hey guys and gals
This is my new baby. I bought a 1969 Plymouth Satellite Sport from a guy that my dad knew. I paid $200 for the car. I thought that it was a great deal. The car is in really rough shape, I'm not going to lie. The interior needs to be all redone. Most of the exterior panels need to be replaced. The engine that is in it right now is out of a 70's van, and the oil pan is wrong on it. I'm going to put a 383 motor in it, with a 727 tranny. I'm hoping to get the car painted at some point(Plum Crazy). I'm going to add pictures as i go along with the project.
Engine
This is the 360 motor that came with the car. This motor is from a 70's van and does not fit the car. I'm ripping this motor out and putting a 383 6-pack in.
We had to take the hood off to get the engine out
Out with the old
EXTERIOR
As you can probabley tell the body panels on the car are in really rough shape
All of the glass in the car is still good which is a bonus
Somebody tried to fix this fender before i got the car
This is what the car looks like after we took all of the front end apart (not a pretty site)
We had to cut the center of the rad support out to get the engine out. Yeah i can't wait to get the new engine in there
These are the last pics of my car for the year (I HATE WINTER)
I Bougth a tarp for my car because as soon as the snow melts i'm getting right back into it
The hood was the last part that i put away for the winter. I'm going to be buying parts for it over teh winter and i'll take pics of them to show you what i bought
INTERIOR
The door panels all need to be reupholsered
For some reason the drive shaft is in the car
The steering wheel was missing when we got the car so it was a little difficult to get the car on the trailer
When i tore up the carpet to my surprise there was a huge hole in the floor
When i took the gas pedal out a piece of flooring came out with it
I took all of the interior panels out and gutted the entire interior
Miscellaneous Parts
I still have the original owners manual
This would be all of the window trim i hope.
This would be the parts pile for my car. I've got everything in there. There's rims, bumpers, front end parts, interior parts, and i even think the driveshaft is in there.
leave me any feedback or any places that you know of where i can find parts for this car. Thanks guys
