Picture a single parking lot holding a Yenko Camaro, a GTO Judge, a Smokey and the Bandit tribute Trans Am, and well over a hundred more genuine muscle cars and hot rods, all in one afternoon. That’s the Street Machine Nationals in St. Paul, Minnesota — one of the biggest gatherings of its kind in the country. With a list of cars this long, the challenge isn’t finding something worth stopping for, it’s knowing where to look first. Watch the full walkthrough.
This 1970 Plymouth GTX in Tor Red paint pairs the rare 440 Six Barrel engine with a four-speed manual, a combination that found few buyers when new. Plymouth built only 678 GTXs with the Six Barrel option that year, split between automatic and manual transmissions, while the mechanically similar Road Runner outsold the GTX by more than five to one. Owner Tom Bright had been searching for this exact car for years.
This 1965 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S has just 5,804 original miles — and after two careful owners spanning nearly six decades, this was its first car show ever. Owner Ron George’s dad got him and his brother into Mopars as kids, and this unrestored survivor even has commenters debating a muffler note that later model years reportedly lost. Watch to see what nearly six decades of restraint actually looks like.
