Anybody know this car?

Just curious...I saw it on Car Domain a long time ago. It's still in Mich., but at a dealer, maybe selling on consignment

Re: Anybody know this car?
I know the car, and I know the guy selling it. We are not friends or anything like that, I know him from talking at shows, and of course I have a 71 Sebring Plus, so I had to look at that car. He lives about 10 minutes from me, the next city over to the east. Its a very solid car, nice! The guy is very nice, a mopar guy. I haven't seen the car in about 2 years, but if your serious, I'll go look at it, take photos you might want....I'm heading out of town tomorrow until Monday the 5th, so I can't get back to you until then. He might just have the car on consignment as you stated.

Re: Anybody know this car?
That's really cool that you've seen the car firsthand. I'm just curious as to whether it's a survivor car or restored. It looks too clean to be a survivor, but I doubt it's had a full blown resto. I'd really like to talk to the guy firsthand, rather than some guy selling it for him who only can't tell me ** and is just jacking up the price. I really kinda thought that the owner might be on the boards, as I saw that he has (or had) another Satellite 71 model that's built.
I appreciate the offer to check it out!! I'd have to find out a lot of info before determining my level of interest. I may just have to call the outfit that's selling it.
I really like the car as it reminds me of my first car. Mine was pretty much the same, but had a half vinyl top and it had green cloth inserts on the seats. I've looked for a duplicate over the years. This is the closest that I've seen, and looks like a nice car.

Re: Anybody know this car?
Oh well, just called the dealer. It's gone. Still advertised, but gone.
I sure do hope the new owner shows up on the boards! I think everyone that owns one of these cars should be here. I sure do learn a lot from the folks here.
Thanks for the offer to look at the car Brian.

Re: Anybody know this car?
Nice car, but not a survivor. Should be painted gray below the chrome trim line.

Re: Anybody know this car?
My 72 Satellite had the lower trim but was single tone all over. I got it from my dentist who bought the car new at Marietta Dodge. I never remember it being two toned, but of course I was probably not paying much attention to it till 80 or so. Mine was a Satellite Sebring...This car has an incorrest Sepbring Plus emblem on the rear, and then only Satellite on the side. That I'd guess would explain my cloth inserts on the seats. I swear that my car was wearing original paint.

Re: Anybody know this car?
Only the Sebring Plus received the silver paint below the trim.

If the badges on the car are accurate, it is a sebring plus.
