In 2003, Darrell decided to sell his Mod Top Satellite. He shared this information at that time:

I have decided to sell my mod stuff. I do not have the time or money to restore my car, and I think someone should benefit.

What I have(it is in your modtop registry):
1969 Plymouth Satellite ModTop (blue mod on b5 blue) It was originally a 318 car, but the previous owner put in a 440 with a big block cross member from a Roadrunner. This is not one of those engine mount conversions. It does not have an engine. I have an auto transmission that is good shape that would go with the car. The rear quarters have been cut out (previous owner) and have rust, so they would need repair/replacement. The trunk and rear bumper were replace due to an accident(previous owner). The rest of the car is original with minor surface rust in spots. Cars rust very slow in New Mexico. If the buyer is patient they will get a good running 383 (in use right now).

The Mod Stuff:
I have a new top made from the original material. I have new seats covers with metallic blue outers and blue mod centers made from originally material. The matching door panels are the original panels from 1969 and are in good shape (no cracks and bright color). I could not find any one that could make the door panels.

I have $2000 in the Mod top and interior and that is what I would like to get out of it. I would prefer to sell the car and mod stuff together for that price to someone that would restore the vehicle, but I would consider selling the mod stuff separately.
