The Satellite debuted in 1965 as an upscale version of the Plymouth B-bodied mid-size Belvedere. It would remain in production through 1974, spawning the GTX muscle car from 1967 to 1971. This 1970 example is a project that may have been in storage for years and it may or may not be complete. Though it comes with a 318 cubic inch V8, this may look like a GTX clone opportunity to some of our readers.

More than 82,000 Mopar buyers bought a Satellite in 1970, which was a good showing. The popular B-bodies were in the third and final year of production, which also included the hot Plymouth Road Runner and even hotter Dodge Charger. 28,200 2-door Satellite hardtops were ordered, including the seller’s example finished in what appears to be Lime Green paint which was applied to a lot of these cars.

The seller provides limited information on this garage find. It would be nice to know when the work was started and how long the car has been held captive. It must have been a well-used car as we’re told the 60,000 miles on the odometer is on the second time around. The original small-block V8 is said to be in there somewhere (installed?), paired with a TorqueFlite automatic transmission and an 8 ¾ rear end. A lot of new parts are in the mix, including a front disc brake conversion kit.

If you want to go the GTX route with this car, the seller is providing a set of upgraded torsion arms to support a big block engine (the GTX’s standard was a 440). We assume some of the body panels are bad as the seller is also sending new rear quarter panels, trunk pan, and rear frame rails. Located in a garage or storage unit in Colorado Springs, Colorado, this DIY Mopar is available here on craigslist for $5,000.
