1969.5 Dodge Coronet Super Bee A12

This mid-sized muscle option from Dodge was conceived and launched halfway through 1965—hence the odd nomenclature—and aimed at attracting a thriftier consumer with a need for Mopar. And the 390 hp V-8 features a new-at-the-time configuration of three two-barrel carburetors.

Engineers also tinkered with a number of engine and suspension components to increase power and speed. The “Bee” in the moniker is believed to refer to the car’s “B” platform body style, while the “Super” is self-explanatory when considering the power train.
