    Putting '73 BBody Overflow Bottle on a '72?

    I tried this before and failed (I was trying to bolt it directly to the radiator support). According to some recent photos I found, it is attached to something else, but I can't determine exactly how and where. And with a shroud, power steering, and that battery tray looks near impossible...

    Odometer Accurate but Speedometer Not Accurate

    Re: 1972 Satellite Sebring Plus. I sent off my instruments to have the ammeter gauge converted to voltmeter (and general gauge restoration). Now I find the speedometer is nice and steady but reads too fast. The odometer evidently is right on the money, so changing the speedo pinion gear won't...

    Do Backlight Louvers Serve a Function?

    Besides looking cool (to some of us) and making it more difficult to clean the glass, what purpose/advantage do the louvers serve? Thank you.

    Does a Factory Stock '71 383 Road Runner (no A/c) Have a Radiator Shroud?

    And what style cooling fan comes stock on a non-a/c '71 383 Road Runner? Thank you.

    Was a 400 V-8 available in a base 1972 Satellite?

    No rallye dash (see speedo) and it has the 400 CID engine. Just wondering if it really was a stock powerplant? Thank you.

    Rear Windows Don't Roll Down?

    The guy in this '72 Satellite video states the rear windows don't roll down. Is he correct? Thank you.

    Was Front Sway Bar an Option on Satellite Sebring Plus '71-'74?

    Just wondering how one could equip a Satellite similar to a Road Runner by placing an order with a dealer and adding optional equipment. Thank you.

    1971 vs 1972 Strobe Stripes: Is it just me?

    My parents purchased a Bahama Yellow 1971 Road Runner with the black strobe stripes. In 1972 they changed 'em. I can't explain why, but I always cringe at the '72 change and prefer the '71. And it bugs me somewhat because they are so similar. Anyone else share or does not share my preference?

    Drip Rail Chrome: Vinyl Roof vs No Vinyl Roof

    I have read that the drip rail chrome is different on vinyl roof BBodies '71 to '74 (I have a '72) than vehicles with a painted roof. I guess I'm kind of a "doubting Thomas" (hard for me to picture factory making up two different sets). Has anyone ever measured them out to find out if there...

    "South of the Border" 1971 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus

    Local Mexican mechanic here in La Paz, BCS, Mexico just gave me a call this AM and told me his SSP was back from the paint shop (GF7 Sherwood Green). I ran right over to check it out: Highlights: 318 V8, column shift 904 automatic, bucket seats (no console), clock, inside hood release, LH...

    Satellite Sebring Plus Available with Buckets and Column Shift?

    Were the 71-72 SSP available with rallye dash, bucket seats, and column shift automatic? Was there a way to order a factory front stabilizer bar for a new SSP like the Road Runner used as standard equipment? Thank you.

    1972 Road Runner Grille: What did Plymouth say?

    Most everyone I see is a big fan of the '72 Road Runner grille. I was wondering what Chrysler/Plymouth had to say about it back then? Is anyone privy to literature, announcements, advertisements, promotions, commercials, or posters from back then that specifically promote/explain/praise the new...

    Do the '71-'74 Bucket Seats Have a Recline Adjustment?

    While cleaning up my '65 Barracuda bucket seat tracks (see photos) I found today there is an incline/tilt adjustment as well as a fore/aft adjustment built right in from the factory. Except for the six-way adjustable driver's seat option, do our BBodies afford any such adjustment? Thank you.

    Proper Lug Nuts for '71-'74?

    Here we have two different style lug nuts on the '72 Satellite Sebring Plus. Both fit the stud with 1/2"-20 threads. However, one style uses a 3/4" lug wrench or socket and the other uses a 13/16" lug wrench or socket. What is the factory correct fastener? First photo shows four 13/16" and one...

    Door "Cracking"?

    I found these four comments on a '71-'72 Road Runner forum and I am not even sure what they are talking about, not my experience anyway: "Ok, I'm curious, on doors, is a crack in the metal by the mirror common? I'm guessing maybe so? Fatigue from weight of door?" "Extremely common" "every 71 B...
