Get ready to rev your engines as we dive into the classic beauty of the 1967 Plymouth GTX! Sharing its DNA with the Belvedere and a rear end with the Satellite, this muscle car boasts a unique grill, a “pit stop” fuel filler cap, and an optional racing stripe package that screams speed. Under the hood, the “Super Commando” 440 engine churns out 375 hp, while the 426 Hemi engine offers extra zoom for just $545 more—probably cheaper than your last grocery bill! Thanks to Gateway Classic Cars for the drool-worthy pics!
Behold the Plymouth Belvedere RH2 1966, a car so iconic it should come with its own cape. Built on Chrysler’s “B” mid-sized body platform, this sixth-gen beauty offers engine choices like a buffet—ranging from a light 273 cu in engine to a monstrous 426 cu in Hemi V8. Whether you prefer automatic or manual, this muscle car is ready to rumble. Thanks to Gateway Classic Cars, we can drool over these images without leaving an oil stain on the floor.
The 1968 Plymouth Road Runner was Plymouth’s way of saying, “Who needs fancy when you can have fun?” Built on the Belvedere platform, this muscle car cut the frills to bring you pure speed at a bargain price. Its minimalist interior featured vinyl mats and a floor shifter with no console, but it did boast the iconic “Beep-Beep” horn from the Road Runner cartoons—a sound Plymouth paid Warner Brothers handsomely for. Initially a two-door coupe, its success led to a hardtop version later that year.
The 1967 Plymouth Satellite, riding high on the Chrysler “B” platform, was the Belvedere’s snazzy cousin, sporting a new grill and flashy taillights to boot. Not content with just good looks, this mid-priced charmer offered a choice between a 2-barrel or 4-barrel carburetor for its standard 383 engine. Available only as a 2-door hardtop or convertible, it’s like the Satellite was saying, “Who needs doors when you’ve got style?” A hearty thanks to Gateway Classic Cars for the snazzy pics—they’re out of this world!
Step right up, folks, and feast your eyes on the 1967 Plymouth GTX 440 CID 4 Speed Manual—a car so sleek, it could make a tortoise run for cover! With styling borrowed from the Satellite and performance that could give a cheetah inferiority complex, this beauty is no ordinary Belvedere! The Super Commando 440 engine puts out 375 hp, zooming from 0 to 60 mph faster than you can say “muscle car.” And if you’re feeling extra spicy, opt for the 426 Hemi and watch it shave seconds off your street cred!
