How can I find out which Satellite I am looking at and what to look for? I know this is a bb car with ac,pb,ps from what I can tell from the pictures I was sent. Seems like the emblem on the trunk should be closer to the edge than what it is?

Post up the VIN, or at least the first 4 or 5 digits of the VIN. Our numbers gurus will be able to tell from that what it is. Decklid emblems seem to be all over the board. Yeah, there were specific dimensions they were SUPPOSED to fall at, but on the production lines back then it seems like those were SUGGESTED dimensions rather than required. :D

Does the guy have the build sheet or fender tag?

Does this front end look twisted or is it just me?

It's the way the pictures are taken.

If that rallye instrument cluster sitting in the back seat is original to that car, likely makes it an SSP, check the vin.

I agree it's a great color and will look great on my Sat. My friend wants me to clone it in a GTX,but I am thinking of keeping it a Satellite with a few changes I want.
