What a great car. That 71-72 body was the best ever for Plymouth in my opinion and I think the silver on the bottom sets it off well. Didn't like the "new" look of the Sebring in 1973 when I was in the market., so I bought a 1973 Charger SE Brougham . Now my classic is a 1971 Challenger convertible (Indy Pace Car). If I had money, I would own all three. :) Thanks for the post.

A friend I know who is a Chrysler mechanic bought a 1971 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus coupe. It is a California car and was sold by Cooper Motors in Hayward, California. Color is evening blue with blue interior, center console, 318 V8 engine, tinted glass, air conditioning, rear window defogger (blower motor), AM/FM radio, canopy vinyl roof, Magnum500 wheels. Found the car in the driveway of a house in Hayward, California. The owner was not interested in selling the car, after awhile. The owner kicked the bucket and enquired about the car. He did wind up getting the car even though the estate was going through probate. He got all the paperwork on the car. Built in February of 1971. It was part of Cooper Motors inventory until June 1st, 1971. The car got treated to a cosmetic restoration. It got a new canopy vinyl roof, new tires, a complete deep cleaning, new trim rings for the wheels. Engine is in good shape and can whip a lot of horsepower.

That's a FINE example of a period original Satellite Sebring Plus. I wish my body-line trim would've been in decent shape and I would've put it back to two-toned tan/silver....but it was bad and I couldn't find any - even back in the late 90s. I love yours! Great job.

Sunroofs can be a pain once old age sets in. My 1998 Dodge 1500 pickup has one of the German sunroofs that were added to various new Mopars by a company that was based in Texas. Track belt was shot when I got the truck. Would like to replace it with a fixed glass rather than weld steel in to replace it. Liked the hand crank sunroof in my ‘73 Duster.

Cool hack--drilling the bolt to aid chain lubrication. Do you have a lathe in that nice shop? On that note, pretty cool to see that even folks with a nice shop like to wrench in the sun sometimes.

I had the opportunity to see the cars "trapped on the mountain," including the original Sebring Plus that inspired the car in this video. Rory doesn't make a big deal of it, but I want to mention that the site is absolutely inaccessible by any vehicle large enough to extricate the vehicle. The cost to save them would well exceed their value, and there's also the issue of the actual rights to do such a thing. It's not my place to divulge the details, but I can assure anyone with doubts that Rory would save the entrapped car if at all possible. And the reasons leading to it's mountain entrapment were not his will or fault. And yes, he was (is) the rightful owner. Shit happens, in situations such as this, one can pout and stamp his feet, or move on. Rory moved on, and as depicted, it was the right move. Enjoy the car!

Yeah, regardless whether you drive it, or park it, there's a good chance New England will eventually consume your car. I don't know if you see it this way, but the dreams we had about our first cars were, in themselves, worth all the trouble, even though they never materialized. RIP (rot in pieces), 1967 MGB.; hope parts of you are once more on the road somewhere. Next time I'm adding oil to the thirsty T5, I'll spill a little on the ground for ya. @@Fontanamotorsport EDIT: Of course, yours eventually did materialize. Just not how you planned it.
