Sooooo..... the show is coming, and not being happy with the exhaust on the Beater Bee, there was only one thing to do. Open up the check book and spend more money!

I decided an ECS exhaust was in order, and man, you talk about money well spent? That was money WELL spent! The H-Pipe has all the correct bends, flat spots, and fit up perfectly. Mufflers date coded, tail pipes fit up like a glove. The whole system installed in about :20 minutes with no alterations. Couldn't believe it. I even called ECS to tell them, "You... this...uh..geh....di.....mmmm!" And after I curbed my excitement, formed words that they could understand and thanked them for a great product.

More this week on a recap of my "Finer Details" on the BB, and a pictorial through my new book that's coming out at MCACN.... entitled, "Me and the Bee. How to restore your classic Mopar in one easy step: Sell It!" .

Cheers
Dave

Dave, you did an amazing job on the Super Bee. Will you drive it after showing it some? I'd be scared to take that out on the road with it being as amazing as it is. Kudos to you on a job extraordinarily well done.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments, and if it comes back with me to TX after the show, my plans are to beat this thing like a stolen rental car! But honestly, it's the build for me that's the fun. Don't get me wrong...I love driving them.... but I enjoy the creativity of building it more so than driving them. I guess we'll see what happens after the show. It's been just such a fun experience with the family of the original owner being a part of this too. Really looking forward to the show!

Cheers
Dave
