Let's see some Satellite's!

My first car was a 68 sport satellite 318 auto. It was b7 blue with blue int. And black Vinel top.the thing I thought was strange was it had bucket seats,and colum shift with no console or buddy seat
 
Does it count if it's been highly Belvederized? Mine's been de-trimmed. Took these today :)

View attachment 419142 View attachment 419143 Just finishing this one up. Up for sale soon.
Absolutely beautifull. VERY similar to my new ordered 68 Roadrunner 2 dr hdtp. Same color with black vinyl top. I would like to see pics and know more details. Please keep me in mind when it is for sale. I would be very interested.................................MO
 
Thanks for posting these. I have a odd joy of seeing the 4 doors. I think they are cool. Good looking car.
 
Hey Dan, I see you're in Tacoma. I live in Puyallup. I don't think I've ever seen your car. Is the sill trim original?, and did all 66's have that trim? I've thought at times that if I ever painted my car, I'd think about getting rid of the rocker trim that was typical to all 67 Satellites, and install trim like yours at the sill, which is what the 67 'X had.

I actually live in Graham and have owned my Satellite for 35 yrs. It is bone stock except for wheels and duels. All the trim is what came with the car and believe me is unobtainable in good shape. I go to the Mopar show at the Graham fair grounds every other year as well as a few Ford and Chevy shows in the local area, Done real well with it. Only has 68k miles on it.

Bought this this weekend 600 bucks and a broken down 88 2wd ram and i had the title and keys. 383hipo with 742 8 3/4
 
I wanted a GTX, had to have a GTX, but couldn't find or afford one , so I bought my 69 Sport Satellite 383HP from the original owner in Sept. 1976. It's my first car. I rode a bicycle to work for a year to save $1000.00 to buy it. I held on to it all these years. Of course, within weeks, I swapped out the wheels & tires, factory intake, exhaust manifolds, 3.23 open end rear, and factory carb, and replaced with the standard performance parts of that time, along with a 489 case sure grip with 4.56 gears. That was my primary transportation, and band equipment vehicle for the next 3 years. Nuts, but that's what we did back then. I still have some of the original parts stashed, but no plan to put them back on. I took it off the road in 1979, had it re-painted in original Y2 Sunfire Yellow, rebuilt motor and trans for some drag racing & car shows. Then it sat for for a number of years after getting married, but other than the new wheels and tires in 2016, and having motor and engine compartment cleaned up & repainted back to original Y2 (foolishly painted engine compartment gloss black imron in '79), the car is exactly as it was in 1979. Not perfect, some small paint chips, but it's part of my life, and I have no plans to let it go, until my time is up. By the way, this is a great forum, with great people, and I have never seen another that is so rich in history, knowledge, enthusiasm, and the willingness to help fellow members. I am not very tech savvy, so hopefully I can get a couple photos along with this, with less difficulty than my previous post...

I have to tell you - those painted Direct Connection valve covers are FANTASTIC!

Thanks! Spent some time trying to decide what I wanted Actually powder coated them. Intake too. Block and heads are Mopar Performance Turquoise rattle can...closest match I could come up with.
 
Gettin' there!.....some guys hope to get their ride in a magazine, I thought it would be enough to make the 'ratty but radical' section in the back of Mopar Muscle when it was still a decent read:p
