Plymouth Satellite 318 CID 1967
General description :
Up for sale in our Tampa showroom is very nice 1967 Plymouth Satellite. The Plymouth Satellite is an automobile that was introduced as a 1965 model year top trim model in Plymouth's mid-size Belvedere line and available only in two-door hardtop and convertible body designs. The Satellite remained the top of the line model until the 1967 model year, where it became the mid-price model with the GTX taking its place as the top model. The power plant for this first generation Satellite is the original 318 cubic inch 5.2 liter V8 engine that is linked to a smooth shifting 3 speed automatic transmission. The exterior color on this Plymouth Satellite is a very rich and glossy red that is complimented very nicely by the white vinyl interior and red trim and carpet. For 1966 and 1967, the interior vinyl seats and door panels were treated to a unique 'Western Scroll' design which mimicked tooled leather in appearance. This was the 'premium' interior shared with the GTX in 1967. The 1967 Satellite was a carryover from 1966, but there were several trim changes. A new grille featured dual side-by-side headlights, a change in the rear trunk finish panel and taillights included multiple horizontal ribs. New horizontal aluminum trim at the lower body crease with lower silver paint gave all 1967 Satellites essentially a two-tone paint scheme. Options include: AM radio, power brakes, power steering, seat belts, vinyl interior, rally wheels wrapped in radial tires, front disc brakes and numbers matching. This classic example of Mopar Muscle is standing tall and ready for a new owner and can be yours with one simple phone call or email.
