Well I did something stupid today...        I bought another car....

But its a Mopar...

1966 Plymouth Satellite Convertible

Medium blue metallic with a light blue gut / Black power top.

Car has a running 318 Poly (numbers matching) with a console shifted automatic.

Car has clean floors with only minor surface rust

Known problems with the car:

1. Brake master cylinder failed.
2. fuel line is clogged and prevents fuel from tank.
3. Tear and dents in driver's side fender
4. Minor rust on driver's frame rail from battery (2 holes the size of a dime and quarter)
5. two finger tip size holes in the top and missing rear window.

so now the big question - what do you think I paid ?

Well - I paid $2800.00 for it...       not a bad price in my book because I havent found a running B-body vert for anything close to that here in CA...       guess the bad market is good for some people. :D

nothing like a convertible :Twocents: but I have found there is a very limited time in the midwest for driving enjoyment.  I feel if you can't put the top down, no reason to take it out of the garage.  Anything below 65 F and over 85 F is not real enjoyable, maybe a little less on the warm side if you have black interior.  i have thought of changing mine to white, but I would need to repaint all door pannels as well and since I have already purchased black covers, just not sure I want to go through all that.  something you should think about if you have black interior now.  Congrats sounds like a great deal, can't wait to see pictures.

That's an excellent price for a running, driving, B body ragtop in restorable condition. I'd have happily paid that! Good job, and of course.... WHERE'S THE PICS???  ;D

Well picked her up this morning and got her to the house without issue...       

So here are the pics









Only real damage to the body is this hole in the driver's fender along with some dents...  rest of the body is in excellent shape













Let me know what you guys think about her...
