I don't have a whole lot of info yet but it appears to be a re-paint/ older resto. 318 wide block running condition unknown as of yet. The interior is lttle faded, but intact. I know it's not much to go on, but what's the ballpark fellas ?

8-10k?

Looks like it needs a new front bumper.

Maybe as much as 12k if it's REALLY clean.
 
It might be a bit easier once you have more pics and a bit more info on it's running/or not,condition. Have you seen the car or thinking of buying it sight unseen?
I just looked at the pics again, in that rear shot it looks like the lower rear quarter might be breaking out.

It's an estate car, so the assumtion is it does run, or would take minimal work to make run. The pics of the engine compartment (which were too big to post) show a dual master cylinder and an orange box so I believe it was driven in the not too distant past. My impression (like yours) is that it's probably a 20 footer and definately requires a visual. I'm much more familiar with '68-'70 values and really didn't know where these cars would peg.
 
Nice choice

That Satellite looks a lot like my 65 coronet 500 convertible when I bought it. Older repaint, nice original interior, a decent original car with a fresh rebuild on the 318.... factory A/C car too. I gave 11K.
Since then I have block sanded and buffed the paint, rechromed a few parts and upgraded some parts and pieces, Dual exhaust, a set of tires and lots of TLC and detailing.
I have driven the car over 7000 miles now, including long distances to Daytona Beach and Carlisle Pa, with no mechanical issues.
The car runs smooth on regular pump gas and pulls down 18-20 mpg.

If your looking for a great cruiser then you will love that Satellite. If you can get in it for 10K or less..... GREAT DEAL...!​
