Recently acquired a 74 LE Bumble bee. I purchased it a few weeks from a friend of mine who is 89 yrs old. He had purchased it in 1978. It was always very well maintained. Over the past few years he could not drive it, so I would try every few weeks to visit him and take it out along with him for a nice drive. He finally came to the conclusion that it was time to sell rather than have it sit in his garage and not be driven. I really felt the need to purchase it rather see it go away never to be seen again. Now I can take him out for a drive when ever he wants. It was very painful for me to see how hurt he was to let go. Now he can be rest assured that it is in very good hands.

 Photo back in 2019 after getting it back on the after 10 years on jack stands in his garage. There is an article in Panorama December 2019. When I registered the LE I saw the save the bees license plate and thought it would be perfect for this car. |
