It was sometime in 2007 or 2008 I had finished my ’32 Ford Roadster,well kinda. Being a Dead Man’s Curve member, we are always looking for the next project. I had a curiosity for a Mopar project and keeping a look out for a Superbee or a GTX. Prices at this time were really high. Let me preface this by saying I am one of the only members without a straight axle car. I am looking in a magazine and I see this Plymouth Jacked up Sky high, I had to have one, “Street Freak” I think it was called in the article. So now the hunt is on. I did a little research and found that this was a 1966 Plymouth Satellite. I found one on Ebay for $5,000, but it was in California. Meanwhile some of the club members were on me about buying this 40 plus year old car site unseen. (I am not flying out to California to look at a $5,000 dollar car) I will take my chances. I made arrangements to have it shipped to the Farm.

The day finally comes and the car is delivered. Rich calls me the next day and says you gotta see this, there is no rust and it is as straight as an arrow. Upon closer inspection the interior is near perfect, except for carpeting. It has deluxe interior with the Western Scroll all chrome interior window moldings, bucket seats and a console. All in all, this looks to be a great doner car for the project ahead.
