Hellcat Powered Plymouth Sport Satellite Is A True Eye-Catcher

Plymouth Sport Satellite from 1970 is not the first car that jumps to mind while searching for a place to put a Hellcat motor, but that's precisely what we've got here.

Weaver Customs, a firm in Utah that went to great lengths to remodel and modernize this Plymouth Sport Satellite, left no room for doubt in the process. 

The automobile is powered by a 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 engine, as previously stated. This motor normally produces 707 hp, but Weaver Customs thought that wasn't enough and upgraded it to 900 horses. The workshop had to make a unique bonnet for this motor, which was mated to a six-speed gearbox and a Ford 9-inch back axle.

The outside of the Sport Satellite has also undergone extensive remodeling. Most of the body parts, including special front and rear bumpers, a stylish lip spoiler at the back, and air intakes in place of two of the regular headlamps, have been handcrafted from metal sheets. The car has a frightening appearance and costs a lot of money to put it.

Moreover, the vehicle has also been fitted with Scotts Hotrods suspension and updated Wilwood brakes, ensuring that it can brake as well as it sprints. The inside has also been completely redone, with a billet pistol grip shifter, a handmade steering wheel, one-of-a-kind seats, and a whole new dash.

Curiously, this Plymouth has been possessed by the same individual since 1973, and it should cheer them up for years to come in its new guise.
