Congrats bro! I've wanted a 69' Sport Satellite for years, but I fear most have been parted or turned into RR clones.

Nice man! Sport Satellites are going to be the next big thing!

[Bandit72]

Looks great! Nice and solid. The underside should clean up nicely.

I see its got the correct washer bottle, too.

[Harlow]

Nice find 


Wish I could find a deal like that once

[RD]

thanks to everyone... to be honest, i traded the 72 demon for it.... some might call me crazy, but man... its a b-body!  I was never an a-body guy, thought I could like them, but the car did not grow on me.  And the trade passed the 250 mile away with no regrets test, so I am glad I have the satellite.

here is the kicker, the guy stated that the 3rd member was messed up and he could not get off the rims because they were frozen onto the wheel studs.  I didnt have the heart to tell him the driver's side were left hand thread, so I just said "yep, probably so!"  He thought the 3rd member had a spider gear problem (because it wouldnt roll forward), but I removed the rims and cleaned out the drums and "voila!", it now rolls forward.  That was another reason why he didnt want to mess with it.

The car is not a beauty queen by far, it has the rust issues in the rear trunk/wheelwell on the driver's side, some rocker rust and I will need to replace the driver's side door.  I will have to patch right behind the hood springs; replace each quarter panel, rocker, and the driver's side floorboard.

The hardest I think of all is going to find the sport satellite specific taillights and decklid panel (they are the same as GTX), hence everyone wanting them.

I WILL NOT CLONE IT TO A GTX.  It started as a sport satellite and stay that way (though a fiberglass sixpack hood may make it there) I am not sure about that though.  Right now its a daydreamer's paradise if you know what I mean.  There is way too much work on it right now to even think about stuff like that really (but I did anyway huh? )

I plan on making it roadworthy and cruise it the way it sits until my 73 RR is completed and then cruise it some more until my charger is done, AND THEN... I will start on this lol.  oh hell., who knows how these things end up.

Thanks to everyone on their comments.  FYI, its an original B3 blue car that was painted white.  I like the idea of having a blue car with white interior.

That is a sunroof , but he can not wait to pull it out!

Nice find. Sport Satellites are cool!

Good score and thumbs up on the decision to leave it as a Satellite.
