I use a couple of guys to transport that would probably charge around $1000-$1200 to transport it from CA to IL. Just an FYI.

I really like the 71 better than the 72.My perfect car would be a 71 Curious Yella,4 speed,Air Grabber hood car.I must have a car with the Airgrabber OR 4 speed,one or the other atleast.I don't like FE5 red, white,and F6 Sassy grass.I would like a nice 15k-26k nice driver.I may take the right project car and alot of cash for my 70 Road Runner.
Thanks,Jim

Hey Jim
I heard that this is National "Befriend a computer Geek" month.:hug:
Maybe you could introduce one to Mopars at a weekend cruise or drag race in trade for some posting instruction?:comp26:

I have a buddy selling a very nice Red one, but I can't recall the specs. It's a 71 located here in MI. Here's his cell #248-563-9025 I have pics, but I'm not sure where they are. Tell him Steve Cool gave you the #.

THANKS 69Runner
I would also possibly trade it for a 68-70 Charger,67-69 Formula S,69 'Cuda,or 70-74 Barracuda or Cuda.I just like to get a different car every two or three years.Since I can't afford a whole fleet of Mopars anyway.

that actually is a pretty good plan. I sort of got attached to mine.
Many years ago I got it from my cousin Wayne. He was raising his kids and really couldn't afford it, but his kids love it. Well he passed away a couple years ago. Now his son is raising kids too but I know he would never fogive me if i sold it to anyone else.

Yes, my Satellite came from Washington State. Due a transport from WA to Oakland the Satellite found the way overseas to me!

I have a 72 Petty Blue Satellite Sebring Plus. It is listed on this site if you would like to see pictures. It's a factory small block car (318) with auto trans, which it still has today. It has a Jasper engine and TCI 904 trans, both with low miles. I have access to a steel crank 440 and possibly a 727 which both were removed from a early 70's (72 or 73) C-Body. I didn't do the BB conversion because I didn't want to spend the money and gas prices where at $4/gal. Everything on the car is new. Very straight West Coast body with all original panels. No scale (rust) in trunk or on floors prior to repaint. Only needs are engine bay paint and big block if someone desires. For how I use the car, the 318 is just fine.
Thanks,
Tony

Thanks for the reply Jim. I'm a B5 guy myself, but the original color was Petty Blue, so I went back with that. Some people really love it. It is starting to grow on me a little though. Good luck with you sale/trade.
