Actually the Satellite, GTX and Roadrunner were all born from the Belvedere. '65 for the satellite.. '67 for the GTX.. and '68 for the roadrunner.
Well I wish I had the cash and I would buy up all these satellites coming on market. Sry to see another one go.
So seniority goes satellite, GTX, then roadrunner... but I'm afraid to know how it goes on Roadrunner nest..Belvedere-based models included the higher trimmed Satellite, muscle car GTX and budget musclecar Road Runner. The name lasted through 1970 after which all mid-size models took the Satellite name.
Well I wish I had the cash and I would buy up all these satellites coming on market. Sry to see another one go.

nah, the gtx was only a roadrunner in 72...before that, as said before, the satellite was THE high performance car, then the GTX was released in 67...then the affordable hi-po car came in 68, the roadrunner...and before these cars were the max wedge polaras, darts, savoys, and belvederes...now those are cool (even though, pretty ugly )

Dola: which was kinda strange because it flipped. . .the Satellite Coupe became the no frills package in 73 and 74. (straight out of the dealer brochure).
Which kinda makes that car a bit more interesting. ..if you could find a Satellite Coupe with a big engine, it's heritage would be much more connected genetically to the original Roadrunners.
Weird.
