Description : Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to present this 1966 Plymouth Satellite! The vehicles appears to have every nut and bolt touched during itâs restoration.
We know a lot of Mopar fans have a sharp eye for correctness so we begin the writeup discussing the headrests. These were an option for 1967, but added to this vehicle for a very very legitimate reason!
The steward of this incredibly well-built Satellite purchased the project in 2005 and poured years of time and money into a very high quality restoration.
Coming from California with itâs original 318 the 1966 Plymouth Satellite now have a 383 with AC under the hood. The AC was never fully-finished to be made functional. The engine bay is in great condition with many shiny bits to draw your eye! All in all the mileage on the odometer is believed to be correct, and the seller estimates less than 3,000 miles since the completion of the restoration.
The underside of the vehicle is also incredibly clean showing the owner seriously cared about maintaining the very high condition of this vehicle. It has been buffed to a very high level has a show-like finish.
We are very proud to offer this vehicle and to pass the ownership torch to the next lucky buyer!
This 1966 Plymouth Satellite is offered by the St. Louis sales staff and can be seen in full detail on our website. Our listing all include 100+ HD photos and a detailed video!
