THANK YOU - I have a 65 Satellite 426-S - 4 sp - 3:91 posi - AM/FM with reverberator (remember those) - dark blue poly with blue interior.

Bought it in 1988 (I was 18) and was going to use it as a drag car until I found out what it was - Had the buildsheet decoded and it is now all apart for a complete resto back to original

I always wondered how many were made.

In 1970,

One of my father's employees at his Gas Station / Service Center had
a 65' Satellite (Dark Blue Poly) 426-S w/Automatic, with factory installed
4.10 gears.

He bought the car for $300 with about 50,000 miles on it.
It was a very quick car.

Raced it in 1970.....completely stock,,,,,,,13.85's @ 101 MPH

Anyone have a pic of a convertable hemi race car? Don't remember seeing a 65?

Tommy D,

Mopar did not produce a 65' Race Hemi in a convertible.

The 426-S (Street Wedge) was available in the Satellite (convertible) or the Belvedere II (convertible).
