Vehicle Description
This 1966 Plymouth Satellite is exactly how you want a vintage
Mopar. It has its classic and correct red-on-red style, but you can
also see that there has been a solid investment in keeping it nice.
And while this was born a V8 machine, you now have a
professionally-built 440 V8 to give you a proper big block muscle
machine.
Red is always a standout color that makes you take notice. The trim
tag tells us it's the factory-correct color, but you can see there
has been a quality investment respraying this later in life. That's
why you have a high-gloss look that's smooth to the touch. And
sharp paint is ideal for this Satellite's sharp-edged styling. The
deep luster really seems to let the sunshine show off crisply
defined lines on the hood, fender tops, and hardtop profile. Plenty
of ornamentation such as body-hugging chrome bumpers, full-length
trim, and ornate grille means that nobody will mistake this for
anything but an upper-class model. It's a thoughtfully done
classic, right down to the details. So you'll like showing off
everything from the correct hood ornament to the Mopar road wheels
with bright redline tires that match the body.
The interior shows off more of the attractive red style. This was
given a nice restoration later in life so that everything from the
upholstery to the carpeting feels complete and clean. And just like
the exterior, you'll appreciate the details here, like the working
courtesy lights and AM radio that's still cranking out tunes. Plus,
bucket seats, a center console, floor shift, and an artful
thin/grippy steering wheel are the ideal way to experience a
premium and powerful classic Plymouth.
When you lift the hood, you can't help but notice how fresh all the
components look in the engine bay. This is a 440 cubic-inch V8 that
was rebuilt by Ewing Automotive. It was done in 2008, and receipts
show it was part of a $16k investment in this coupe. This big block
upgrade has your favorite go-fast goodies, like a Holly
double-pumper four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and MSD
ignition, and an X-pipe dual exhaust. The V8 feeds a stout
Torqueflite A727 three-speed automatic transmission that was
rebuilt at the same time as the motor. Plus you also have the
stopping power of power brakes with upgraded SSBC front discs.
The sale comes complete with the original warranty card, owner's
manual, and build receipts. You even have the stock wheels and
hubcaps if you want, too. This 440 Mopar hardtop is a combination
of cool and mean packaging that's rarely up for grabs. So don't
miss your chance, call today!
