I’m looking for a chrome mirror for the passenger door of my 1972 satellite wagon.

The “emblem” in the center of my 72 satellite wagon is missing. It appears that it was likely a decal? If so, does anyone know where I can buy one?

I never thought of that. Any idea what having them made costs roughly?

I’m sure this is a very common issue with these old wagons, but the wood grain on my 1972 satellite wagon is looking ratty. The car is a survivor so I guess I can cut the wood grain some slack since it is 50 plus years old. Is there a source out there for the correct wood grain decals so the...

Cheers! I found my issue as to why it only reads 1/2 full when full; found some fuel in the float. Hopefully I can find a replacement and should be perfect once again

I’m trouble shooting the fuel sending unit on my 1972 satellite station wagon. I have it on the bench and it reads 11 ohms at full, and 80 ohms at empty. I’m not sure if these sending units are different from the wagon vs the car since the tank is oriented differently, or that the wagon gets a...

When I recently bought my 72 satellite wagon, the previous owner had replaced the wiper blades with modern replacements, and they were too “high” and would hang up on the edge of the hood and not bed properly below the hood. I went to Napa and ordered up replacements and the ones that came up...

So a strange question, but the license plate light assembly out of my 1972 satellite wagon was in the glove box when I bought it. I played around with installing it tonight with the 2 screws upward into the top part of the bumper above the license plate, but it doesn’t seem to fit right. Can...

Cheers

I’m still waiting for the shop manual to arrive for my 1972 satellite wagon I recently bought. The horns are not working and the previous owner said the horns haven’t worked in years. Tomorrow I’m going to start trouble the horns and repair them. Can anyone tell me where the horn relay is...

Cheers

I found this photo of a 72 satellite wagons wheel;perhaps the holes are for the entire wood grain insert that has the “Plymouth” attached to it?

Of course I googled first but I didn’t see anything like my wheel with the wood grain in the center except a couple. They had the word Plymouth on the wheel but that doesn’t correspond with the 2 vertical stacked holes in my wheel center.

Starting to clean up the survivor 1972 satellite wagon I picked up last week. I noticed there is an emblem missing in the middle of the steering wheel; what emblem would have been there originally? I’ll need to track one down!

I’ve got the grille fully disassembled and I am ready to repair the few cracks in it and then move forward. The headlight doors pivot on steel brackets that are riveted to the plastic frame, and I would like to remove these and blast them, paint them and then reinstall them later. The rivets...
