The third-gen Chevrolet El Camino, 1968-1972, truly revved up the muscle car game with its Malibu-inspired style and Chevelle platform. In ’68, it flaunted options like posi-traction and a power disk brake for those who wanted to stop as impressively as they could go. The high-performance SS debuted, with engines roaring up to 375 bhp. By 1970, it could house a monstrous LS6 454 engine, racing through the quarter-mile in 13 seconds! Alas, emissions rules in ’71 took a bit of the vroom out of its zoom.

In the world of muscle cars, Pontiac’s lineup is like the cool cousin at family gatherings—everyone wants to hang out with them. The Grand Prix and Catalina are often overshadowed by their flashy sibling, the GTO. They’re like those sneaky underdogs in a race, packing the same powertrain potential but with a wallet-friendly price tag. Whether you’re hunting for a project car or a ready-to-roll classic, these Pontiacs offer the perfect blend of nostalgia and horsepower, all while keeping your budget intact.
