What strikes you when you see the 'real thing' in the middle of that
showroom? Figuring out that long, yet gentle, and sweeping arc that has
an unceasing stretch from its headlight brow to tail light tip. Those
headlights that looks just like those of the previous Plymouths, and
taillights hooded with a rearward cant. It's the Plymouth Belvedere.
In 1954 the Belvedere had been the separate product of Plymouth, and
brings forth a Belvedere Satellite in 1965. Its 116 wheelbase was then
promoted as a mid-size rather than a full-size. Its line went from
Belvedere I to the II, and then to the Satellite. The Plymouth
Belvedere's body could be a hardtop or a convertible; both have bucket
seats. It has a simple front end which only consist of a single
headlight on each side, and a grill that is divided into four thin
rectangles that is laid horizontally. This Plymouth Belvedere first
appeared as the hardtop model of the Cranbrook line in 1951, and
through 1953,when it continues as the only top-of-the-line hardtop model
There was a re-skinning of the Plymouth Belvedere in 1966, and the 1965
Belvedere I was dropped. The top-of-the-line Satellite model got an
optional Street Hemi. The styles for the '66 was clean and lustrous,
and its rear bumper was smooth. The taillights too were placed
horizontally and front end grill work was softened. The Plymouth
Belvedere features sculpted side panels and like the '65 and '66
Belvedere's, it carries on the theme of squares that is visible in the
single headlamps. It alsofeatured a flattering version of the
distinctive triangular shaped C-pillars on the two-door hardtop.
