Jay Leno, the king of comedy, also reigns supreme in the muscle car world with his 1966 Dodge Coronet. This seemingly ordinary coupe secretly roars with a 426 Hemi under the hood, a nod to its beastly heart. As Leno cozies up to this piece of American horsepower history, it’s clear that while the car may have aged like fine wine, it still packs a punch that’s more like a shot of whiskey. Forget your average cup of joe; this ride’s fuel is pure adrenaline!
Meet the Ford Thunderbird 1957, Ford’s stylish retort to Chevy’s Corvette, but with more luxury and less vroom-vroom. In its third year, the ’57 T-bird got a spiffy makeover and packed a 312 cu in engine that could deliver a cool 245 hp. For those who thought that was a snooze, you could soup it up to 300 hp with a Paxton supercharger, making it the perfect car for a leisurely drive that says, “I could go fast… if I wanted to.” Thanks to Gateway Classic Cars for the drool-worthy pics!
Rev up your nostalgia engines as we cruise back to 1965, the year the Chevrolet Impala broke records and set hearts racing with over a million units sold! This iconic ride didn’t just break the mold; it smashed it to smithereens, becoming the car equivalent of a rockstar. Thanks to Gateway Classic Cars, we’ve got a gallery that could make any car enthusiast drool. Feast your eyes on these classic beauties, each shot capturing the Impala’s legendary charm in full throttle glory.
Step right up and feast your eyes on the 1934 Ford Cabriolet Convertible—a car so classic, it makes vintage look vintage! Under the hood, the Ford V8 flexes its muscles with a whopping 85 horsepower, just enough to make you feel like Bonnie and Clyde (without the whole police ambush bit). With 14 body style options, you can choose your own adventure—just not the three-window coupe, it got the boot this year. For those feeling fancy, the DeLuxe version offers pin striping and chrome horns, because why not accessorize your getaway car? Priced at $48,995, it’s a steal—minus the actual stealing part.
