Haven't seen anything here about the '70 Super Bee from the old GMP molds that finally released.
I have one, I can't pass up a Muscle B-body. I was surprised that this was a little better than the '70 Plymouths they did.
body/roof lines are closer to real car. better ride height by far. nice body panel fit. paint is beautiful!
interior is nice, although like so many the dash sits too low, and detracts for the otherwise well done interior.
has metal Super Bee emblem on the nose. very nice! rear cosmetics are superb! Engine is also typically well done.
I really think they nailed the ram air box under hood., has all the even small details for one of these.
Although the top radiator hose is on wrong side for 440-6 engine with large radiator.
Adding pic of engine. the ram air box has the mounting rivets, rubber seal, and the slide rubber skirts which is a very small detail to include. nicely done.

This one looks sensational ! A phenomenal companion to the Yat Ming convertible from some years back.

I've been waiting for a "owner review" on this one. I am on the fence....  You say the paint is nice but it "appears" the doors are different shades of purple (at least from all the pics I've seen). Your paint seems to be consistent. Any additional pics? I would LOVE TO SEE MORE.... Engine, Interior & Trunk. Thanks Chris! 😀Â

I'll put some more up later today. no, the doors match. trunk hood. I noted on some of the youtube video reviews of this model that the front valance paint did not match the rest of car. or the hood scoops. On mine thank fully the front valance is a perfect match.
and the hood scoops look different in some light conditions at some angles, but 99% of the time they look fine.
my only beefs are the dash height, radiator hose (I created a new one and corrected this), the plug wires run ahead of the hose next to fan (wrong in any engine, but easily fixed.)
one hood pin post was broken off. and the rear exhaust trumpets are a little too square and don't stick out enough.
the outside rear view mirror looks great, but BE CAREFUL! even a sneeze near it and it will break off!
that's about it. Overall I love it. i just wish they had done the Plymouths this well. Although with some tweaks this edna be just as good.
