Vehicle Detail
For sale is a 1968 Plymouth Satellite 4-door sedan. I am selling this car for my father who is the second owner. This is an original numbers matching Plymouth with original 318 engine (rebuilt) and the original stock interior. This car is in good to very good condition. It must be seen and driven to truly appreciate it. The car has 74,260 original miles on it. The motor was rebuilt in 1997, when the car had 70,000 miles on it, to its original specifications. The motor rebuild included a distributor rebuild, carburetor rebuild, new fuel pump, and water pump. The original air cleaner assembly is also available, but it is not installed on the car at this time. Car also includes the factory air conditioning system. In order to make the AC functional, the car simply needs a belt installed and the system recharged. Otherwise, no additional aftermarket or restoration parts have ever been included on this car. The exterior of the car is in very good condition. The car was originally white and a repaint was applied to the car when my father bought the car to ensure that the sheet metal retained its excellent quality. The only noticeable area that needs reconditioning body work is around the base of the rear window along the trunk seam. The previous owner had used body putty to fill in some small rust spots. The only other noticeable spots of rust on the car are at the bottom corner of the two front doors. Otherwise, the sheet metal on this car is in very good condition. There is no rust on the under side of the hood or the trunk lid. Additionally, there is no rust in the engine compartment or trunk. The frame, fender wells, and under carriage of the car has no rust. The fender trim, window trim and door handles specifically need to be reconditioned or replaced. The bumpers on the car are the original bumpers that came on the car. We have never been able to find replacement bumpers exactly like these, with the rubber bumper guards, so we chose not to replace them. Otherwise, they could easily be replaced with new chrome bumpers. You will find very few of a similar model year Plymouth (whether Satellite, Road Runner, or GTX) with original sheet metal in this condition. In fact, this car could also be an excellent donor for a Road Runner or GTX rebuild. The interior of the car in in very good condition. The interior is the original Green never restored and never reconditioned. The seats are in very good condition. The carpeting is original and in good condition. The floor pans have no rust in them and are in very good condition. The dash is original and in fair condition with only a couple minor cracks. The original thumbwheel radio is installed in the car but is not hooked up. The dash is missing the factory bezel. The door panels are likewise in very good condition. The small parts (such as door handles and window cranks) show signs of wear and age and probably should be replaced. Very few cars of this age will have as nice an interior without having been reconditioned. Buyer is responsible for shipping or pickup.
