1966 Plymouth Satellite
Car History
This 1966 Plymouth Satellite we have here at Adventure Classics was
designed to be cheap fun when it was new, and a lot of hot rodders
back then raced, in drag race competition and on the street, a big
block engine in these cars that was a take-no-prisoners piece with
an attitude that made these cars so successful in the glory years
of the muscle car era.
Today they're red-hot collector's items. Ours has had a new
powerplant added, a 440 cubic inch dual-quad modified engine,
TorqueFlite tranny, and H.D. rear end, plus mag wheels, a hood
scoop, and Plymouth callouts on the sides to make this a NHRA Super
Stock looking period muscle car.
Engine & Drivetrain
When you lift the hood, you can't help but notice how period
correct, and mean, this engine and compartment looks! It has a
rebuilt and much modified 1969 440 cubic-inch Six-Pack V8 engine
upgrade that has a lot of go-fast goodies, like the twin dual-quad
Edelbrock AVS four-barrel carburetors with twin open air cleaners,
an aluminum intake, MSD ignition, long tube headers and 3 �" dual
exhaust with electric cut outs, aluminum finned MOPAR valve covers,
cam and kit, power steering and brakes, and performance spark plug
wires.
The big block V8 feeds a stout Torqueflite A727 three-speed
automatic transmission with a shift kit and a 2200 rpm stall
converter, and it also has an aluminum water pump, Champion
radiator,
The front end was rebuilt with disc brakes on the front, KYB
shocks, GTX rear springs, and 3:50 gear in the Sure-Grip rear end.
It rides on great-looking polished Torque Thrust type 5-spoke
wheels and black sidewall tires.
Interior
The all black twin bucket seat and matching rear seat interior is
redone in an original style from Legendary Interiors so that
everything from the upholstery to the carpeting feels original and
clean.
It has a center console, chrome automatic floor shift, black
factory steering wheel, great black dash with factory gauges,
Autometer accessory gauges, matching door panels and headliner, and
pushbutton radio, all make for an ideal way to experience a premium
and powerful classic Plymouth.
Exterior
Our Plymouth has the look exactly how you want of a vintage race
car inspired Mopar. It has its classic and correct fiberglass
scooped MOPAR racing hood, sharp white paint job that shows off
this Satellite's sharp-edged styling, great chrome bumpers,
Plymouth call outs on the sides, full-length trim, and ornate
grille means this 66 is a cool done classic, right down to the
details.
Conclusion
This 1966 Plymouth Satellite we have here at Adventure Classics is
an icon of the muscle car era and an intimidating machine. It looks
the part of a serious racer and street contender, and it is with
that great 440 engine.
