At the 2026 NHRA Rocky Mountain Nationals in Edmonton, the 3,500-horsepower Yeti Chevelle went head-to-head with Mike Gondziola’s Terminator and Sander Spelt’s Bunker Junker through a full weekend of Pro Modified eliminations. The coverage runs from Thursday test-and-tune through Saturday’s final round. It’s proof that regional Pro Mod racing delivers just as much spectacle as any national event.
This 1940 Ford four-door was built in the very last year of a body design that had defined the brand since 1937, right before an all-new look arrived for 1941. Under its formal sedan skin sits the same 221-cubic-inch flathead V8 architecture that would later power a generation of hot rods. Here is why 1940 was such a pivotal, overlooked year for Ford.
Musclecars Universe returned to Masterton Motorplex for Wild Bunch NZ vs. The World, an outlaw doorslammer showcase running old-school drag cars and hotrods head-to-head for bragging rights. An hour of footage covers everything from rotary-powered underdogs to Top Alcohol cars chasing five-second passes. It’s proof New Zealand’s grassroots drag scene rivals anything happening stateside.
TheTopher takes a 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT 392 for a POV drive built around a single modification — a resonator delete aimed purely at exhaust note, captured with binaural microphones for headphone listeners. At 485 horsepower and a 4.7-second 0-60, the naturally aspirated 392 still holds its own against its Hellcat-badged sibling. The sound alone makes the case.
In February 2013, two brothers went looking for one very specific car: an unrestored 1971 Hemi ‘Cuda in a screaming factory color, with its original build sheet, a four-speed, and one owner from new. Plymouth built only 114 of these for the entire model year, and just 7 convertibles. What the brothers found inside three weeks turned out to be exactly what they were chasing. Read on to see how rare this car really is.
Few cars have built a show-field culture as devoted as the Mustang’s, with one owners’ club alone claiming more than 11,000 members. From a record-setting 1964 debut to a Hollywood-fueled mythology, here’s what turned an affordable pony car into a six-decade car show fixture.
This Old Car digs up a 1970 Motor Trend test of the redesigned Torino Cobra 429 Super Cobra Jet — numbers fast enough to beat a 1970 Pontiac GTO 455 in period testing. Ford’s aircraft-inspired redesign added five inches of length and real performance credibility most muscle car fans have since forgotten. The data alone makes a case for reconsidering it.
The third-generation Corvette ran for fifteen model years without a full redesign, longer than any generation before or since, while watching horsepower ratings collapse under new emissions rules almost the entire time it was on sale. Read on to find out how a car built on a Mako Shark II concept survived that transition — and which rare option is worth more than most entire classic cars.
Autotrader’s Rory imports a 797-horsepower, left-hand-drive Hellcat Redeye to answer one genuinely practical question: can it actually work as a daily driver on British roads? Between narrow lanes, tight roundabouts, and a supercharger bigger than most European engines, the answer isn’t obvious going in. One longtime UK owner says it’s been worth every complication since 2015, and the review explains why.
A 1965 Ford F100 sat forgotten under a stand of trees for years before its new owners realized what they’d inherited with the property. No brakes, a stubborn shifter, and decades of neglect should have meant a dead truck — instead, the old six-cylinder fired right up. Find out what kept it alive for half a century.
This 1969 Shelby GT500 footage from the Monterey Motorsports Festival captures why Carroll Shelby’s 428 Cobra Jet-powered Mustang still anchors muscle car conversations more than five decades later. The long-nosed silhouette and racing stripes announced its intentions before the engine ever did. Viewers call it drag-strip ready on sight — and the history backs that instinct up.
We researched top floor jack and jack stand options on Amazon — here are the ones worth buying for your muscle car, ranked by ratings and real buyer feedback.
A split-bumper 1970 Camaro rolls onto the dyno wearing a set of Flowmasters, and the numbers on the screen end up mattering less than what comes out of the exhaust. Viewers keep coming back to this clip years later, some just for the sound and others hunting for tire specs. There’s more to this build than a routine pull.
This Mercury Cyclone spans the full 1964-1972 run of a car that never got the recognition of its Ford Torino cousin — despite a limited NASCAR homologation special, a dashboard owners still rave about decades later, and a street reputation for embarrassing cars that outclassed it on paper. Owners in the comments share three generations of family memories tied to the badge. Watch to see why a car this capable stayed this overlooked.
Every car at this drag race has to leave the line the way it left the factory — original engine, original exhaust, no shortcuts. This year’s two-day coverage from Mid Michigan Motorplex mixes in-car and drone footage of a 1970 Hemi ‘Cuda, a 455-powered Pontiac T-37, an AMC Hornet SC 360, and a 454 Corvette, all running bone stock against each other. Watch to see which factory legend actually backs up its brochure numbers.
