- Hello, I am a Mopar loyalist from Maine. As a beginner, I remember looking over the dash of my dad's 68 Coronet. I thought it was so cool that my Uncle" Bullet's" 69 Satellite had a dash that was so similar. When my uncle retired in 81, He gave that car he bought new to my brother and I. That is the car in the avatar.( F-3 green) I am currently restoring it, albeit extremely slowly. I figured if I was going to learn how to repair them, a Satty would be a good one as it was not as valuable as a Bird. In 83, my brother got a 71 RR so the Sat pretty much became mine. In 88, I picked up a incredibly rusted RR convertible F-8 green. I gave 500 bucks for it and then learned someone had put in a thumbwheel am/fm in it that worked. It also had a fresh air hood on it but it is was not equipted from the factory. It is numbers matching but in extremely poor shape needing a ton. Sadly, Most of my time building both of these has been rust repair and replacement as opposed to cool stuff l
