David Freiburger uses this Roadkill Extra episode to preview the final chapter of the Crusher Camaro’s retro makeover while breaking down electric versus mechanical gauges — and the real tradeoffs most builders don’t consider until they’re already mid-install. It’s practical, hands-on advice from someone who has made both mistakes already. Watch for the gauge tips most builds skip entirely.
Only 678 Buick GSX Stage 1 models left the factory in 1970, and this Saturn Yellow 4-speed is one of them — a 360-horsepower, 510 lb-ft muscle car that Motor Trend clocked at 13.38 seconds in the quarter mile, its fastest test of the entire year. One former owner kept this exact combination for twenty years. See what made Buick’s forgotten muscle car a legitimate contender.
Episode 67 of the Motorz rebuild series picks up the Chevy 350 build at its most consequential stage — the top end, where a single missed torque step or skipped sealant can undo three prior episodes of careful work. Viewers with decades of small block experience have weighed in throughout, flagging two specific mistakes worth avoiding and trading tricks that never make it into a written manual. Watch to see exactly where a home rebuild can go right, or wrong.
Nelson Racing Engines’ Tom Nelson sat down with 1320video at SEMA to explain the Maximus Charger — a 2,000-horsepower 1968 Dodge Charger built to recreate a scene from the original Fast and the Furious inside Furious 7. Over 2,000 hours of bodywork went into a car commenters initially assumed was fake. Watch the full breakdown of the build above.
Hagerty’s Stefan Lombard spent time with a 1963 split-window Corvette to explain what makes the C2 the most collectible generation in the model’s history — and where buyers get burned if they don’t know what to check. It’s a buyers guide built from decades of watching these cars change hands, including one correction Hagerty had to issue after the fact. Watch to find out what even an executive editor got wrong on camera.
Nearly five minutes long and first aired on NBC’s American Dreams to launch the redesigned 2005 Mustang, this commercial tells the story of a Marine coming home to a driveway surprise from his father. The comments reveal a twist the ad never states outright, plus a running debate over whether it even counts as a true Ford commercial rather than just a Mustang one. Even self-described Chevy loyalists admit it’s hard to dislike. Watch to see why it still gets shared more than fifteen years later.
Doug DeMuro calls the 2019 Corvette ZR1 the ultimate Corvette in this review, working through the supercharged LT5 V8 and the quirks that earned it his signature DougScore. The comments are just as entertaining as the car, endless “Doug is the type of guy” jokes, plus one pointed reminder that the mid-engine C8 arrived not long after. Watch to see if the ZR1’s case still holds up.
This 1969 Camaro isn’t just any barn find — it’s a genuine Yenko Super Camaro built through Chevrolet’s COPO 427 program, one of only 201 made and one of just 30 with an automatic transmission. Parked in rural Indiana since the 1970s, it missed the entire modern muscle car boom and comes out the other side essentially untouched. Watch to see what fifty years of storage did to one of the rarest Camaros Chevrolet ever built.
This 2003 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra convertible has covered under 4,400 miles since new, spending most of its life with a single Ford collector before landing at Vanguard Motor Sales. Under the hood is the supercharged 4.6-liter Terminator V8 that made this generation of Cobra famous, paired with a six-speed manual and a limited-slip rear end. The paint, top, and interior all read like a car barely broken in. Cars this clean rarely stay on a lot for long.
This 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z28, finished in Granada Gold, carries no exterior badge proving what it is — just a “4L” code stamped on the firewall confirming its rare, racing-homologated 302 V8. Owner Ron Makovich has kept it since 2000, sharing the hobby with his son and grandchildren. Watch to find out why the very first Z28 Camaros were built to satisfy a racing rulebook, not a sales brochure.
CarsFX’s countdown of 2018’s most anticipated muscle cars mixes the expected — the Dodge Demon, the Viper, the supercharged Camaro ZL1 — with one entry almost nobody saw coming: the hand-built EQUUS Bass 770, which commenters say out-styles anything currently built by Ford. The list isn’t perfect (a few older models slipped in), but the reaction proves one car stole the whole show. Watch to see which upcoming muscle car has fans arguing the most.
Some cars get decades of careful restoration. This 1969 Camaro SS got decades in a barn instead — and it still stopped traffic at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals. Under the hood is a 396-cubic-inch L78, once the most powerful regular production engine Chevrolet offered. Watch to see what makes this unrestored survivor one of the show’s genuine hidden gems.
Bob Gough grew up idolizing European sports cars after a few childhood years in France — until a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S changed his mind. Over more than twenty-three years of ownership, he’s swapped in a 340-cubic-inch V8, a Tremec five-speed, and nitrogen shocks, building a car with enough torque to ‘leave Porsches behind’ on the straights. Watch to see why one habit still catches him out in the corners.
This 1970 Chevrolet Impala, powered by a 350 small-block paired with a TH350 automatic, hadn’t run since 1993, 23 years of silence before this restart attempt. Using nothing more than a dwell meter, timing light, and decades of hands-on know-how, host Jonathan walks through exactly what it takes to wake up an engine everyone assumed was finished. Watch to hear how it sounds once it finally catches.
