One "Super" Superbee

As I posted a reply to one of my posts, I thought I would explain the whole story behind this JL Superbee.
I have several, several white JL Dodges, Plymouths, Fords, Mercurys Chevys, Pontiacs, Buicks, and AMCs in my collection, White is a good looking color. I have one JL car will always stand out to me. The way I acquired it is "NUTZ"!!!
I always have collected what looked cool to me, and just wanted real looking cars. That's one reason I never got caught up in the chase for chase cars. I don't like gold trim, white engines, colored tires, or any of that other goofy looking stuff that aint on real cars. This one car is priceless to me...

This Superbee will never be forgotten in my book... I bought that on ebay several years ago. I did not know much about the WLs then, and didn't even know it was a WL. I just thought the car was cool. It was sold as loose. I had to be at work when the auction ended so I put in a max bid of what I thought was $5.50. Somehow I goofed in the rush to get out the door and my max bid ended up being $55.00. The auction went to $47.50 and I ended up paying $48.00 for that car. "CRAZY" I know ... I had just landed a commercial contract to replace carpet and ceramic tile in 150 motel rooms and just received a 10 thousand dollar down payment from Holiday Inn, so I figured "What the heck"
I have gotten soooooo much enjoyment from that 1 little car over the years, it was well, well worth it to me!!!
It is really one gorgeous car!!!

I hear you bro. :thumbup:

I love that triple-white '70 Bee, even if the engine does look sideways.

That does look that way for sure. I have wondered that myself, but it is sitting the right way... Others are like that too...
