It is a Sport Satellite Convertible BB 4 speed

It's gonna be about 50-80 units for US-spec cars. I'll have to chime in later with my book for an accurate number.

The below old thread here notes 71 units built of the 383 Satellite ragtop..
Sounds like an Auto but no clarification of breakdown by trans or Sport options?.

About 25 years ago my buddy and I dragged home a real '69 GTX 440/4-Spd. ragtop he'd sniffed out..
Solid car w/ original boxing/leafs/Dana and Trans, original bronze color car that needed resto...all for $50.00!.
The only bad was my pal passed away soon after, the car sold off and I don't know what ever became of it?.

I didn't see any Satellite pics in that link. Also, it's possible the car could be a 383-2 - the VIN will tell the tale.

I think the 383 was only offered in 2bbl for the Satellitte

The Sport Satellite had the 2bbl. 383 as well. What it didn't have was the /6.

back in the 80's,my ex's mom gave me her 1 owner 68 sport satellite that was wasting away in their backyard

it was a sport satellite,and had a 2 barrel 383.

lots of GTX's out there that were formerly 2 barrel sport satellites,since they are basically the same car.
just put in a 150 speedo big brakes and a front sway bar and a 440,some emblems and you have a GTX.
