Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this Nicely restored
and rare 1968 Plymouth Satellite complete with a 383 v8 Motor and a
727 Automatic Transmission.
HISTORY
The Plymouth Satellite was introduced as an up-market variant of
the Belvedere in 1965, a niche market, like the similar Sport Fury
and VIP in the Fury line. Only available as a two-door hardtop and
a convertible, the Satellite carried a 318-cid, 230-hp V-8 as base
equipment, while optional engines included 361-cid and 383-cid
V-8s, all the way up to a stonking 426-cid Hemi V-8, with 425 hp on
hand. Four speed transmissions were offered, though few buyers
ticked that box.
The Satellite was revised with a much sharper profile in 1966 and
sales responded favorably. Chrysler introduced the 425 hp "Street
Hemi," with 817 went in to Satellite hardtops, (503 with
four-speeds) and 27 into Satellite convertibles. The luxury
Satellite was slightly face-lifted in 1967, with only two Street
Hemis being installed in Satellite hardtops and one in a Satellite
convertible.
SECOND GENERATION SATELLITES: A restyled and higher trimmed Sport
Satellite model with a standard 318 V8 was introduced in 1968. A
4-door sedan and station wagon were offered for the first time.
The 1968 model year was also the introduction of the Plymouth Road
Runner that shared the same body as the Satellite and Belvedere
models.
The 1968 body continued through 1970, with a minor front and rear
restyling for 1970, which was the last year for the Belvedere name.
