Two good'uns! I like the Satellite. But I like the Chevelle just a tad more. Chevy for me for now.

I favor the Chevelle because it appears to be totally stock.

The satellite was one of the best cars Plymouth ever put out. Great midsize car family wagon, 4 door or sports car. It was good enough for the Brady Bunch  I liked satellites from 65 thru the 70s.  Family car was a 1972 Satellite Custom. Yes it had the hoking vinyl top. Every weekend when it was warm outside I was out there with hose and bucket keeping her shiny. I drove it to my prom and at one time on the flats I got it up to 110 mph I ran out of straight road to go any faster. Please don’t tell my dad!!!!  I bet he knew. He always knew. Too bad when it hit a certain age the H block on the firewall cracked regularly (o we used to call it the H block) we used to have a box of them in the trunk. It lasted 15 years.

Never cared for the Chevelle they felt like a cheap compact to me back in the day while the C.C. B-body cars felt more substantial, roomier and seemed to handle better with the torsion bar front suspension. In my opinion the C.C. drive trains were bullet proof compared to Chevy, bodies rotted out faster though.

Plymouth please. I also preferred the styling.

Plymouth for me. It looks great while the Chevelle is bland.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I rather like the Satellite but not as much as the Chevelle. I had  the 1966 version, very similar. My SS stood out as a banner car of the 1960s and I miss it to this day.

Honestly, neither car really grabs my fancy, but if the proverbial "push comes to shove", PLYMOUTH gets my vote!

I much prefer the styling of the Chevelle.  I suppose it is plainer than the following years but I still find the SS version very attractive.

There aren't many examples of the '65 Plymouth Fury in 1/43.  This one by Altaya is a lower end price range with non stock wheels but well done nonetheless.  Hopefully GLM or Matrix will produce one in the future.
