A Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody gets turned loose on a stretch of German Autobahn with no posted limit, clawing toward 185 mph. Partway through the run, a phone breaks free from its mount — and the driver makes a split-second call viewers are still talking about. Here’s what the run reveals about America’s fastest four-door.
This 1969 Chevelle SS had already been through a full restoration before the V8 Speed & Resto Shop crew tackled its next upgrade: a Tremec TKO 600 five-speed overdrive conversion behind its 454 big-block, rated to handle 600 pound-feet of torque. The install keeps the shifter in its factory location and drops highway RPM dramatically, a detail one viewer calculated out to roughly 1,750 rpm at 60 mph. Watch the full install to see what it takes to give a numbers-matching muscle car an overdrive gear Detroit never offered.
A European car channel best known for reviewing supercars recently gave a 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge the full walkaround-and-test-drive treatment, and its fans couldn’t stop talking about it. The Judge’s name came within a licensing dispute of never happening at all, and only a handful of the rarest version were ever built. Here’s the real story behind Pontiac’s loudest muscle car option, and the numbers that back up its reputation today.
The 2017 Shelby GT350’s 5.2-liter Voodoo V8 used a flat-plane crankshaft, revved to 8,250 rpm, and made 526 horsepower without a turbo or a supercharger anywhere in sight. It was hand-assembled by two-person teams on a dedicated line, sounded more like a Ferrari than a Mustang, and lasted five model years before Ford moved on. Owners still treat surviving examples as a limited-run specialty engine rather than an ordinary Mustang V8. Read on for why.
A three-way design vote on a 1970 Plymouth ‘Cuda restomod just took a hard left turn: instead of a classic orange or period-correct blue scheme, the build team picked a modern quad-headlight front end nobody expected. Here’s why that call matters on a car with only 14 factory Hemi convertibles ever built, and where Project CudaCat heads next.
A 1969 Camaro SS and a genuine Plymouth Superbird both go into hibernation every winter at Legendary Motorcar, and the shop treats the shutdown like it actually matters. Here is the fuel, battery, and rodent-proofing routine that keeps them starting clean every spring.
The 1965 Corvair Monza pictured here arrived during a complete second-generation redesign, trading the original swing-axle rear suspension for a fully independent setup and wrapping it all in smoother, European-influenced styling. It kept Chevrolet’s unconventional air-cooled, rear-mounted flat-six layout, with a turbocharged option available for buyers chasing more performance. Chevrolet sold 152,577 Monzas that year alone, split across coupe, sedan, and convertible body styles.
We found 12 1969 Boss 302 and Mach 1 listings across ClassicCars.com’s dealer and auction network — here’s what’s available right now and what the market looks like.
A gutted, rust-eaten 1970 Chevelle bought for $11,000 just got a $30,000 crate big block dropped in during a Texas Airbnb build. The decades-old Turbo 400 almost couldn’t handle it — and the drive home wasn’t pretty. The video hit 2.2 million views in a single day.
To satisfy NASCAR’s homologation rules, Ford built the Torino Talladega with a stretched nose and smoothed bodywork purely to cut drag at superspeedway speeds, then sold roughly 750 of them to the public. The car won a championship in 1969 before NASCAR’s rule changes ended its racing career within two seasons. Here is the story behind one of Ford’s strangest street-legal race cars.
A 1986 Pontiac Firebird sat buried under decades of grime and mildew until one owner’s daughter quietly arranged to have it fully detailed as a surprise. The crew fought mold, oxidized paint, and years of decay to bring it back to life. What happened when her father finally saw it explains why this reveal has become one of the channel’s most-watched episodes.
You’ve found it: a numbers-matching 1966 Chevelle SS 396, the car that made muscle-car legends and the one you’ve been chasing for years. There’s just one problem. A documented, original SS 396 can command tens of thousands of dollars more than an identical-looking Chevelle Malibu hiding a small-block under the hood, and that price gap has turned clone-building into a decades-old cottage industry. Somebody with a die stamp, a donor 396, and a few weekends of shop time can turn a modest Malibu into a badge-and-stripe “SS 396” — and unless you know exactly where to look, you’ll hand over a five-figure premium for a car that isn’t what the seller says it is. The good news is that the tells are there if you know what you’re looking at: stamped numbers in places clone-builders routinely forget, fuel line diameters that don’t lie, and factory details that are nearly impossible to fake all at once. This guide walks through what a recent deep-dive video gets right about spotting the difference, backs it up with the car’s federal recall history, and gives you the exact spots to check before you put down a deposit.
The LeSabre name did not start as a car. It started as a jet-inspired 1951 GM Motorama show piece so popular that General Motors kept displaying it for years. By 1960 it was Buick’s entry-level full-size line, and the convertible is the version worth remembering, with returning VentiPorts, a brand-new Tri-Shield badge, and a 364 V8 that could be ordered to run on regular gas. Read on for what made 1960 a turning point for Buick.
Ford’s $1,690 Package Turns the 2026 Mustang GT Into a Fox Body Tribute — Here Is Everything You Get
Ford is bringing Fox Body-era styling back to the 2026 Mustang GT Premium with a new FX Appearance Package that costs just ,690. It is not only cosmetic either — larger brake rotors, four-piston fixed calipers, and a fastback-only spoiler come bundled with the retro white trim. Boston Auto Blog tested one at a Massachusetts Ford dealer, and the video’s own comment section revealed more of the spec sheet than the review did.
