Muscle Car Fan

Welcome to the exhilarating world of muscle cars!



A Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 lines up against an MD500 helicopter for a down-and-back drag race with real money on the line. One machine has grip, gears, and 470-plus horsepower on its side. The other never has to touch the ground. Watch to see which advantage wins.

Jeffrey Harkins bought this 1969 Ford Ranchero already dressed up as a low-rider, sagging on the wrong springs with side pipes bolted on for looks. Eight months of real work later, from suspension to floor pans to a swapped-in Mustang 302, it sits proud and ready for its first show. It’s a reminder that the best rescues aren’t about paint, they’re about undoing somebody else’s bad decisions first.

The 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS LS6 454 carried a factory rating of 450 horsepower and 500 lb-ft of torque, the highest gross horsepower GM ever officially assigned a muscle car. This feature breaks down exactly why that number happened in 1970 specifically, and why regulatory changes the following year made sure no muscle car would ever match it again in the same way. Even Mopar loyalists show up in the comments to give credit where it’s due. Watch to see the case laid out in full.

Bob Evans Classics went hunting for a 1985 Oldsmobile 442 G-Body, a car that spent decades as a true sleeper before G-body values started climbing across the board. What they found was a rare survivor with a story of its own, tangled up with rising interest in the whole G-body family — Monte Carlo SS, Buick Grand National, and now this often-overlooked Olds. The chase says as much about the market as the car itself.

A 6.0-liter LS truck engine doesn’t become a 6.2 with a few bolt-on parts, and this hands-on build video from Myvintageiron7512 shows exactly why, bore work, machine shop tolerances, and the same architecture GM used to build the LS3 that powers C6 Corvettes and fifth-gen Camaros. One viewer summed up the appeal simply: this is someone who clearly knows the platform inside and out. See what it actually takes to bridge the gap between a budget truck engine and genuine LS3-spec displacement.
