Re: 1965 Plymouth Satellite '426-S Street Wedge'
I met Steve Reasbeck at Beaver Springs two years ago. He's a real good guy running some old Hemi stuff, NASCAR rods, TRW slugs, etc.

Re: 1965 Plymouth Satellite '426-S Street Wedge'
Hi Paul, I saw the link to this discussion on another site and joined up to see if you could help me out with any info. I was wondering if you or anyone else has any breakdown on 1965 Dodge Monacos. These cars are not really a big deal to most, but the reason I ask is I have what is believed to be the only '65 Monaco in existence with a 426 Street Wedge and a 4-speed tranny. Yes,this a factory built car with a copy of the build tag from Chrysler Historical showing it came this way. I am trying to find out if this was the only one built or if not,how many others came this way. Thanks in advance for any and all help you can offer.

Paul, I believe this '65 Coronet hardtop started life off as a street wedge...

Re: 1965 Plymouth Satellite '426-S Street Wedge'
Hemi Moose...thanks for posting the old pic of mine a page or two back.
I bought that car for $1000 my senior year of high school.....in March of 1969. I had fallen in love with those cars back in 1965 when I first saw them run at old PID, at a NASCAR Grand Stock event. In any event, mine had a 273 with an auto when I got it. In 1971 I got a hold of a Hemi from a stock car buddy, and it's been this way ever since. I think the shot you posted was taken around 76 or 77. Jim...thanks for the kind words. That Monaco: C body factory four speed. Now, that is a rare piece. A local collector has one of the very few (I don't know how many were produced) 1965 Chrysler 300L (last letter series) with a 426 wedge four speed. A buddy of mine had a 65 Sport Fury 426 wedge four speed. Rare bird, indeed. That one is a keeper. Last edited by Steve1118; 10-05-2012 at 11:19 AM. |
