Hey Hemi Moose, have you ever seen a photo of a 65 Plymouth SS car converted to an altered wheelbase car and the turned into a roadster called The Satellite? It belonged to an old, deceased friend of mine and the only time I ever saw the car it had been turned into a doghouse in someones back yard.

Can't say I've heard of that one before, but there was a white '64 Race Hemi Plymouth Belvedere called 'The Satellite' but it was restored.

Here's a factory photo of the fiberglass parts they used back then on the 1965 AWB cars they built...it all weighed only 80 pounds.

The '65 Melrose Missle car also went through the "metamorphisis" of SS to A/FX to roadster. Cecil Yother says he still has the car,, I'd like to see it and photograph it if I can. Hopefully, I'll run into Cecil next month when the swap meet season kicks off up here. See Hemi Moose's post # 81.
