The stylish Satellite was the top model in Plymouth’s midsize Belvedere lineup for 1965. Exhibiting clean styling by Elwood Engel, who had been called upon to revitalize Chrysler’s stuffy early-Sixties image, the sleeker new car arrived to good reviews that welcomed its clean features, fashionable bucket seat interior and a range of V-8 engines. Only 1,860 Satellite convertibles were built, making them quite rare today. It is reported to us that only 65 of these were equipped with the 426 Street Wedge and a mere 21 had the automatic transmission.

This great looking convertible runs with a track-tested 426-cid, 365-hp Wedge V-8 engine fitted with a four-barrel carburetor, dual exhaust and mated to a Torqueflite three-speed automatic. Finished in Copper Metallic paint, this uncommon Satellite convertible also features a new black soft-top, plus a black interior that features leather bucket seats and center console with shifter and tachometer. Additionally the car has power steering, full-size spinner wheel covers, whitewall tires and comes with its original Broadcast Sheet.
