VIN on '72 Satellite
Hi I am trying to start finding some information on my 1972 Plymouth Satellite. I think the right place to start would be trying to break down the VIN number. Does anyone have any info on how I can do that? Thanks

The vin has some info that will verify the motor and where the car was built. For any real info, you need to decode the fender tag on the inside of the drivers fender. And yes, some folks here can tell you everything about it. I can help you with the first 7 digits of the vin, but I dont have the codes for all the options.

OK thanks the VIN is RH23M2G107847. I'll look up the fender tag first thing tomorrow.

R = Plymouth Belvedere/Satellite
H = High 23 = 2 Door Hardtop M = 400 190HP(net) 1-2BBL 8 CYL 2 = 1972 G = St. Louis, MO, USA 107847 = 7846th Vehicle Post up a pic of the fender tag and it can also be decoded for you. |
Exactly:D

I think this is it. Hard to tell because it has been painted.

dude, thats sounds like a very nice car. and a big block too. man you can put a 440 right down onto that bad boy, with noe mods. awsome. or build the 400 very nicely.

Yes it is a very nice car but as you can see the previous owner repainted it and tried to make it into a roadrunner. It also has a 4 barrel instead of a 2 on it. Needs a little work to be a daily driver and can't wait to take it to school.

Needs a rear wing!:D Then again, everything needs a rear wing! I'm stuck in the 70's.
|
And maybe some roadrunner emblems also a beep beep horn.

Might as well put some big ol' meats out back, that would complete the Scotty look.

Dont forget the air-shocks for the improved mileage cause you're always going downhill!:D Nothin wrong with the "period correct" look. Some aluminum slots and Mickey Thompson 50's stickin out the sides would tie it together! My current bike project is a 53 custom rigid harley frame, raked with 6+ inches in the front forks and 18" apes and a 73 Shovelhead with a kick-only tranny. The goal is no flash and no billet, only what was available in 73 for a chopper. Like I said, period-correct.
