The redesigning of Ford’s mid-size cars in 1970 did not get the response they were hoping. Experts claim that maybe they spent more time in NASCAR promoting the 69 model thus neglecting the newer model. However, the ’70 and ’71 models clearly had better interior and power; packing an impressive 250-hp, 351-cubic-inch (5.8 Litre) V-8 Engine.
1969 Pontiac GTO and 1973-76 Pontiac Trans Am

Featuring a colonnade style body, these mid-size cars were the last traditional mid-size GTO. Most of the builds packed a 230-hp, 400-cubic inch 6.6L V-8 with an optional 7.5L. However the squishy-nosed Grand Am became more popular, offering a sedan and coupe variation at a fair price.
1978 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 WS6

Late 70’s saw the influx of Trans Am prices though the less flashy Formula lagged behind. However, in 1978, the Formula introduced a 220-hp true Pontiac 400 6.6L V-8 model. Additionally, the WS6 handling package with four-wheel disc brakes and the stunning snowflake along wheels set it apart as a flashy yet affordable option.

Some Ford Galaxies were meant to be family cars... you know, smooth riding, quiet, fairly efficient utility cars indented to get the family from "A" to "B" with minimal fuss and in comfort. This one, however, is a little different. It's still a pretty comfortable ride, but thanks to it's no-frills package and dual-quad 427 and 4-speed driveline, you get to "B" much faster! #FordGalaxie ...

This video shows the real reason why we should all respect each other in traffic. If we are not respectful, at least we need to double check before cutting someone off. Who knows, maybe you can cut off the wrong guy? That`s certainly a possibility. That possibility is manifested into a reality in this video. It involves a very disrespectful lane switch. It all happened in #California on the I15 south/78 east merge during heavy traffic. We can all get a bit frustrated during heavy traffic, but we ...

The fastback #Mustang is a genre-definer when it comes to pony cars. The first real, iconic example was the 1964 ½ Mustang, and from there on out it was a battle of the brands with the Big Three in competition for the #street and the strip. The real winner of course, being the consumer.
