Maybe the paint fumes have given him a new courage to say the things he always wanted to say! :jester:

The guy delivered me the GTX last night, and here is what I know so far!

This car used to be....

GTX
440
4-speed
Yellow
Green Interior & Vinyl Top(ouch)
Built in St Louis

No Fender Tag so the rest is history!

 

[moparstuart]

Appears so, at first i expected it had been repainted but after close inspection the car was in fact yellow exterior, and green to pieces are still present along with factory green upper trim on the doors, dash and other small interior panels that are present. I still think maybe Stevie Wonder ordered it new! :cool:

I think you mean rough as Hell! lol :facepalm:

i know what ron payed for it , which was 1/2 of what i had offered and backed out on . I have no idea what ron got for it , it really wasnt advertised as for sale he was going to keep it and restore it years down the road . But it also was a huge project so he wasnt really sad to see it go .

 

[railrider]

Ah oh, I may have found my parts car....

 

[Basketcase]

that loks too good to be a parts car. If you dio part it....let me know if you wanna sell the front bumper!

It really is too good, but when I have a GTX body sitting here it is very tempting! I actually like this Sport Satellite. It may be rarer since most are now Road Runner or GTX clones. The car is 383 auto with air, buckets console, GTX type interior with woodgrain. The worst is the quarters, needs a full on the drivers side it has vinyl top rust just below the roof skin. Then the passengers needs at least a skin. It runs, but needs a tune up. If I part it out I will sell the rolling shell when done, maybe somebody else will build it up again later. Tempted to fix it though. I hate to say value makes a difference but if I restore this it is worth less than half of the GTX. Who knows maybe I will just turn the GTX and make this a driver.

 

[Basketcase]

yeah, common sense says to fix the one on better shape. and I agree that the Belveders and Sattelites, especially a Sport are rarer now. Think I'd do the SS myself.

 

[railrider]

It gets delivered tomorrow, I think I am going to give it a tune up for now, and play with it a little. I don't want to rush into anything to fast and regret it later. :hack:

That's a good idea.

 

[railrider]

This might be the best parts car ever! I am going to part it, although it is fixable
The GTX actually has a better unibody under it.
Plus I need a few things for my Road Runner.
The original engine runs good with no smoke. I am thinking about selling it complete
first if anyone is interested. No idea what a complete 69 383 is worth these days!

 

[george68hemirr]

very nice

 

[Basketcase]

yeah that does looks nice. those bumpers look sweet! :drool: you gonna keep those?
