Thriller custom from SEMA360

 

Thriller Custom


 

The 1970 Plymouth Sport Satellite nicknamed “Thriller” was built by Randy Weaver of Weaver Customs in West Jordan, Utah and appeared in the SEMA360 virtual Battle of the Builders showcase.   




The top of the 900-horsepower supercharged SRT Hellcat Gen III Hemi V-8 peeks through the hood.  All that horsepower passes through a T-56 manual six-speed transmission and to the rear wheels through a narrowed Ford 9-inch rear end.




The car rides on a Scotts Hotrods independent front suspension and a triangulated four-link rear suspension with a Watt’s link.  Wilwood disc brakes provide the stopping power tucked inside a set of EVOD Industries three-piece wheels wrapped in Mickey Thompson rubber.




JS Custom Interiors in Salt Lake City handled the interior work with Hyde’s leather offset with billet accessories.   The dash is filled with Dakota Digital VHX-1023 instruments and a digital touch screen to run the Kicker audio system. The custom center console houses a Dakota Digital DCC-series controller for the Vintage Air climate package, and custom made billet shifter reminiscent of the Pistol Grip shifter made famous in the nineteen seventies Chrysler Corporation muscle cars.
