1970 Plymouth Superbird With over 750 Hp!!!!

Real 1970 Plymouth Superbirds now sell for well into six figures, putting Chrysler’s most famous wing car out of reach for almost anyone who wants to actually experience one. This hand-built tribute, constructed from an ordinary Plymouth Satellite rather than a real Road Runner or Superbird, aims to close that gap — matching the look and the performance without the seven-figure price tag. V8TV’s Muscle Car of the Week takes a close look at what it took to build. See how close a tribute can actually get.

900HP 1972 AMC Javelin SST that’s a Daily Driver

by Kiril

Mikey V.’s 1972 AMC Javelin SST makes 900 horsepower and still gets driven as a daily, a combination almost nobody manages successfully. The car’s story starts even earlier than the build, though — with his father, an American Motors employee, asking Mikey to choose between a Hornet and a Javelin decades ago. Lou Costabile’s ‘My Car Story’ catches up with the car at Wisconsin’s World of Wheels show to hear how that choice turned into this build. Watch to hear the full story.

Pontiac GTO 1969 – Street Machine

by Kiril

The 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge takes its name from a Laugh-In punchline, and Pontiac built only 6,833 of them, most in an exclusive Carousel Red reserved for the first 2,000 cars. Standard power came from a 366-horsepower Ram Air III V8, with a 370-horsepower Ram Air IV available for those who wanted more. Turning one of these into a full street machine means customizing a car that was already built to be the loudest thing on the lot.

Chevrolet Chevelle 1969 vs Buick GNX 1987

by Kiril

A numbers-matching 1969 Chevelle SS 396 and a black-on-black 1987 Buick GNX come from completely different eras of Detroit performance, yet they keep getting compared at shows and auctions. One leaned on cubic inches and a rowdy big-block soundtrack; the other proved a turbocharged V6 could embarrass V8s twice its displacement. Only 547 GNXs ever left the ASC shop, while the Chevelle came in far greater numbers with engine options that varied wildly in value. Which one actually wins the argument?

Ford Mustang 1969 GT 350 Bad Ass

by Kiril

The GT350 badge on a Mustang meant only one thing in 1969: Carroll Shelby had been involved, and the car underneath was never meant to be ordinary. This was also the final full model year before the Shelby Mustang program quietly ended. Here’s what actually separated a real 1969 GT350 from a garden-variety Mustang GT, and why the yellow paint isn’t the only thing worth a second look.

1 of 17 1971 Pontiac GTO Judge Convertible

by Kiril

At first it looks like just another clean white 1971 Pontiac GTO convertible — until the wing and stripes reveal it’s actually The Judge, and one of only seventeen convertibles built with that package for the entire model year. Straight from the Brothers Collection, this rare Pontiac hides its significance in plain sight. Watch the full breakdown to see what makes this GTO one of the rarest Judges in existence.

Chrysler New Yorker 1962 440 V8 – COOLEST CUSTOM EVER?!

by Kiril

This heavily customized 1962 Chrysler New Yorker runs a 440 cubic inch big block, an engine Chrysler wouldn’t actually introduce until 1966. The factory original came with a 413 cid V8 making 340 horsepower, so the swap is a deliberate later-model upgrade, not a restoration. Paired with air suspension, a locking differential, and side exhaust, it turns a stately three-ton sedan into a full custom built to be driven hard.

Chevrolet Camaro 1967 Crusher vs ’70 Super Bee 1,500-Mile Burnout-Fest!

by Kiril

A 1967 Camaro SS built to answer the Mustang and a 1970 Dodge Super Bee that could be ordered with a 426 Hemi make for one of the more interesting garage debates in the muscle car world. One leaned on GM’s brand-new pony car platform and a pair of gutsy 396 big-blocks; the other let buyers check a box for anything from a workmanlike 383 up to Mopar’s most feared engine. Which one actually deserves bragging rights depends on which era of muscle you respect more.

Chevrolet Corvette 1971 LT1

by Kiril

Only a fraction of 1971 Corvette buyers checked the box for the solid-lifter LT1, and this matching-numbers example is one of the survivors. Behind the modest badge sits a small-block built to rev, paired with a four-speed and none of the comfort options that softened lesser Corvettes. Here’s what made the LT1 the enthusiast’s choice the year emissions rules started closing in.

Dodge Super Bee 1971 440 Six Pack

by Kiril

The 1971 Dodge Super Bee’s 440 Six Pack used three carburetors instead of one, but only the center barrel actually fired during everyday driving — the other two stayed closed until the driver demanded full power. Paired with a fiberglass hood pinned down like a race car’s, it was one of the last big-block options Dodge offered before retiring the Super Bee name for good. Total production that year barely topped 5,000 cars.

1971 BOSS 351 at Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals

by Kiril

V8TV’s cameras catch a 1971 BOSS 351 Mustang on display at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals in Chicago, part of a themed showcase built around one of Ford’s most overlooked performance models. Overshadowed for decades by the BOSS 302 and BOSS 429, the 351 is finally getting the collector attention its handling and Cleveland V8 always deserved. Watch to see why MCACN chose to give it the spotlight.

Aston Martin DBS – An Irrational Desire

by Kiril

Aston Martin’s DBS doesn’t look like a typical Aston — its squared grille and fastback tail borrowed more from American muscle car design than English tradition. That unusual shape hid a V8 upgrade in 1969 that briefly made it the fastest four-seat production car in the world, and a starring role as James Bond’s car the same year. Here’s how a British grand tourer ended up channeling Detroit.

Scarce ’64 Pontiac Catalina Station Wagon!

by Kiril

A scarce 1964 Pontiac Catalina Station Wagon has turned up parked on a street in Montreal, caught on camera by the channel Retroolschool in exactly the kind of unscripted spotting that makes classic car hunting fun. Full-size wagons like this one were built by the thousands and scrapped by the tens of thousands, which makes any survivor in this condition a genuine rarity. Watch to see what’s left of one of Pontiac’s toughest haulers.

Ford Mustang 1967 Fastback 408 cui Stroker

by Kiril

Plenty of 1967 Mustang fastbacks that look bone-stock at a car show are hiding a very different engine underneath — a 351 Windsor stretched to 408 cubic inches with a stroker crankshaft. Built right, the combination can push past 400 horsepower at the rear wheels while still fitting in the same engine bay as the factory small-block. Here’s how builders turn a common Ford block into a genuine sleeper.

This is the Only Factory Convertible 1967 Shelby GT 500 Mustang

by Kiril

Ford built exactly one 1967 Shelby GT500 convertible, then decided not to build a second — pushing the body style back to the following model year instead. Carroll Shelby claimed the lone survivor as his own company car, loaning it out to friends, employees, and Ford executives for months before its true rarity was widely understood. Painted Candyapple Red and carrying Shelby serial number 0139, it remains one of a kind. Here’s the story behind the only factory GT500 convertible Ford ever made for 1967.
