lookinh at buying a 68 satellite but got a couple questions

[bmxer]

First off I'm a sucker for 60's model cars but never owned an old Mopar. I thanking about buying a 68 satellite 4dr. Body has a small bit of rot in quarters already been cut out and comes with 2 new quarters. Has the slant 6 factory a/c and power steering runs and drives also all new brakes and hardware. I figured it would be v8 is it rare? Asking price is $2000 good deal or bad deal
Thanks nick

rare is not always desirable
it sounds like a 1200 dollar car..

Don't have pics I myself am not looking for rare just thought it might be having the slant 6 if I buy it it would get a 340 also not looking to make a show car just a driver

Don't know how many /6 Sattelites were made but it wasn't that many but imo, even one /6 Sattelite is too many. The car is a bit heavy for a 6 and so mileage vs a 318 wasn't that much difference. Also, the Sat is the upper trim level car in the Belvedere line so yeah, I would think one with a /6 is unusual but back then, you could get one just about any way you wanted it. A buddy had a 2 dr hardtop with a 318, 3 on the column and rubber floor mats and nothing else. It did look nice tho....

might be easier to find, and cheaper to build a 383
