Vanguard Motor Sales’ restomod take on a 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback keeps its manual transmission, three pedals, and a V8 soundtrack that has viewers comparing it to a Ferrari Daytona. Subtle LED turn signal integration and a build philosophy built around driving feel over convenience turned a single upload into a case study on restomods done right. Even an owner of a modern Mustang GT called it a beast. Watch to see what made the comparison to Italian exotics stick.

NR Classics fires up a numbers-matching 1967 Shelby GT500 Fastback, but the engine growling under that fiberglass hood is not the one Shelby’s own sales brochure promised buyers that year. The real story behind the missing Le Mans-bred 427 explains why every production GT500 got a different engine instead — and why nobody who owns one seems to mind.
This 1,000-HP Twin-Turbo Mustang Rolled Out of a Car Show — And It Wasn’t Even the Loudest One There
A twin-turbo, supercharged ‘Vicious Mustang 2.0’ claiming 1,003 wheel horsepower headlines this car show sound compilation from 97robin997, but according to the person who filmed it, that Mustang wasn’t even the loudest car to roll through the lot. The footage also captures a Chevelle SS, a 1967 Eleanor-spec Mustang, and a 1951 Mercury coupe running a modern LS3 V8. Watch to hear which build actually stole the show.
Jay Leno sits down with AMC historian Mark Fletcher and his 1970 Javelin Mark Donohue Edition — a homologation special AMC built exactly 2,501 of, one more than the racing rules required. Fletcher’s own philosophy on car ownership, ‘I’m not collecting trophies, I’m collecting smiles,’ has become one of the most quoted lines in the show’s history. Watch the full conversation above.
An amateur clip of a 1969 Boss 429 leaving a car show it just won has racked up over a decade of replays, with commenters returning specifically to hear its rough, high-cam idle one more time. Ford built the Boss 429 purely to homologate its 429 engine for NASCAR, reshaping the Mustang’s front end just to fit it. Add American flags and a nuclear plant in the background, and it’s become an unlikely, enduring favorite.
Bob Evans Classics went hunting for a 1985 Oldsmobile 442 G-Body, a car that spent decades as a true sleeper before G-body values started climbing across the board. What they found was a rare survivor with a story of its own, tangled up with rising interest in the whole G-body family — Monte Carlo SS, Buick Grand National, and now this often-overlooked Olds. The chase says as much about the market as the car itself.
Lee bought a burned-out Dodge Demon at a Las Vegas salvage auction with no idea what he was getting into — then decided to give it something Dodge never offered on any Demon: a manual transmission. The full build video covers every setback along the way, from fire damage to the wiring fights that came with it. The ScrapLife family documents the whole thing in detail.

David Freiburger and Steve Dulcich built The Red Duster, a budget 1971 Plymouth Duster with a 360 and a four-speed, on Roadkill Garage — then Freiburger hit the road to visit Dulcich once the wrenching wrapped up. A 2023 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack giveaway rides along with the build. It’s a low-buck muscle car with a surprisingly high-value payoff.
A 1970 Buick GSX in rare Apollo White just went through MCACN’s five-hour Vintage Certification process — one of only 187 built in that color, and one of just 32 with California emissions. Host Dan Vasic walks through what separates a genuinely original survivor from a car that’s been quietly refreshed. The GSX’s story turns out to be as much about engineering as paint.
At the 2026 NHRA Rocky Mountain Nationals in Edmonton, the 3,500-horsepower Yeti Chevelle went head-to-head with Mike Gondziola’s Terminator and Sander Spelt’s Bunker Junker through a full weekend of Pro Modified eliminations. The coverage runs from Thursday test-and-tune through Saturday’s final round. It’s proof that regional Pro Mod racing delivers just as much spectacle as any national event.
Musclecars Universe returned to Masterton Motorplex for Wild Bunch NZ vs. The World, an outlaw doorslammer showcase running old-school drag cars and hotrods head-to-head for bragging rights. An hour of footage covers everything from rotary-powered underdogs to Top Alcohol cars chasing five-second passes. It’s proof New Zealand’s grassroots drag scene rivals anything happening stateside.
TheTopher takes a 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT 392 for a POV drive built around a single modification — a resonator delete aimed purely at exhaust note, captured with binaural microphones for headphone listeners. At 485 horsepower and a 4.7-second 0-60, the naturally aspirated 392 still holds its own against its Hellcat-badged sibling. The sound alone makes the case.
This Old Car digs up a 1970 Motor Trend test of the redesigned Torino Cobra 429 Super Cobra Jet — numbers fast enough to beat a 1970 Pontiac GTO 455 in period testing. Ford’s aircraft-inspired redesign added five inches of length and real performance credibility most muscle car fans have since forgotten. The data alone makes a case for reconsidering it.
