Chevrolet Chevelle Second Generation part one 1968-1970

In the late 60s, Chevrolet decided the Chevelle needed a makeover – and boy, did it get one! Shrinking the wheelbase like it was going on a diet, the 1968 Chevelle strutted in with a long hood and a trunk that played hard to get. Meanwhile, the SS 396 and luxury Concours models flaunted hidden wipers like they were hiding a juicy secret. By 1970, the Chevelle was squared up and ready to party with a new 454 engine. It was like the Chevelle was saying, “Who needs subtlety when you can have horsepower?”

Bugatti Veyron

by Ross Mills

Meet the Bugatti Veyron, the street-legal speed demon that once held the record for the world’s fastest car at 267.856 mph. This engineering marvel boasts two mid-mounted V8 engines, four turbochargers, and a bank of ten radiators just to keep its cool. However, owning one is no small feat—its Michelin PAX tires alone will set you back $70,000, and a new transmission? A cool $120,000. So, if you’re planning a trip to France, maybe add a vineyard tour while you’re at it!
