I had a buddy many years ago who owned a 1966 Satellite 'Vert. He had a poly 318 and an automatic transmission. The interior was mint, the body was mint as well and it was light yellow or pale whatever you want to call it but it had a white top and interior. We picked up chicks with that car any time we felt like it, LOL. He sold it and I wish I had pictures of it. The only thing I don't like about this car here are the tail pipe tips. They are not stock and actually, for me detract from the other hugely positive features of this car. If it were my car, I would have that removed and have installed turned down exhaust tips dumping right under the back bumper. But, that's just me. Oh, before I forget...I was in Washington State not long ago and just after crossing the border I spot a 1966 Coronet 2 door HT sitting in a lot with some other cars and trucks. The place is guarded like Fort Knox. Must be a transition depot or whatever but the 2-door is really in great 'looking from afar condition. It has the V-8 badge on the fender but no side chrome trim and actually looks like an unfinished project car but I couldn't and didn't want to get too close to that barbed wire chain link fence. By now, the car is most likely gone north across the border.

Not a bad car, it's got a Charger steering wheel. I like the power windows and a/c.
But what is up with the upper radiator hose?
Looks like it came from Bubbas school of upper and lower radiator hose grafting school. They should at least get the correct radiator, it would make the engine compartment look cleaner.

I totally agree about the exhaust tips and the REALLY unsightly upper radiator hose. I'd also completely replace the rest of the exhaust system when I removed those tips and I'd clean up all of the engine compartment wiring as well, but dang folks, those are REALLY easy things to fix while you're drooling over all of that beautiful silver and white!

As long as I keep feeding her lots of raw meat and keep her from seeing the U.P.S. Girl Tim, she's good to go!
