I’ve been on FABO for years since my dad passed and left behind a stockpile of old A Body parts, chopped up cars, and engines. I realized I’d never be able to resurrect the Dart he left behind, so I sold what I could and put together the cash to pick up a Satellite. I’ll post more later, as I just moved to the Buffalo area, but I picked my car up from Virginia and it’s fresh out of body and paint. It’s been a vision of mine for years and I was finally able to bring it to fruition. Definitely not a restoration, so I might hop over to the restomod section later, but nothing else has been done to the car yet. Let me know what you think!

(Well, I tried to post about 10 pictures, but only three weren’t too large to upload. I forgot these sites can be finicky)

The paint really pops in the daylight. It’s Lexus Nori Green Pearl. Tried to do the modern F8, but saw a few satellites that looked a little “flat” with that color on it.

I think it looks great! If it were mine, I would'nt change much at all. It has decent value to boot.....personally would not go the restomod way.
 
That color is beautiful and makes that body style look even cooler. What power train are you putting into that beast?
 
I can't believe I'm saying "I like that color of green".
 
I must say for myself, the '71-'72' B-bodies both on the Plymouth and Dodge lines are some of the greatest designs since the '68 models. I call them the Last looks, Last Licks and Last laughs models since they will be the hot ones to have in a few years.
The '71-'73 Chargers were beautiful and way different then anything out there, though a little heavy, but we all know how that can be rectified.
