Adam Martin bought this primer-gray 1968 Chevrolet Camaro at sixteen with money he’d earned making pizzas, knowing little more about cars than how to check the oil. Decades later, the imperfections he built into it himself — a coat-hanger scar in the paint, a set of Hooker headers he hammered into shape by hand — are the parts he refuses to fix. Petrolicious follows how one car became Martin’s entire automotive education. Watch to hear the story behind every imperfection.
Regular Guy Garage is dropping a 347 stroker into a 1986 Mustang Notchback, and against the current of nearly every build video out there, he’s doing it with a carburetor instead of fuel injection. His reasoning — no sensors, no wiring harness, no computer to fight with — has resonated with viewers who own everything from Chargers to Firebirds to Camaros. Watch to hear the full case for going old-school.
priceman141’s rundown of six supposedly strange muscle car facts turned into an unplanned classification debate the moment it hit the comments, with viewers arguing that only the Plymouth Superbird actually qualifies as a muscle car among the cars featured. Whether or not the video gets the categories right, it surfaces a genuinely rare piece of Detroit history in the Ford Boss 429 along the way. Watch and decide which side of the muscle car versus pony car argument you land on.
Ron Hoeft bought this 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS Super Sport new, let it go at some point over the following decades, and then — against long odds — tracked it down and bought the exact same car back. Host Lou Costabile sits down with Ron at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals to hear the full story behind the big-block 427, the rare factory vinyl top, and a reunion most owners never get.
Most Mustang GT reviews lean on the window sticker. Landan took LMR’s fresh 2018 Mustang GT straight to a dyno and a quarter-mile track before touching a single bolt, establishing real baseline numbers for a car generation that brought more changes than most buyers realize, an all-new third-generation Coyote V8 and a 10-speed automatic with a dedicated drag mode among them. Watch to see exactly what the numbers showed, and why viewers are still debating them.
After 122 episodes of Muscle Car Of The Week, V8TV pulled the actual play-count data to rank which individual cars fans watched the most. Two Ford Boss Mustangs claim the top spots, with a Hemi Superbird, a Mr. Norm’s Challenger, and a Dodge Daytona rounding out the list. The hosts even challenge viewers to guess what’s conspicuously missing from the countdown.
With more than 5.6 million views and not a word of description to explain it, this viral clip has traveled far beyond the usual muscle-car crowd. There’s no famous car and no big-name channel here — just a few seconds that people can’t seem to stop replaying and arguing about. The Russian title hints, cryptically, that money is somehow involved. Watch and decide for yourself what all the fuss is about.
An 1100-horsepower AWD Nissan GT-R should win this fight before it even starts — thats the whole point of all-wheel drive at a standing start. But this Nth Moto-built Dodge Viper, running an estimated 1700 horsepower through an old-school H-pattern manual and nothing but 18-inch street tires, had other plans during a night of TX2K18 street racing. The 50-to-180-mph numbers alone are worth the watch. See how a rear-wheel-drive holdout took down the AWD favorites.
The Dodge Charger debuted in 1966 as a two-door-only muscle car with V8 power and a distinctive rotating-headlight grille, a formula it kept until the nameplate went dormant in the late 1970s. When Dodge revived it in 2006, the Charger came back as a four-door sedan, a shift that still splits opinion among Mopar loyalists decades later.
A 1968 Shelby GT500KR in Acapulco Blue sits inside a Phoenix restoration shop with its original body and interior intact, but its 428 Cobra Jet engine has a story of its own — the factory motor was destroyed drag racing decades ago. Owner Tony Arme of American Legends Hot Rods is bringing it back to 1968 condition piece by piece. Find out why collectors still call this one of the most significant KR builds on the shop floor.
Long before anyone treated it as historically significant, this was just a used Chevrolet Camaro passing between owners. Marque historians eventually traced its chassis back far enough to confirm what it actually was: the first Camaro Chevrolet ever built, GM’s answer to the Ford Mustang. It’s now preserved as entry No. 15 on the National Historic Vehicle Register, permanently archived at the Library of Congress. Watch to see how a first-year pony car earned a place among America’s most historically significant vehicles.
This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner spent its early life as ‘Agent Orange,’ a Detroit-area drag car famous for popping wheelies at Milan Dragway. A decade-long rotisserie restoration and a NASCAR-built 500-cubic-inch six-pack engine later, it’s now a street-legal machine wearing its drag strip pedigree openly. See what a documented drag-strip pedigree and a 700-horsepower six-pack stroker look like on the same car.
A $239,400 McLaren MP4-12C and its 616 horsepower twin-turbo V8 take on a stock, all-original 1970 Chevelle SS 396 that once sold for around $3,200. The video calls it a joke comparison, but the Chevelle runs a genuinely respectable 13.7 seconds and the comments turned it into something more interesting than a punchline. One viewer did the math: the McLaren has already lost well over half its sticker price while the Chevelle is worth many times what it cost new. Watch the run, then read why almost nobody in the comments picked the McLaren.
Owner Mike Fitzgerald has kept this 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird since 1972, but it took restorer Mark Sekula sixteen months to bring its numbers-matching 426 Hemi and Limelight Green paint back to factory spec. Along the way, the car nearly met a very different fate at the hands of a relative who had no idea what a Hemi Superbird was worth. See what a homologation special built to chase NASCAR wins looks like fifty years later.
This CasualRacing compilation strings together some of the most expensive mistakes made behind the wheel of a 707-horsepower Dodge Hellcat. From a bystander offering body shop directions before the dust even settles to a dealership salesman sprinting clear of a demo drive gone wrong, these are the moments Hellcat owners hope never make it online. Watch to see just how fast that much power can turn a green light into a very public lesson.
