Strange seeing this post, because in Wichita Kansas, (I do not remember if it was I or II), but in 1975 a kid bought a silver 67 belvedere with a hemi engine that had been blown, we took it over to my place and he bought a 318 from me and we installed it into the car. I moved to Texas shortly after that and lost touch with him and his car. But possibly someone in Wichita knows about the silver 67 with the HEMI badges and vin that had a 318 in it? If not, maybe they still have a silver 67 with a 318 in it not realizing that the car is an actual HEMI car and not just dressed up with fake badges.

I remember meeting a fella named Richard Garland here in NC back in the 80s that had bought and redone a gold 67 hemi satelite. All the literature claimed a GTX was the only way to get a hemi so I questioned it. Apparently the "numbers" were in order and it was the real deal. Any non GTX/Roadrunner 68 or 69 hemicars known to exist? Did any cop cars ever come with a hemi?

Yes Galen still has that car. The gold Satellite mentioned still exists as do several other 67 Hemi Satellites including one which is a white Pilot car, 4 speed convertible it was sold at Barrett Jackson a couple years ago. I'll be updating the site to include the 67 Hemi Satellites once I have all of the info in order.

---

There's a local guy here that has one of the 67 Hemi Satellite Hardtop's.
I can't remember if his is an auto or a 4-speed.
The car needs a full resto as it was a race car early in it's life.
If memory serves me right the car is Turbine Bronze color.


Here's a pic of one of the other cars he has, you might recognize it.

Never seen the 66, have a VIN#?

My father ordered it new- here is the info:

1966 Plymouth Belvedere II 4 door sedan, forest green metallic with citron gold cloth interior, drum brakes, light package, foam seat padding, wheel covers, drum brakes, manual steering, wood grained steering wheel, 4 speed, am radio with rear speaker. The car was ordered by Franklin Motors, Wyckoff NJ on 3/22/66, and built almost immediately in St Louis, Missouri. It arrived at Wyckoff on Thursday, 4/7/66.

It had 180,000 miles on it when it disappeared 7/4/80

I've spent YEARS trying to locate it: old insurance cards, old registrations, copy of police report (old records supposedly destroyed), etc.

All I can say is that it did exist (I lived with it for the first 10 years of my life): have some pics, but nothing that really puts it all in one pic.

I don't know the year of this one. I took the pictures at a cruise night in Wyckoff,NJ. I spoke to the owner at another local show and he's really a nice guy and the car is all original.

---

It's a 1966. Another one like this (Mauve Metallic), but a Satellite, was sold new at Franklin Motors there in Wyckoff, NJ.

Very nice car and makes regular rounds at many Northern NJ cruises.

There were more 67 Hemi Satellites than people are currently aware of. I don't want to post numbers until I have a firm number, for conversation purposes there are less than 10 known total, somewhere around 5-6 cars.

---

That's basicly what he was saying, four 4-speed and one or two automatic cars.

Thanks.

There is a 67 BelvedereII 4 speed around here. It is still actively raced. It was turned into a race car not too long ago. I remember seeing the chassis getting certified at a points meet I was at in the 90's. No doubt it is legit. I think 1 of 2 w/ gearbox comes to mind?

Another confusing aspect to all of this is that the Street Hemi 67 Belvedere II cars (RH23J7) often get confused with the Race Hemi 67 Belvedere II cars (RO23J7). Are you sure it's not a Race car you saw? Do you have a photo of the VIN#?

Scott,
Jim ownes the Judy Lilly car, the 4 speed one, I am the one who bought the auto one from Bill, the gentleman who worked for Team Viper.
The original owner who raced it was a gentleman by the name of Jim Issac, a super nice guy, who was very helpful with the history of this car.

I haven't seen that picture before, but that looks like the same one, it now has a flat hood with no hood scoop. If you have any more info on it, I would be interested.

Thanks

I think that statement confuses people ever more.

The 1967 WO and RO cars were NOT race Hemis but rather street Hemis with bigger carbs. Chrysler's intent with those cars was to create a package car that potential buyers could better relate to with what they could go to the dealership and buy to drive on the street. These were the package cars that had the least modifications to them than any other package car vs. the street cars avaialble to the regular buyer.

The intent was for these cars to be raced in Stock Eliminator class but for some reason they were moved to Super Stock (probably because of the "cheater" carbs) where they were not at all competitive.

'67 RO and WO cars came with Street Hemi carbs. The factory data sheet that was printed before the cars were made stated 4139 & 4140 '66 carbs, but most likely all came with 4139 & 4343 '67 carbs. Don't go by Galens white book, it list info from the data sheet, not what has been found on '67 SS cars.
The 4345 & 4346 'cheater' carbs were for just what they were called, for cheating or match racing. They are not class legal.
The '67 Super Stock cars were never built for Stock, only Super Stock. They will not fit into Stock. Like the 426/425hp '64 aluminum Max Wedge cars, they fit below the minimum lbs/HP break for A/Stock.
The only Super Stock package Mopar made for Stock was the '66 D-Darts.
The '67 SS cars were not competetive because they ran in the same class as the '64, '65 and '68 Race Hemi cars, SS/B and SS/BA. It was a few years later when NHRA changed the weight breaks that put the '67s in SS/D, the '65 in SS/C, the '64 in SS/B and the '68 in SS/A.

I've seen two '67 Belvedere II Hemi cars. The green one Scott owned and the blue one from the Atlanta GA area.

---

They all came with regular old 66/67 Street Hemi carbs, in fact the "Cheater" carbs weren't even manufactured or available until after the run or RO/WO cars was finished.


*The blue 67 Hemi 4 speed BelvedereII car from Atlanta belonged to Steve Simmons
