Greetings and Attention vintage automobile collectors; We are offering 4-sale one (1); 1966 Plymouth 426-Hemi Satellite, 4-Speed, w/ 354:1 Dana-60 Rear. This "RP23H" code “Matching-Numbers” 1966 Plymouth “Street-Hemi" Satellite is one of only 503 Satellites produced in 1966 with the 426-Hemi engine, A833 Hemi 4-Speed and Dana-60 “Sure-Grip” 3:54-1 Rear-End option and ONE of just a Few produced in Dark Green Metallic paint with Black Interior.Please call Ken (845) 354-6955 for additional DetailsThe 1966 Plymouth Satellite was marketed as an Executive’s muscle car. Offered with the 426-Hemi engine; it is an undeniable automotive Legend. The stock 1966 Hemi Satellite is NO-doubt a “wolf in sheep’s clothing”. 1966 was the first year Chrysler/Plymouth offered the 426 Street-Hemi in passenger cars to the American public. Subsequently Hemi-cars progressed into the flashier Mopars of the later decade and consequently they overshadowed these none-the-less capable and extremely vintage Hemi MoPar B-bodies. This particular car’s 426-Hemi engine, transmission, rear-end, suspension, brakes and fuel-systems have been recently and thoroughly restored to like-new condition. Meanwhile the factory-undercoated underbody and interior still maintains its 48 year old unrestored patina. It has Non-Power Steering and Non-Power Drum Brakes. Overall; the body, interior, chrome and glass are in good factory original condition. The car has had one Acrylic-Enamel’ Metallic Green repaint about ten years ago. All its sheet-metal is in excellent, original (Never crashed or rotted) condition; sans for a small section of the front passenger floorboard which had experienced some pin-hole rust perforation due to an unknown leaking heater core (which has been repaired!). The exterior body has had experienced several door-dings and a very small dent filled with body filler prior to the novice paint job it now wears. There has never been any rust perforation on the external sheet-metal whatsoever. The interior currently has some seam-splitting dry-rot and a few small holes in the headliner, but it is in great original condition overall. I have owned this Plymouth since 1981 and it has been in dry storage for most of that time. I conservatively rate this car as a #4 condition car. It is a currently a turn-key running car, needing just minor TLC to become a solid #3 condition car.
