Post by moparmike » Wed Mar 04, 2009 11:34 am

Hi all, I have found another 72 Satellite, I am going to buy it as it has black interior with buckets/console 150 mph dash etc. Here is the Vin # RP23G2G15293 what does it tell you abouth the car

Thanks,
Mike

72’ Satellite, 318, built in St Louis, sequential number appears to be missing a digit.

Thanks guys I will check it again I must have missed a digit when I wrote it down. I will take a picture of it and post on the week end the guy is selling it really cheap.

This is what shows up when I entered the VIN on Stock Mopars website:
RP23G2G15293
Body Type: R = Plymouth Belvedere/Satellite
Price Class: P = Premium
Body Type: 23 = 2 Door Hardtop
Engine: G = 318 150HP(net) or 155HP(net) 1-2BBL 8 CYL
Year: 2 = 1972

Looks like there may be a digit missing in the last build sequence

Thanks for all the help I am picking it up Saturday and will take some pictures, I am now thinking of giving this to my brother he took one look at it and now wants to turn this one into the Roadrunner clone as I still have the grill,emblems,and a 440 with tranny just sitting around, i just do not have a RR hood. Car is in to good of shape to use it as a parts car.
