Who makes the best quality repop grille for 70 Sport Satellite / GTX? Or are they all junk?

Yes, it does.

FWIW, here's a pic of my tag off of my '70 Satellite. The broadcast sheet may still be in the rear seat. I'll look tonight. Thanks.

I’ll look closer at my tag. But it is very rusty. Thanks for the clue.

I agree. But I wasn’t sure.

Understood. My car has AC from the factory so that makes sense. Thanks.

Is this original rear glass “clear” or “tinted”?

In hindsight, yes. I should have installed the 4-speed hump and subframe connectors already. I don't have Graveyard Carz money so I'm doing the best I can. I left the stuff on the car (deck lid, doors, hood, fenders, etc.) in that picture per the instruction of the body shop as opposed to...

What would be a good "To-Do" or "Not-To-Do" list when I receive my car back from painting at the body shop? Worded another way, what are some of your "lessons learned" when you guys have fully restored a Mopar? Should I Por-15 certain areas? If so, which areas? Should I remove the fuel tank...

I sent my ‘70 Satellite door hinges off to MoparLeo recently. I got them back in a little k er two weeks and they look almost too good to install! The transaction process couldn’t have been better. I just wanted to recommend his services.

What is the best source for door and trunk seals / weatherstripping for ‘70 Satellite? I’d like to buy good door / trunk seals that fit and work well.

Yes, I’m thinking of doing this for sure. It may not be necessary, but it seems to make good sense.

Great, thanks for the information.

My ‘70 satellite originally had a 318 with an automatic transmission and open rear diff. I’m going to upgrade to a 440 four-speed with a limited slip rear diff supported with new, upgraded rear leaf springs. I do NOT plan on drag racing this car with big sticky slicks on a prepped track. But...
