & M ratchet shifter with 2 gears: fast and faster!
Tricked-out suspension with a great stance, this Bee is ready to rumble!
Interior is very comfy, with a bench seat and a roll bar hoop and new carpet.

12 bolt rear end with an aluminum driveshaft and 5/8" wheel studs keeps everything turning fast and strong!
Some history on the “Honey Bee”…
This car has been owned by 2 families since built nearly 50 years ago.My father raced this car with his friend in the early 70’s.They won lots of ¼ mile races with the Honey Bee.My father sold the Honey Bee to his race buddy in the early 80’s andthey continued to upgrade and race the Honey Bee.I bought Honey Bee back a few years back to get the car back in the family.We know the entire history of the car, it has been parked and stored inside its ENTIRE LIFE.And of course was stored every winter!
This car is extremely solid.See the photos of the underside.All floorboards, body panels, etc. are solid metal.You can polish the underside!See the photos and judge for yourself.
This is a nostalgic racecar.You can take it to a car show, you can take it to the track.It’s not a mall cruiser.It’s a fire breathing old school dragon!
