HISTORY: Knowing how rare and important this car was, Richard Tisdale
freshened it up and included it in his 50 Fastest Muscle Car Collection and slated it for his new Museum(reference

It is 1 of only 4 Factory four speed Hemi Convertibles built in 1966 and 1 of 2 convertible HEMI 4 speeds Registered with the Chrysler Registry. The remaining 23 HEMI Satellite convertibles built that year had automatic transmissions. Knowing this makes this particular car the most rarest factory production muscle car car ever built. Overview: The 1966 Plymouth Satellite was the top of the Belvedere model line. A total of 35,399 two-door hardtop coupes and 2,759 convertibles with only a mere 27 HEMI Satellite convertibles were produced. The biggest change for 1966 in which the Satellite is most noteworthy is the introduction of the Chrysler 426 CID "Street HEMI" engine. It was the
most powerful engine available on the 1966 Plymouth Satellite. The engine had two four-barrel carburetors and a compression ratio of 10.25 - to - 1. It was rated at 425 hp but actual output was estimated to be closer to 550 hp and could run 0-60 in 5.3 sec and the 1/4 mi in 13.8 sec. It was one of the quickest production cars ever made.
