Builder Tom Bailey’s 1969 Camaro, ‘Sick Seconds 2.0,’ pairs twin 94mm turbochargers and a stated 4000-horsepower target with power windows, cup holders, and a plan to drive it home from the track. Bailey is chasing 300 mph in the standing mile and a 5.5-second quarter mile, numbers usually reserved for dedicated Pro Mod drag cars, not anything with a working glovebox. Watch how a street-legal Camaro is being built to compete with cars that never see a public road.
We researched 5 top Drive-On Lift Ramps options on Amazon — here are the ones worth buying for your muscle car, ranked by ratings and real buyer feedback.
This 1968 Chevrolet Corvette carries the rare RPO L89 aluminum-head 427, a factory option that trimmed weight without giving up the 435-horsepower rating of the more common L71. Finished in Polar White with a 4-speed manual and well under 10,000 original miles, it is one of the best-preserved examples of Chevrolet’s most exclusive big-block Corvette option. Watch to see why V8TV dedicated a full episode to it.
Every September, Mid-Michigan Motorplex fills with matching-numbers Hemis, factory Ram Air Firebirds, and original-owner Buick GSXs — and none of them are allowed real modifications. Here’s how 125 untouched muscle cars turned a strict rulebook into one of drag racing’s most authentic weekends.
A Mustang-focused winterizing guide breaks down the four systems — fuel, battery, tires, and moisture — that quietly wreck a stored classic over a single cold season. Skip any one of them and spring arrives with an expensive surprise.
This 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T showed up at the 2013 Pigeon Forge Rod Run wearing a 426 HEMI badge, one of the rarest engine options Dodge ever put in a midsize body, and got nothing more than a quick, unscripted walk-around. No narration, no backstory, just a camera and a car worth stopping for. What that raw footage reveals, and what separates a documented HEMI Coronet from the clones that outnumber them, comes down to details most people would walk right past.
Ford handed Carroll Shelby a brand-new Mustang platform in 1965 and let him tear it apart. The result was a race-ready fastback most buyers were not quite prepared for. Roughly 560 were built that first year, each one rebuilt with a stiffer chassis, a hotter 289, a deleted rear seat, and none of the compromises a regular Mustang made. Read on to find out what separated a genuine 1965 GT350 from the car it started as, and why that distinction matters so much today.
Every Memorial Day, a parking lot behind a Sacramento museum fills with a very particular kind of car, one built less for daily driving and more for making a statement. The 8th Annual Vettes & Vets show pairs two things California car culture takes seriously. Read on to find out what the event is actually raising money for.
A Demon spinning its tires looks like ordinary internet content until you understand what is happening underneath. This was the first production car with a TransBrake, the first delivered from the factory on drag radials, and the first with an air conditioning system repurposed to chill its own intake air. The burnout was not showing off, it was a required procedure. Read on for what made the 840-horsepower Challenger genuinely unprecedented.
MotorWeek’s John Davis takes Dodge’s 840-horsepower Challenger SRT Demon to the one place it was actually built for — a drag strip — and comes away with a Guinness World Record-setting wheelie on camera. Commenters call it a milestone episode, tracing Davis’s career all the way back to a very different MotorWeek review: a 1992 Pontiac Firehawk once described as “barely street legal” with 340 horsepower.
One careful owner put just 17,000 miles on this 1966 Chevrolet Nova SS before the current owner tracked it down and restored it — and it’s a genuine, factory-built SS, not a badge job. Low-mile survivors like this one are rare precisely because most Novas of this era got driven hard and used up. Read on to find out what makes an original like this one different from anything else on the market.
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.
This 1967 Dodge Coronet R/T carries a factory badge and a nowhere-near-factory heart: a 528 cubic inch Ray Barton Hemi making more than 809 horsepower on pump gas, backed by a TorqueFlite automatic and 3.55 gears built for real street use. One viewer joked the car needed eight gas station stops just to survive filming. Behind the joke is a genuinely serious build from one of Mopar’s most respected engine shops. Watch to see what 809 pump-gas horsepower actually looks like in motion.
