The Plymouth Belvedere GTX from 1967 to 1974 was the muscle car that put on a tuxedo and hit the road. Starting as a gentleman’s luxury car with the heart of a beast, it featured a V8 engine powerful enough to wake the neighbors. In 1968, it got a makeover, swapping styles like a celebrity on a red carpet. By 1970, it faced an identity crisis, looking too much like its budget-friendly cousin, the Roadrunner. Despite a 1971 redesign, emissions and insurance rates hit harder than a speeding ticket, leading to its retirement in 1974.

The 1967 Plymouth Satellite, riding high on the Chrysler “B” platform, was the Belvedere’s snazzy cousin, sporting a new grill and flashy taillights to boot. Not content with just good looks, this mid-priced charmer offered a choice between a 2-barrel or 4-barrel carburetor for its standard 383 engine. Available only as a 2-door hardtop or convertible, it’s like the Satellite was saying, “Who needs doors when you’ve got style?” A hearty thanks to Gateway Classic Cars for the snazzy pics—they’re out of this world!
