Behold the 1963 Chevrolet Impala SS, the crown jewel of the Generation 3 lineup, rolling in on the trusty GM “B” platform. This beauty flaunts a more squared-up look with an aluminum panel, chromed border, and the iconic three-taillight configuration. Under the hood, you could opt for the popular 283 or 327 engines. And if you’re feeling fancy, why not splurge an extra forty-three bucks for those “controversial” power brakes? There’s even a rare factory dash-mounted tachometer, just for kicks!

In 1970, the Oldsmobile Cutlass lineup was like a car buffet—offering everything from a two-door sedan to a convertible that probably had a better social life than you! The base model was the F-85, but if you wanted to show off, the “Cutlass Supreme” was your ticket to ride. Feeling sporty? The “Cutlass S” was as fast as your dad’s old running shoes.

Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird 1970

by Ross Mills

The 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird, a NASCAR-inspired marvel, was designed to outrun the competition. With its aerodynamic wizardry and a distinctive, towering rear spoiler—rumored to be for trunk access rather than speed control—the Superbird hoped to lure Richard Petty back to Plymouth. It did, and Petty flew the coop with eight NASCAR wins. Despite its brief existence, the Superbird’s value has soared, unlike its spoiler-less siblings, proving that sometimes it’s cool to be a “funny car.”

Pontiac Trans Am 1970 to 1975

by Ross Mills

The Pontiac Trans Am from 1970-1975 was a muscle car with a flair for drama—think swooping body styles and engines named like action heroes, such as the Ram Air III and IV. The ’74 SD-455 was the muscle-bound heavyweight, boasting an engine so strong it could almost bench press the car itself. By ’75, the Trans Am got a facelift with a wrap-around rear window, but emissions regulations were like a diet plan for the engine, slimming down those power gains. Who needs horsepower when you have style, right?

In 1958, Ford Motors revved up with three all-new V8 engine families: MEL, FE, and FT, leaving the old “Y” block behind like a forgotten lunchbox. The MEL, aka “Mercury-Edsel-Lincoln,” sported a unique valve arrangement, resembling a Chevy big block but with a twist. Meanwhile, Mercury’s exclusive 383 cu in Marauder flexed its muscles, boasting horsepower that seemed to fluctuate like a temperamental teenager. And let’s not forget the FT, built to power trucks like a caffeinated bison.

In Cuba, American classics—”Yank Tanks”—roam the streets, defying time and embargoes. Thanks to Cuban ingenuity, over 60,000 vintage cars thrive, often patched with Soviet parts. These vehicular relics, once the pride of American gangsters, now serve as workhorses on bumpy roads. With gas prices high, many have swapped engines for Soviet diesel ones. Strolling through Havana’s historic streets, you’re not just in a museum; you’re in a moving testament to resilience and a bygone era.

by Ross Mills

In the early ’60s, Oldsmobile unveiled the F-85 & Cutlass, aiming to blend practicality with pizzazz. With a unibody design, this compact wonder sported a lightweight 215-cubic-inch V8 engine, perfect for those who wanted speed without breaking the bank—or the speed limit! Despite its charm, critics found its suspension as soft as a marshmallow. The Cutlass grew in popularity, especially with the turbocharged Jetfire, which offered a thrilling ride, albeit with a few reliability hiccups.

by Ross Mills

For the 1969 model year, the Camaro was the belle of the SCCA Trans Am ball, equipped with Corvette-like stopping power thanks to four-piston calipers. Only 206 of these beauties sported the $500 JL8 option, making them rarer than a unicorn on a racetrack. The Z28 package was a powerhouse, boasting a 302-cubic-inch engine, and the COPO version went rogue with a 427-cubic-inch beast, courtesy of Don Yenko. And let’s not forget the ZL-1, an all-aluminum marvel, crafted with love and 16 hours of labor!

By 1956, sales skyrocketed, helped by the addition of power steering and new models like the Eldorado Biarritz. This Cadillac was truly the king of the road!

With only 861 units produced in 1987, this rare gem features a 305 CID (5.0 L) V8 engine and a 3-speed automatic transmission.

Chevrolet Biscayne 1964 images

by Ross Mills

The 1964 Chevrolet Biscayne may have been marketed as the budget-friendly choice, but this “plain Jane” was no wallflower at the drag strip. Thanks to a few sneaky 409 engines installed by the factory, the Biscayne Fleetmaster could leave more expensive models eating its dust. It’s like showing up to a tuxedo party in a Hawaiian shirt and still stealing the show! Check out these classic images to see why the Biscayne was the underdog that barked louder than its price tag suggested.
