Today Jared gets to spend a day working on his favorite muscle car ever made, the 1970 B Body Mopar, specifically his Plymouth Sport Satellite. Moving the car around has been a nightmare due to the broken front suspension, so it tackles it by installing his favorite suspension setup, the QA1 Tubular front end. He brings the suspension tech into the modern era! And he spends some time explaining what a shock does in the role of the suspension.

i think the patch and repair on the frame is the best idea, it keeps it more original like you'd want to begin with
I agree especially with the weight reduction of the QA1 parts. This is the type of projects that shine on this channel.
A new rail wouldn't have the same quality of metal either. And it could be either better or worse quality, neither good for the car. If you HAVE to do the left rail, you have to do the right rail too, because what happens in time, is you end up stressing either of the two (depending on which is weakest) and then you're back to square one. Patches are the way to go on such a small booboo.
Agreed-drill and patch the original.
Perfection is the enemy of good enough. Drill and patch. Drive and enjoy!
I agree with all the patch and repair. However, I think it should be done before installing new parts. A good repair will be undetectable. Drill the ends of the crack. Weld and grind to the original profile. Cut out any rust, patch and grind. Coat with Rockguard or similar and nobody will be able to see the repairs 🤩
Jared, I am with you repairing the original rail. A new rail looks just like what it is. A new repop part.
drill/weld patch and repair. The next 50 years it will live a much better life than the last 50 years. My 1968 Firebird was frozen in time since I started storing it in a garage in 1982.
14:48 'why put it all in if going to take out for paint?'
A good reason is then it all fits so not having to hack at freshly painted metal.
Do you paint a car before putting in new quarter panels?
Get it all done, and right so dont have to deal with stuff after its painted.
Professor Jared comes through again with such an easy-to-follow layman’s demonstration of the relationship between shocks and springs!!!
I'm really excited for this. My father had a 2 door Sport Fury (the smaller brother of the Satellite). We lost him a few years ago, but he would have loved seeing you bring this back to life.
I'm in the middle of a Mopar project myself at this time. A 1977 Dodge B300 based RV with a dually rear axle that I will be turning into a 1 ton dually extended cab flatbed. It will end up painted just like my grandpa's 1973 Dodge B200 van as a tribute to him and his legacy. RIP Grandpa.
I love the candid "confidently wrong" shots. Feels like we're in the shop with you learning right alongside. I conquered my first old vehicle restoration with a 40 year old motorcycle. Wish I could find some decent examples with confidence to do stuff like you're doing here!
I've known how shocks and springs worked for decades, but Jared's demonstration really put it into terms that would allow me to actually explain the concept to another normal human and it was great. I even actually better understand it myself now.
Build the engine first and get the car running. As a side note, my dad had a 1970 Dodge Coronet 500. As another side note, I had a 1970 Ford Thunderbird. Not exactly "muscle" cars but they were awesome and the T-bird floated down the highway. This build is bringing back some very fond memories.
70 Birds had a great rear. Front was fuglier than my 73!
Rebuilding 64 Thunderbird power bucket seats to put into my 64 Galaxie 4 door. Also replacing the solid fan with no shroud with an electric fan to keep it cool. In traffic. That's what I'm working on currently
In high school my friend had a 68 GTX 440 auto and it was the same body style as your Satellite Sport. I had a 66 GTO 389 4 speed.
My father has that exact 66 Goat with 389, awesome car.
I just did valve cover gaskets, plugs, and coil wires on my G500 recently. I really is all about the small victories - each one brings a car that much closer to perfection. I finally fixed the hydraulic top on my SL500 the other day - that was another small step for Rolling Stonks, giant leap for my confidence that I can resolve vehicle maintenance at home. It feels really great when you're able to fix something without making anything else worse. Can't wait to see this car restored! New suspension is going to be SMOOTH!
I'm glad to see this. I know you had said you were waiting on parts for the supra, so I'm glad to see a passion build. I wanna see a black hood and wide steelies 🤙
I agree the B body mopar cars are the best looking. I daily drive a 1972 charger. And if I may suggest the wilwood disk breaks kit all the way around I love it on my car
Thanks for asking. I'm almost done replacing "all" the front and rear bushings (suspension and steering), plus shocks and struts on my 99' 4runner limited with 275k miles. Since I'm replacing all the rubber bushings with urethane ones, my ride quality will be a little rough but so much tighter and handle better.
These QA1 K member kits that you've been using lately are so awesome.
I remember as a child watching movies with my dad, he was a handyman type, so for work he did everything from fixing cars to roofing (everything inbetween). We were always poor, so for vehicles we literally had whatever we could get. He was always fixing them and taught me my way around an engine. My first car was a 4 door 72 Nova lol.
Anyway back to movies, I remember watching vanishing point and thinking that 1970 Challenge was the coolest car ever and it's been my dream car ever since haha (yeah me and everyone else).
I also remember watching Smokey and the Bandit and wanting a 77 Trans Am as well haha.
Big block 1970 Plymouth 2 door Taxis ROCK !
If it is a forever car consider replacing rail, if not patch it
Make it a luxury rod build. A comfortable cruiser. Maybe build the motor/trans for gas mileage, but powerful enough to be fun. Put in A/C. There are too many all out sport builds (drag racing, autocross, etc.) You need something nice to cruise in.
Yes, something to cruise into Cars and Coffee with and just enjoy the journey with!
He has the Caddy
My favorite muscle car is a 1970 Pontiac LeMons Sport Convertible! My dad had one when I was learning to drive, used to drive it to school. Loved that car!
My dad, my son, and I have been working on a '67 GTO for years, and I suppose the sunk cost fallacy dictates at this point that it's my favorite.
I’m stoked for this! QA1 for the win and seeing you build a “clean cruiser”.
Something great for cruises like power tour or the war of the interstates. 😁
Drive as is....!!!! i learned after my heart attack that I wasn't going to live forever nor did I want to worry about chasing dust off my fresh paint job!
You can always tackle a body panel at a time while you're enjoying the hell out of driving a perpetual project!
Back in the late 90s i had a 72 sattelite 440 six pack that i drove to college my absolute favorite car ever but ruined front suspension and no money forced me to sell it im glad to see someone appreciate these cars and not make a roadrunner clone out of it thanks for the great conetent looking forward to seeing this build continue
18:09 That was smooth
Man do I just like your Videos!
Just some Nice wrenching, small talk and a bit of education.
Sooo relaxing!👍🏻
Back in the day, a neighbor of mine had a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner with a Starsky & Hutch paint job. That car was sick!!!
Jared, my first milestone will be....acquisition of a vehicle. I'm currently without a ride. I can do better spending monies putting fuel in the tank than getting a Lyft or Uber whenever I want to go somewhere.
I would inspect the cracked frame rail as much as possible. If it's not rusted out on the inside, the stop drills and a patch will work. Replace the rusted out body sections and also work on rebuilding the engine going back and forth between the two.
Thank you for the shock/spring/dampener lesson. I love learning. That was great!!!
6:10: When I saw that kluge repair, I couldn't help thinking the guy that did it had a mullet and a John Deer cap, slapping it together with a bolt he found lying around in his garage and calling it fixed. If you haven't already named your project car, I suggest something with Mullet in the title, like Mullet-Head or Mr. Mullet or something like that. "Business in the front and party in the back!" The project looks great, btw. As rusty as it is, it's actually amazingly un-rusty considering how those cars rotted away. I really like Mopars from that era too.
I love old Mopars but the doggo upstaging you is the best.
My absolute favorite Muscle Car is and was "The 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner and/or GTX" I had two and the first was a POS/learner and the second was a badass. I was Gutted when she was totaled back in 1986. Today, she could be fixed and upgraded but sadly I'm now disabled and I'm lucky to even be a homeowner. Nobody gets rich on disability. I would crawl through a half-mile of Cactus to have just one more, even a clone. Clone schmone, who cares?! I loved that car SOOO much. subbed today 4-19-24.
A couple history points: Rack and pinion steering was introduced by BMW in the 1930’s many European makers following in the 50’s. The Ford pinto was the first US car to have Rack and pinion in the 70’s Second torsion bars are more recent than leaf of coil springs patented in its present form by Porsche in 1931. Torsion bars had advantages over early coil springs that detail development of chassis, shocks and coil springs mitigated those advantages. For the record military tracked vehicles still use torsion bars.
I like the Hudson .... Their 6 cilinders were absolute monsters.
My favorite low-production classic muscle car is the AMX, but the B-body Mopars are right up there so I'm happy to see this build advancing. Even if Magne doesn't seem too excited, heh.
You asked what are we working on… picked up a 92 s10 extended cab for my teen to drive to Highschool. It’s the 4.3 2wd Automatic. Just put a set of Corvette Rally on it and did a tune up.
I would do the whole frame rail. It’s more expensive and more work, but you’ll never have to worry about it ever again, not only in that one spot but everywhere else on the frame, too. Set it and forget it
The puppy needs to be in every single video as the questionable garage mascot!
Finally what I’ve wanted you to do forever! Build a Car that you can build for yourself! This is the Content I love! Happy for You,You really Deserve it Bud! Take the frame off a Treat frame,New Lines,All New Body Mounts,etc! The Channel,Car,and you Deserve’s it. Full Resolution!!!
Well Jarod, I'm tin the same boat. 1970 Superbee getting done by me in my garage. Yep, it's been some firsts for me along the way. I had to learn welding. I've always been the bodyman but knew right out of the gate I would have to do the welding myself. My car was almost as revealing as yours ...as soon as I got the skins off! I'm just now subscribing so I have to catch up on all the videos for this RR build you're doing!
I love cars hands down but your positive attitude just brings me happiness thank you brother.
love the old school quote slipped in... "make" build it better ... i am a Mopar guy since the 80's driving "test driving" my dad's turbo shelbys... from the glhs, to the csx (shadow), to daytona shelby turbos... to working on my 2003 dodge dakota family truck on the side of the road in the city with busses passing by my feet as i reach for wrenches...and mopars definitely have a tendency to rust lol...looking forward to this build !!!
Never seen this channel before, the title got me.
I'm so glad I'm 54 and got my first car, which I still have, and it was a musclecar, and it was the car I wanted as my dream. Then and now.
It's a 1970 Oldsmobile 442. I still got it and I'll die before it's no longer mine.
Edit : growing up a good friend of mine had other stuff but one that stuck out was a grey primer, relatively clean for Michigan car, 1969 satellite. Yes it had a transplanted junkyard low compression 440 with headers. On a daily driver this meant no starter changes in the parking lot in January at K-mart like my A-body GM stuff, but still...that dash was and is so very cool. The sounds thru a low trim satellite with very little sound deadening and actually daily driving it thru winter in Detroit all thru the 1980s with a 10+ year old car then was more than impressive and fun.
I heard wise man once say- “Don’t get it right, just get it running!” From a viewer standpoint, I think it would be cool to see it back on the road as is! I think it would build confidence for you to ride around in it for a bit then tackle the cosmetics a little later! Really enjoying this build 👍🏼 whatever you choose will be sweet
Old Mopars are just beautiful! I’m a huge fan of restomods but there’s something special about period correct hot rod builds. I think you hit it on the nose with this one! Can’t wait to see where this project goes! Keep up the awesome work!
Love the technical terms.. Cadiwampus.. 😂❤😂❤
My project is replacing brake rotors, pads and stainless lines on my 335k mile 94 C1500 Suburban. Then replacing the shocks with Bilstein shocks and eventually figuring out how to install the body bushings.
My all-time favorite ... 1969 Z-28 Camaro ... I pretty much like them all!!
Do the necessary bodywork to get the "while it's not in there's " done. Then build the drive line. It will break up the project and give us/you the small wins to keep it moving forward.
Got a 1968 Coronet 440 with an 871 sticking out of the hood. I has the same b pillar and roofline as the roadrunner and that car.
Working on restoring a 1968 camaro and currently installing intererior/dash parts and have run into a poorly maintained wiring harness. Thankfully I caught this now. Getting ready to install new harness. Like you said " don't be in a hurry and do a little at a time" great words of wisdom
I myself had a 1970 Satellite back in the late 80’s early 90’s. Put a 440 6 Barrel in after I blew up the 383 racing a 69 Road Runner. It was a very smooth driving car , lived in an area that had some speed bumps, the torsion bars absorbed them so well I really never noticed them. If I still had it or got another one I would not Remove the Torsion Bars and go to coil overs. Good luck on your build will be fun to watch 😊
Whole frame rail. If you’re going to build your dream car, spend the money to make it right!!!!! Blow it completely apart and fix all of it. It’s your dream car!!! Make it awesome
Beaumont 67’ is my fav!
Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴. I have a plymouth as well. That's my baby project. Bought a crusty old 1960 savoy have been at it for two years now, replaced every single flat piece of floor in it. Only the trans tunnel was good. Handmade a section of the roof and the bottom of the quarter panels, have not done the doors and fenders yet since it can be taken of the car later and fixed. it will soon be a rolling restoration from then on. Ready to break in the new camshaft and get it moving now just needs some exhaust and fuel plumbing now.
Favorite muscle car has always been a two way tie between the 1970-1973 Pontiac Trans Ams and The 340 Dusters.
Bodywork first, Engine later. With the crack and rust on the frame rail, I'd change that, too. It's a once in a lifetime build, not fix it on a weekend!
After doing some paint and then having to rebuild a big section after the mechanical build out, the ‘pretty’ stuff should get fully built out to a finish, then get the final body work and build out to make sure it’s what I wanted
I absolutely agree with “mocking up” every part before finalizing the metal work/bodywork/paint. I learned this the hard way many years ago, and I’ve been reminded of that lesson many times over the years! When building different cars-especially for the first time… i never failed to forget a minor detail “test-fitment” before having paint on the car🤦🏻♂️! It’s at this point you start praying whatever bezel, grill, or stainless trim piece that borders the paint fits as it should without gaps! Consideration of details like these and being methodical are what enable my 45yr old example to out perform the 21yr old version that was full of energy-and mistakes! 🤦🏻♂️😂
By the way Jared, I love the satellite, the frame rail should absolutely be repaired as it is. Those areas are prone to damage from potholes-even on cars with no rust. I’ve seen much worse damage where those (welded nut) K-frame mounts are repaired and never fail. Having new rails is a wonderful option for body rot and collision damage-but trust me-replacing them is extensive process! I say mock up every single piece on the car, use all the nuts, bolts, and shims, to make the panel gaps right. You don’t have to install the glass, trim-clips, or trim-screws but I would ensure you have new stainless trim clips/screws for everything (just lay them in the channel to be sure-then bag them back up. Remove any old clips and screws from the body-allowing you to place & check the trim fitment against where the painted edges will be.
Once all of that stuff is done gather a group of car buddies together for a careful Saturday tear down while you document everything in a notebook just for the satellite. Tag and bag every bolt, washer, nut, and screw. As you remove each panel bolt-write down how many shims are there, if something needs attention here, or missing bolt here etc. The time you will save by doing that will expedite the process…making the end result SO worth it! I built a 70’ satellite around 2009. It had to have the trunk floor, trunk extensions, quarter patch panels(lower rear), the outer wheel tubs, and drip rail patches(rear window corners) all of the sheet metal came from AMD. Ive done quite a few like this, I’m sure you probably have too, but if you happen to get stuck on something, need any advice, or some tips/suggestions you’re welcome to contact me brother.
I’m Ryan, and here is my email😊

Good luck on the build, I’ll be following along, you’ve got a great channel 😊
good ol bolt joints. I think that's what the bus I rode to school as a kid had based on the ride quality.
Ironically I'm doing a complete front and rear suspension like you are on a 67 Mustang Convertible. It's a 6-banger car but fixing it up for my wife whom was born in 67. She is fighting and beating ovarian cancer and loves your dogs :-)
I'll give it to you, that was a great visual of how a shock works with the spring. Get the new frame section.
This is my dream car. Having our first baby and I would love to find one to build overtime with my kid.
Crazy how times changed, my brother's first car in 1976 was a '68 GTX with a 440, 10 years later my first car was small enough to put in the trunk of the GTX!!!! My favorite car is a 1970 Super Bee!!!!!
Nice! I can't wait to see you build this into a beautiful dream car and not just a race car (not that there's anything wrong with that of course). Totally understand loving a 70s muscle car too, my favorite is the 1971 boat-tail riviera.
Excited for this build!
My late father had a Roadrunner, Satellite, Camaro and a Chevelle. Keep in mind this is back when they were common vehicles and nothing special. He liked the Satellite and it was cheaper than a Roadrunner on insurance back then too. Also in his words the Camaro was the best handling one for tracks. The others were good for burnouts and drag racing. Obviously 😂 my favorite is a 70 Roadrunner.
We are building a 69 AMC rambler american.. so far we installed mustang 2 type front suspension, c5/c7 front brakes 13 in rotors, 2017 5.7 hemi, 8hp70 trans 8.8 rear .. and a 2015 hemi 2.4 liter SC .. work in progress
My first car I got when I was 16 in 1973 was a 69 Roadrunner 727 auto 383 with air yeah one of the few, about a year later I got a 70 Roadrunner (my Dad wanted the 69 he was a Ford guy go figure) it had the air grabber hood and Pistol grip 4 speed also a 383. Loved them both but the 70 has always been the car I wish I would have kept. Right now I have a 68 Dart and a 72 Barracuda haven't run into the rust issue on these too much. Looking forward to seeing where you go with this. Also if it's not extensive I would weld and patch the frame rail done right it should be just as strong.
Great episode! I’m really looking forward to watching your progress with this (and your other) project(s)!
I think you should replace the frame rail, since this is your dream muscle car. You’re already going to be replacing the body panels and you want this to be as good as possible. With your knowledge, skills, and expertise it will be, no doubt.
My favorite muscle car is the ‘87 Buick Grand National/GNX. The original owner of my first Supra had a ‘87 GN and it was such an amazing car. His wife had one as well. I was impressed beyond belief with not only their incredible taste in cars, but also with how incredibly kind, knowledgeable and generous they were.
I really enjoyed the shock/spring demonstration, as well! I love how educational, entertaining and inspiring your videos are! Please keep up the amazing work!
You asked about our projects, im currently working on slightly modifying my 2001 Tiburon, I've done more than I can list here but I recently put on now front fenders, parking break cables,and rear sway bar. Last november I started body work so its in primer, did i mention its my daily. I like to think I only have 5 % left but these at least 70% of the time I'll spend on it.
Favorite muscle car? Foxbody mustang. SVT of course.
Slant 6 torsion bars are the go to for old school drag racers. Better weight transfer on launch.
I have heard a lot of YT car guys say the metal and body work episodes don't do well so maybe make it a driver first and make sure it's functioning the way you want it to and then blast it apart to do the body work. Definitely not as efficient, but it will probably give you the drive to get the tedious stuff done if you fall in love with it first.
As much as I am a chevy guy through and through. The Superbird is my all time favorite car.
1966-67 Ford Fairlane. My dream car.
65 GTO, and I grew up in this time. For me it's my favorite.
Thanks Jared for keeping it a Sport Satellite! Love this hot rod road going builds..
Awesome car and perfect idea as a nice solid driver. I'm working on an 85 jeep xj 2 door and yes the floor was gone lol but the unibody rails are mint so I'm currently welding in new floors and doing a nice off road camping rig for our family. I already have a brand new 6.5 lift on it and 35s so getting under it is a dream lol 😆
I can’t believe this video doesn’t have more likes. I would patch the frame out the new QA 1 is going to put stress in different locations and you should be just fine QA 1 engineered that suspension to be better and eliminate issues like this. My current project is a 77 VW Bus with 2.5 out of a 2000 Forester and it’s getting ready for the first start.
Love the videos and the dogs. This spring's projects include re-shoeing the parking brake. Changing fluid, filters and hoses, installing a block heater, all while bankrolling to purchase new tires and wheels for my Amgen M813 5 ton. Likely going with Michelin 395 85R - 20's...7 of them...oy!
That's a very good
Way to show how the shocks work.
I wouldn't never thought of it.
Nice buddy, I have a 70 satellite, my high school car,lol owned since 1987. Love the channel
I have a 70 Chevelle. Although common and easy to get parts for, it also means there is a lot of variation in people's builds, which helps keep them interesting.
Great build! If I were you, I would patch that frame rail and move on. It’s good enough for who it’s for and what they’re paying. Lol
The patch is a 100% right way, I’m wanting to make this thing as perfect as possible, but perfection can also get in the way of ever completing it… poor Supra
@@TheQuestionableGarageI remember my dream car...it's retro futuristic...it's a piece of art ,
SADLY ENOUGH THE NOSTALGIAGASM BEHIND IT IS RIDICULOUS...
I just fell in love with it cause of the style not the hype...
And the... INSANE PRICES OF THEM...
1959..... CADILLAC COUPE DEVILLE......🤦
80k folks.....
80k....?
really......?
really.....?
I have also found that if you throw all the technical stuff at people they get information overload and the info starts to escape out the persons ears.
1967 Mitsubishi Galant GTO, 1978 Ford Capri S, Nissan Skyline 2000 GT-R and 1966 Jensen Interceptor. Not sure if everyone would agree these are muscle cars but it's what I would pick!
Yeah corvettes are sports cars more so the newer ones with independent suspension on them for handling. Sports cars are cars that have fantastic power and all of it is put to the road. Muscle cars are giant cars with solid axles with crazy power that will feel like itll rip you in half. Also most of the power goes to the road the rest of it is to break loose the tires for nice burnouts lol.
For that amount of damage, I would not even consider replacing the frame rail. The required repair is easy and minor.
frame rail, from my experience from working on cars it was usually ate up everywhere when I started patchwork treadmill
I would repair/patch the existing frame, yours is not bad at all.
I would suggest starting on the front end structural repair and some of the rust repair around the engine bay before rebuilding the engine. It's super easy to get stalled out on the rust repair and bodywork. Being able to shift gears and rebuild/install the drivetrain will give you a break on the metalwork when you need a change.
@24:08 puts murder weapon back into the bumper. LOL
As someone who owns both a '68 Roadrunner and '69 Satellite station wagon, I can't wait to see this project come together!
I learned to drive on this car. I still remember the ignition key went in upside down
I had a 70 340 4spd, rally package Duster, Plum crazy paint. My Cousin had a lite blue 70 Chevelle with a L88, 4spd. That car was awesome.
Nice! My first car was a 72' Satellite Sebring Plus cloned as a Roadrunner. That was in 1997, though.
Make it solid, make it smooth driving and enjoyable. It doesn't have to have a fancy paint job to enjoy the heck out of it. 72 Dart project currently that I'm working on. Body straight and solid mostly except for the non existing floor, thanks mopar and the right front fender that obviously came from the salt mine. The double scoop hood is mint thankfully. Love the Dog btw
I was lucky enough to pick up my dream muscle car (1970 Ford Torino with a shaker hood) last winter in a non running state was able to get it running and drive it one whole mile before the timing gear came apart and all the pistons met all the intake valves, I have since rebuilt the Cleveland and decided not to put the auto back in and do a 5 speed conversion. in the process of getting it back on the road hopefully for more miles this time. I defiantly understand the struggle of having a non mainstream car but I am very excited to see the satellite get built.
Just to clarify. I'm not upset you don't do clean cars often. I just noticed that your thing is the patina style. That said, I'm also a huge fan of that '70 body style. Now will you take all of it apart so it can go on a rotisserie so all of the body get fixed?
EDIT: fav. muscle car is the '72 Gran Torino sports roof.
I think patching the frame rail is a great idea and sounds like a very interesting method to resolve the cracks! Either way, I think it will come out great Jared.
