1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Barn Find

[drader]

Hello,

I am a new member of 'B' bodies forum.

I became a member when I purchased a 1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring when doing Christian work in NE Oklahoma. After, helping a widow I noticed a very dirty car that looked like a Road Runner. I asked if she wanted to sell and she said it would be great to sell it after her husband died 16 years ago and she needed the space in her barn. The car has 29,600 miles on the odometer. Long story short, I became a fan of the Plymouth with it's unique front end and profile.

I have the Sebring in my shop that needs restoration to safe vehicle operation. It may become a daily driver with the high cost of newer vehicles these days.

Welcome to FBBO from Georgia.

There must be some universal law that survivor cars are green. I like green.

Nice car. Congratulations!

Big block or small block engine?

Don'tcha know ? All Mopars built in that era were green ? It certainly seemed so back then, it would like, here comes another green Mope in the garage.

Do you have any photos of the interior, wheels, engine bay, and trunk? What motor does it have 318? Also, is that 63 Impala I see? If, so, is it yours too?

Continuing my restoration of my 72 Plymouth. Anyone have any advise for restoring the paint. Sitting in the barn for 16 years it collected a lot of dust and contamination. It's too expensive for a detailing service. Just looking to give it a good look, no car shows for now. Just a daily driver.
I have an orbital sander with buffing pads. Product advise would be great.
