On "My Car Story" we're at the Carlisle Events in Carlisle PA on 7-15-23.
We're looking at a 1966 Plymouth Satellite in Forest Green Paint. The car comes with the 426 CI Hemi V8 engine, and a 4 Speed manual transmission.
The car's Owner is Randy Cook. Randy’s had this car since 2015. He and his Brother when they were kids would go watch cars race at the drag strip and he remembers seeing one just like this car. He saw this one in 2015 with a person who has a restoration shop, and made a deal to trade for his car and some cash, and here is his Mean Green Machine.

Gotta love a hemi! Nice car. Thanks Lou
Especially, when powering a "refrigerator!!!" Absolutely love the 1966-67 B-bodies. BEAUTIFUL CAR!
Hi John, "Gotta love a hemi!" I agree. You're welcome, Lou
To me that is one of the best looking Plymouth body styles! And a Hemi with 4 speed, he's got a keeper!
High praise :-)
High HP and a real old school 4sp=Magic! Thanks Randy and Lou.
NICE CJ Design :-) You're welcome.
When I was a kid we had a relative that had a '67 Satellite with a 318 V8. That was a nice car. It was silver-blue in color. Thanks for posting Lou! Have a blessed day!
Hi Gerry, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your relatives car :-) Thank you for viewing, sharing, you're welcome, blessings received, and wishing you a blessed day too, Lou
This 1966 Plymouth Satellite 426 Hemi looked spectacular! The combination of Forest Green on the body and Citrus Green on the interior is great. When he opened the hood and they both laughed that said it all! Ha ha. The ride was excellent, and the engine sounded great; but that acceleration was brutal! Best regards, Lou!
Hi Jaime, Happy to read this one is "spectacular!" :-) Thanks for sharing, and glad you're along for the ride, Lou
Took the words out of my mouth. Fantastic, understated and wonderful.
The predecessor to the Roadrunner.

Hi J's Car Channel, Happy to read you enjoy the "incredible" car :-) Lou
No matter what your favorite make of car is, you gotta love those mid 60's to early 70's HEMI Mopars. Thnx for sharing Lou. See you in Chicago.
Hi Felix, "you gotta love those mid 60's to early 70's HEMI Mopars" I agree. You're welcome and when you see me at a car show make sure to say hello and we'll go find some fun cars together, Lou
Beautiful car, sounds great, looks great, Randy loves it. No wonder! Thanks for showing this one to us. And I might add, better looking by far than anything I’ve seen during the last 20 years. In the 60s and 70s, we bought cars because they were BEAUTIFUL, among other reasons.
Hi John, Happy to read you enjoy the looks and sounds of this car :-) You're welcome, Lou
I always loved the roofline and body style of these cars! And the 426 Hemi and 4 speed make it the ultimate Plymouth. The hood ornament is also a touch of class. Thanks Lou for sharing!
HI mrgrandprix fourspeed, Happy to share "ultimate Plymouth" with you. You're welcome, Lou
Amazing hemi mopar! Just the perfect look with forest green, magnum 500s and of course the 426. Congrats to Randy. Thanks Lou for the excellent video.

Hi Jeff, Happy to share this "straight edged" beauty with you. Always appreciate your support. You're welcome and thank you, Lou
That is a great video; what owner joy! Congrats to Randy, I was smiling ear to ear as well
Hi Steve, Happy to read " I was smiling ear to ear as well" :-) Lou
What a treat!!! Beautiful car!!! This combination is an absolute MASTERPIECE!!! THE year after this beauty came out, Richard Petty had his most successful year in stock car racing Driving a car similar to this, but set-up for racing.... Many other types of competition forms used these engines.... Just a BEAUTIFUL reminder of when Chrysler cars were the ones to beat in so many types of competitive comparisons...

Love Satellites, Valiants, Belvedere, Sport Fury’s! I feel like some Plymouth models are very underrated. Great one Lou! Thanks!😊
Hi LZ, Happy to read you "Love" this one :-) You're welcome, Lou
I bet the engineer's were smiling when they designed the HEMI!😊
I agree :-)
Goodday Lou,
Great car, great story, great bloke that Randy even his accent being true blue red & white American.
Love to be in a Aussie pub with Randy & you having yarns all about Hemi's.
Just yesterday I took out my 6 cylinder 245 Hemi out for a drive after 3 & half months away over winter.
Randy summed it up beautifully.
" The joy you feel driving these cars"
That is the best explanation when I try to explain to other why I hold onto Samantha beautifully said.
That was moving that drive & it is so nice seeing the neighbourhood beautiful houses, manicure lawns it is a real treat, Kellie loves the background scenery.
2 Hemi's in 10 days keep them coming Lou, you are a real treat thank you so much for this great video.
Cheers
Louis Kats your number 1 Fan in Australia.
👍 🙂 🇦🇺 🇺🇸
Goodday Louis, Glad to read you enjoy this car & story. Happy to read you had your car out. NICE! Fun to share the cars with you. You're welcome. Thank you for being my # 1 Fan in Australia, Lou
I love the body lines of those cars!😁👍
Happy to read you "I love the body lines of those cars!" :-)
What a beauty! This is the one that started my love for muscle. My father used to have a white over black 66 Satellite with the 426 named "Ole White Lightning" only his had a push button automatic trans. What a machine it was indeed. I remember the power slamming my little ass in the seat like it was yesterday.
Hi Dave, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Fathers car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
ever since I’ve watched the viper car story I’ve been infatuated with all the old school muscle I wasn’t there for. It’s shown me that even if these cars aren’t as fast as the newer car models they sure as hell look and sound 10x more fun to drive. This entire UA-cam channel is more entertaining than most new shows
Hi Fodder, Happy to read you're enjoying the Channel :-) "even if these cars aren’t as fast as the newer car models they sure as hell look and sound 10x more fun to drive." I think you're right. I'm glad you're along for the ride, Lou
Funny to think how plain the initial muscle cars were and just 2 yrs later they went totally wild😊
...and yet both plain and wild look great today :-)
Another great Mopar Lou. A friend of my Grandpa had a 67 Satellite convertible he bought new. Had a 426 Hemi.-yellow in color with white roof. His was a torqueflite console shift.
Hi Brad, Happy to read "Another great Mopar" :-) Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Grandpa's Friends car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
My husband and I dated in this car . Was wonderful listening to it run...
Hi Diane, Happy to read this car brings back good memories of your car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing. Hope you see many cars on this Channel you enjoy! Please Subscribe, and hit the "bell" so you can see all the cars when they are uploaded on this UA-cam Channel, Lou
Hi Lou, they just keep comming, the great lot of cars that you see, what a great job you have.great video.👍👍.
Hi Philip, My pleasure sharing cars with you :-) Glad you're along for the ride, Lou
The 426 is an American tour-de-force!..But even the smaller-block engines offered by Chrysler, back then, were awesomely powerful. A friend of mine bought a 1968 Dodge Dart, with the 340 4bbl, 4speed. It too was forest green...it moved out like a green lightning bolt!...My buddy out ran a State Patrol car one evening...I was in the passenger seat, and nearly had to change my underwear after that episode!...Randy seems like a really good guy, deserving of this land-rocket! Great video, Lou.
Hi Curbozer Boomer, Happy to share this "land-rocket!" with you :-) Thanks for sharing the "green lightning bolt!'" story too, Lou
another bullshit story
Beautiful car! Love that era Mopars. We had a '66 Chrysler Newport in that same color. The design and engineering at Chrysler at that time was top notch. Sounds like it has an aggressive cam in that HEMI.
HI architype one, Happy to read "Beautiful car! Love that era Mopars" :-) Glad to read you had a fun car too, Lou
Awesome car
My boss has a 4 spd ‘66 Hemi Satellite. I have a short video on my UA-cam
It’s restored now,but it’s early life was spent as a mini tubbed race car from upstate NY.he’s owned it for a few decades
Thx Lou,always a great video you present 👍
Hi John, Happy to read you enjoy this "Awesome car" :-) Glad to read you Boss has a cool car too! Thank you for the kind words on the video. My pleasure sharing with you, Lou
Absolutely gorgeous.. love it love it, love the mid 60’s B-bodies but the Hemi 4-speed sure puts it over the top for me. Great find Lou !
Hi Richard, High praise :-) Lou
Not to many 66 Satellites came with the 426 Hemi. Boy did this one sound beautiful. Thx Lou!
Happy to read you appreciate the rarity of seeing this car with the 426 Hemi. Glad to read you enjoy the sounds :-) You're welcome BradyDog.
Perfect color model engine total package
High praise :-)
What a nice car I would have it out every weekend as long as the weather is nice no rain on this baby thanks Lou
Hi Allen, Happy to read you enjoy this "nice car" :-) You're welcome, Lou
Thanks for that one Lou, really exciting to see the identical year and model to my own car barring mines Citron green with the console shift auto. I just love the 66 satellite shape
Hi lyonheart84 exotic fruit growing, Happy to read "really exciting to see the identical year and model to my own car barring mines Citron green with the console shift auto. I just love the 66 satellite shape" :-) Thanks for viewing and sharing, Lou
@@loucostabile BTW the correct name for the interior colour that year is CITRON not citrus 😁
Beautiful MOPAR for life . 👍🏻💯🇦🇺⛽️
High praise :-)
What a cool ride. Mopar classic.

Hi Slack, Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Nice car LOU, love it a MOPAR fan, keep going Lou
Hi Ollie, Happy to read you "love it" :-) I appreciate your encouragement, Lou
Seems like it moves out pretty good.😵💫🥳
I agree.
Beautiful car Lou.
Happy to read you enjoy the looks of this one Leroy :-)
Absolutely Heaven MOPAR 👍🏻💯
High praise :-)
I saw one of these cars once at a Concours event, but it had a front bench seat and a column mounted automatic shifter and an add-on tach. I was surprised, but then later I ran into some Superbirds and Daytonas with column-mounted automatics. And then this car also has a close-ratio 4-speed!
Imagine that. All that power and a non-power single circuit master cyl. I guess it would have been pretty easy to add a midland power brake booster and hide it.
Hi Automated Electronics, Happy to read this brings back memories of the car you saw :-) Thanks for viewing and sharing. Lou
Класне авто! Цікава історія про придбання авто! Дякую!
Hi Сергій, Happy to read "Cool car" and glad to read you like the story too. You're welcome, Lou
Wow. Wish and wonder what it would be like.😊😊
I think it would be FUN!
Great offering and car. I love Mopars.
Hi Glen, Happy to read "Great offering and car. I love Mopars." :-) My pleasure sharing this car with you, Lou
Thank you, Lou.
Satellite or Coronet. Loved both .
Big dog here!@@loucostabile
With the mighty Hemi? Nice.
Just the way we like it :-)
Thanks!
Hi Unix Badger, SUPER THANK YOU FOR THE SUPER THANKS! I appreciate your support, Lou
THEY SAY THE 426 HEMI WAS RATED 425 H.P. BUT WAS ACTUALLY CLOSER TO 500, AFTER READING THAT I AGREE,
I RODE IN A 66 CHARGER 426 4 SPEED ABOUT 145 TO 150 MPH IN TEXAS WHEN I WAS IN THE ARMY STILL PULLS
HARD AT THAT SPEED, AMAZING ENGINE. YOU SHOULD HEAR THE ENGINE SOUND AT THAT SPEED WITH THE 2-4 BARRELS FLOORED,
LIKE NO OTHER ENGINE.
Hi David, Sounds like a fun time in Texas :-) Lou
BULLSHIT......hp was 425 gross with bare engine on a dyno.....with belts, air filter, and muffler removed. When all that back on put back on horsepower was only 350 NET. After 1971 all cars were rated net, and the 426 was listed at 350 hp in the MOPAR parts catalog. Any 2024 Dodge 5.7 puts out more hp at 375 net.
Despite it being green in color, modern-day "greenies" will hate this car for all the reasons we love it - manacing sound, incredible acceleration, an uncaring attitude towards fuel consumption, pure intimidation with all the 426 badging to wannabe drag racing challengers and - most importantly - so much fun for the driver that you can't wipe the smile off your face. I think the owner needs a license plate surround bracket that says, "MY GREEN AGENDA."
Hi Charles, Thanks for sharing. I liked and agree with "so much fun for the driver that you can't wipe the smile off your face" :-) Lou
Randy, With full deference to Dirty Harry, a man's gotta' know when to count his blessings - all 426 of them! 😉👍
Nice !
YOU DEFINATELY NEED A DUAL MASTER CYLINDER FOR YOUR SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.
BEAUTIFUL CAR, I DROVE A NEW 67 ONE, RED, BLACK STRIPES ON THE HOOD AND TRUNK, 440, AUTO,
VERY IMPRESSIVE TO SAY THE LEAST, LOVE THE COVES IN THE SIDE, MOPAR OR NO CAR.
Hi David, Thank you for sharing a safety tip. Glad to read you were able to drive a fun car too, Lou
Lou, for the future, there are plenty of non-residential areas in Carlisle and surrounding to go and stretch these cars out.
Please see me next year and show me. I get there Wednesday night.
Ok. If I don't make it, at least go out onto Rt 11 Carlisle Pike heading towards Mechanicsburg. Better yet, behind the Harley dealer on the right heading into Mechanicsburg there's a long straight industrial road.
It looks great, the engine sounds strong too. One of a select group Chrysler products without the characteristic reduction starter whine everybody recognizes, the 66-69 4 speed cars used a specific direct driving starter. It’s a big job to chase down all the parts you would need if anything is missing. The flywheel and starter are unique to 66 only, and the bell housing is 66-67 only. I have personal experience.
Hi James, Happy to read you enjoy the looks and sounds of this car :-) Thank you for sharing your experience, Lou
Morning Lou,
Just wanted to point out, The Rapid Transit System came about in 1968-69. At the time of this Satellite, Plymouth was out to Win your Heart Over. Hope this helps? Thank you.
Morning Wayne, Thanks for sharing. You're welcome, Lou
I approve. 👍
:-)
Nice 😀
Hi Michael, Happy to read "Nice" :-) Lou
God Bless America
Well said.
That's one sweet Satellite, is the starter an aftermarket install? Sure didn't have that distinct Chrysler gear reduction starter sound.
Hi classrockin, Happy to read you enjoy this "sweet" car :-) Hmmm, not sure about of the starter is factory or aftermarket, Lou
Me gusta el carro soy fanático de los mopar; saludos.
Hi Jose, Happy to read you like this car :-) Lou
With a car such as this, it's not about miles per gallon, its about SMILES per gallon.
Hi J Ramirez, Exactly! Lou
I had one with a 426 wedge auto same color
Happy to read you had a fun car too :-)
Lou love your vids..are the hemi cars fast?
Daniel, Happy to read you love the vids :-) Technology improves, so a V6 today can produce WAY more HP and WAY better breaking then cars back in the late 1960's & 1970's....HOWEVER these cars are time travelers, and the Hemi's are special, and yep, still pretty quick for today. Lou
12:10 then there is a random Charger 😂❤️
...and just the way we like it.
@@loucostabile ❤️❤️❤️
The people who like these cars are getting older , limiting the rise in price
Thanks for sharing.
She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
A-faster than the speed of light
Apologies to the B-52s
Thank you for sharing.
I wish I fill up distilled water in the battery...
Thanks for sharing a tip.
What's not to like??
I like it :-)
the fact that real SAE NET horsepower is only 350, 25 less than a 2023 5.7 Dodge at 375 net..these old cars were grossly OVER RATED in the horsepower department....they were never "under rated to fool insurance" as claimed.
Heads up!! 1973 dodge charger 12:08
:-)
Ni car lou
Happy you like this one Darren :-)
Absolute🟢 Beauty
I I just saw something on the road that you as a fellow automotive nut will find interesting bizzare and completely ridiculous. A Maybach MINIVAN 😳
Hi Terry M, Happy to read "Absolute🟢 Beauty" :-) Maybach MINIVAN....Hmmm, didn't see that one coming? Lou
