Jeff Lutz, Daddy Dave, Murder Nova, Kye Kelley, and a stacked field of Street Outlaws names raced for a $100,000 purse at a small-tire event in Kentucky — and only one driver walked away with the cash. 1320video’s coverage also carries a quieter thread running through the comments: fans paying tribute to Kyle, a figure the community is still mourning. Watch to see who takes home the money, and who gets knocked out early.
A 1958 Mercury Montclair riding on the base 383 V8 doesn’t get the attention that the 430-powered cars do, but it should. Mercury built the 383 to prove it could hang with Detroit’s biggest engines, backing it with 330 horsepower and a Holley four-barrel at a time when quad headlights and pillarless Phaeton styling were the whole point of buying a Mercury. It’s a genuine slice of late-’50s excess, and this particular survivor is a good excuse to revisit why that year mattered.
A Dodge Challenger with over 1,000 horsepower rolls into Doug DeMuro’s driveway, but the real story turns out to be a $10,000 optional sunroof, back seats you have to pay extra to reinstall, and an owner who spends half the review refusing to give his own name. The Demon 170 is the most powerful Challenger Dodge has ever sold — watch to find out why Doug still only gave it a 7 out of 10 for fun.
This 1963 Chevy Nova, built into a clean street rod, turned heads at a car meet in Laval, Quebec, filmed by a channel known for catching cars exactly as they appear rather than staging formal walkarounds. One commenter’s question about the car’s Canadian cousin, the Pontiac Acadian Canso, opens up a corner of GM history most American enthusiasts never learn. See the full build and judge the stance for yourself.
Julia parked her 1970 Plymouth Barracuda in 2003 after a fender bender left her too overwhelmed to fix it, and it sat untouched for 22 years. Hagerty’s Brito and Dustin track down the car, revive its original 318 V8, and get Julia back behind the wheel of a car tied to a friendship that goes back to 1967. Watch to see why viewers are calling this the most emotional Driveway Finds episode yet.
By day this red, white, and blue Javelin was Car #3, dicing it out in SCCA Trans-Am with Mustangs and Camaros that outnumbered AMC ten to one. By off-season it became a test mule for one of the sharpest operations in American racing. Read on to find out what Penske’s people found when they finally put this car on the stopwatch.
TheStraightPipes reviews the 807-horsepower Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye Jailbreak at $128,545 CAD, and it turns into something closer to a eulogy than a spec-sheet breakdown. Viewers are calling it the channel’s most comprehensively edited Hellcat video yet, built around a supercharger whine they say never gets old and a reviewer’s kid who sums up the whole car in one word. Watch to see Dodge’s V8 send-off before the Hellcat era officially ends.
Project Cool Blue’s ’65 Coronet hides an 825-horsepower Ray Barton Hemi under a deliberately unremarkable exterior, but the trickiest part of staying invisible isn’t the engine, it’s feeding it fuel without giving anything away. The team turned to a fuel system originally built to solve the same problem in modern Corvettes, adapted to fit inside a decades-old stock gas tank. No visible fuel cell, no whining pump, no giveaway hanging underneath. Read on to find out how a shallow foam baffle keeps an 800-horsepower secret completely silent.
No power adders, no aftermarket engine swaps, no cheating allowed: just two genuinely stock muscle cars from two different eras, lined up side by side at a drag strip built entirely around one strict rule. A rare COPO-built 427 Chevelle and a compact Plymouth Duster 340 went head to head at this event, and the comment section is already arguing about whether either car was actually as stock as advertised.
The sixth-generation Camaro ZL1 backs up its supercharged reputation with a factory-certified top speed few people expect from a car that still has back seats. A 650-horsepower LT4, an optional $1,595 10-speed automatic co-developed with Ford, and a quarter mile in the 11s all point toward one number: 198 mph. Read on to see how Chevrolet got a four-seat coupe there, and why the automatic is the quick one.
Over a thousand cars showed up to a fountain-side park in Fountain Hills, Arizona, and somehow a Lamborghini Miura still wasn’t the car everyone in the comments wanted to talk about most. Vipers, a genuine Ferrari Testarossa, and a rare Aston Martin continuation car all made appearances, but it’s the sheer variety packed into one Arizona morning that keeps viewers coming back to this exact upload every year.
This 1950 Plymouth Deluxe sedan represents the affordable half of a two-trim lineup that also included the more upscale Special Deluxe, all built on Chrysler’s value-first postwar platform. Its 217.8 cubic-inch inline-six wasn’t built to win any horsepower arguments, and it didn’t need to — Plymouth reportedly finished second only to Ford’s six-cylinder in the 1950 Mobilgas Economy Run. In an era when demand for any new car outstripped supply, that kind of practical engineering is exactly what kept buyers lining up.
The 1961 Pontiac Tempest looks like an ordinary early-’60s compact until you learn what Pontiac stuffed under the hood: a four-cylinder that was literally half of the division’s 389 V8, sharing tooling and parts to keep costs down. Buyers who wanted more could step up to a rare aluminum 215 V8, but the Trophy 4 alone made this one of the cleverest cost-engineering stories of the era. Six decades later, survivors like this one are a reminder that Pontiac was already thinking differently before the GTO ever existed.
Long before any color coat goes on, a car’s paint job is decided by how well the epoxy primer stage is handled, and Louie of First Generation Garage walks through exactly how he sprays it in color. Longtime viewers caught a small continuity detail, a properly masked fuel door, that only makes sense to regulars. The satin blue preview hints at where this build is headed next. Watch the full process from mix to spray gun.
Junkyard Digs picked up a 1969 GTO Judge built from a mismatch of parts so thorough that fans nicknamed it “The Magistrate” rather than pretend it was ever a clean survivor. A running joke about self-tapping screws has already outlived the video itself, and a viewer’s note on piston knurling filled in a technical detail the hosts never fully explained. Watch part two of the restoration and see how far the Judge has come.
