New to FBBO.....

[Giorgio440]

Just checking in from England. I have a '69 Satellite, purchased last year and came with extensive history of it's life in the States before landing over here. Originally a 318, it is now a 440 / 727 / 3.55 car. I have owned many other American cars but this is my first Mopar and not sure why it took me so long!

A Satellite Spring Special giving it options of extra body side trim, bumper guards, vinyl roof etc. It's an Original California black plate car and still wearing the original dealer license plate frames. 440 RR engine, 727 and 8 3/4 Sure Grip axle out of a GTX. The 440 was put together by Beyer Racing Engines in NE. A very small example of the 440 specs: bored 0.40 over, Keith Black pistons, re-worked 906 heads, re-worked Holley 750 cfm 4160 carb, dyno'd at 365 hp and 395 torque at the wheels. Car came with a big folder of paperwork and history and a trunk full of trophies. It has had an older repaint around 26 years ago and still looks awesome.
