Description:
1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring, “Landsat-8”
This stunning 1972 Plymouth Satellite is a beautifully restored and modified custom classic that embodies the spirit of American Muscle.
This vehicle is more than a car, it’s a work of art on wheels and an undeniable statement of Mopar automotive design. This iconic Plymouth features the fuselage B Body design, a bold aerodynamic style instantly recognizable and beloved for its unapologetically swoopy look. This classic ride retains that unforgettable Mopar muscle look while incorporating subtle modern upgrades throughout to enhance the driving experience for today’s roads. It is a piece of history and a rare statement of style impossible to find in this concours condition.
The multi-year restoration of this Satellite included a body-off rebuild, ensuring elimination of any rust and resulting in a pristine, flawless exterior finish. The rebuild went hand in hand with modern upgrades, including a rebuilt engine, new intake manifold, new dual four barrel carburetors, aluminum powder coated radiator, assisted pneumatic disc brakes, and electric cutouts. Additional improvements like powder coated headers, a crossover dual exhaust, new Legendary interior, loop carpets and fat new BF Goodrich tires round out the improvements.
The Mopar B Body styling screams classic muscle with its wrap around “loop bumper” and clean bold lines, making this car as much a showpiece as it is a powerfully exciting driving machine. A testament to its excellence, this Custom Built Satellite Sebring, was introduced the “Landsat-8” and immediately won the Best in Class at the 2018 Portland Roadster Show, a prestigious automotive West Coast Event. The build later that same year, won restoration awards at the Forest Grove Concours d’Elegance.
This concours level Mopar, one of the best examples of a Satellite Sebring you will find, is accompanied by ribbons, and trophy’s from these events which all add to its already significant provenance. With a new suspension, Concours quality paint, a “Beep-Beep” horn, and rust free body, this car is striking and mechanically impeccable. Though it has been upgraded for performance and reliability, this car retains the original radio for authenticity, although it is non functional.
This thoughtful of old and new underscores the respect paid to the car’s heritage while adapting it to meet modern expectations. It’s a car you can show pridefully while enjoying an outstanding touring experience, with components like new shocks and a carved wooden grip steering wheel to enhance
comfort and control. With it’s head-turning French Vanilla exterior, impeccable craftsmanship, and award-winning legacy, this 1972 Mopar is the perfect blend of power, performance and elegance.
Whether you’re seeking a showstopper for car events or a valuable addition to your classic car collection, this is a rare opportunity to own a unique piece of automotive history that stands out in style and substance.
