  1. My first car was a 71 satellite with a 400 engine, and 2 barrel carter carb, and a 727 slapstick trans. We put a lot of work into that car trying to get it to pass smog. (Back then California required a smog cert on that year). We kept getting bad new carbs and the car would not pass the smog test. About 4 new carbs later we finally
    got a good carb, passed smog and I drove it for a few months. Until it threw a rod. It was a great first car, I bought it from a neighbor for $300. Paid for it with my own money I made working as a stock boy in the local mini mart gas station. Watching this brought back a lot of good memories.

  2. I had a 72 Plymouth Satellite Sebring Plus with a 383 from '70 fury police car I used to race with a steady 13-second quarter mile an occasional high 12 second. I just loved the fat round fenders and that big chrome bumper (40+ pounds worth) Mine came with a 383 auto from the factory blew that one and put in the cop car motor.

  3. Man look whoever’s operate in his motor trend right here. I ain’t doing very well job because we’ve seen all the shows already. What is the Woodward Ave., Pauline races that can you tell me that were you putting all that stuff because I seen it off of here

  4. I love how the Satellite turned out, especially since I have one, but it's a highly modified '72 "Resto-mod Road Runner" with a poked and stroked 440 that is now a 528ci tire frying beast! I grew up working on and riding in my brothers (who is 10 years older than I am) '71 383 powered Road Runner and it has been my favorite car of all time ever since. I was into 4X4 trucks for many years but after helping my four kids buy, do any repairs, and teach them how to properly maintain their own car (or truck) I decided it was time for dad to buy myself something I had always wanted, so I found a rust free '72 440 Road Runner from Arizona and bought it to build dad's (and now grandpa eight times over!) full scale "Hot wheels" car! I've watched the episode about Freiburger's favorite RR at least a dozen times when I'm bored!
