Featured Cars For Sale: 1969 Dodge Super Bee A12 440 6 Pack ...
We know where 90% of A12 cars ended up: The drag strip. Many started there too, and quite a few did quite well. So many have been repainted and restored with no thought of preserving history (which is why we're leaving Project Six Pack alone.) Run a ¼ mile at a time, this car never saw the street and was never even registered! Here it sits, restored but with full race history and photographs, and with 374 actual miles on the clock!

As any good racer would he kept notebooks of tire pressures, track conditions and more. More pages and receipts are devoted to the parts he installed, people he solicited for advice, part numbers and more. There are also dozens of pictures of the car in full race regalia—it's a wild trip down memory lane! Unfortunately for car and driver, Wyman grew ill in 1971 and stopped racing altogether. Like many cars in these situations the Super Bee was set aside for a "someday" return to the strip which never happened. Sitting in a barn the...
