My 72 sattelite resto.

[72satteldog]

Well I have some before and after shots here, started tearing her down this fall and get into the garage a couple hours a week. Its cold here in minnesota so its tuff when we are in - numbers even with heat. Its not going to be a full frame off job as the car is in pretty decent shape, going for new paint, small amount of body work, which i will be needing some help from my mopar experts. Total clean and redo of undercarriage, and suspension, want to stroke out my already bored 30 over 440 also looking for new heads to compliment my hemi grind purple shaft cam. Will be including photos as i go, with questions along the way. lots of knowledge on this site. cant wait for rubber to road. 72 satteldog.

Wow!!!! Everything was looking good b4. Must be only minor issue's with the body.

 

[72satteldog]

ya, nothing major, but wanted the engine compartment to match the color of the car, plus the doors have some work to do to them and the fenders also

Looks good! Hopefully you won't find too many unexpected surprises during the teardown.

Welcome from a fellow Minnesotan! Looking forward to your progress. What colors were you thinking? My wife and nephew want me to paint my 71 black, but I'm leaning towards staying green.

 

[biginch=bigfun]

really nice! keep putting pics up.

 

[72satteldog]

Still flip flopping on color, want to stay with something similar with what i have, maybe a shade darker. You can never go wrong with black, great color on mopars, I want to keep my black striping though so, gunmetal or charcoal or something.

Have you considered Winchester Grey? I personally like the gunmetal, but check out Winchester as well if you havent.

im doing a gunmetal 71 rr right now. Very difficult to paint this color or blend this color on this body style(no solid body lines) if your doing it yourself. But they look great any color
