Originally a humble 6-cylinder, this beast now roars with a 520 HP, 454 engine under its tuxedo black hood. With a Ford nine-inch rear, Moser axles, and Hotchkiss suspension, it’s the car equivalent of a gym buff in a tux. Collecting trophies and turning heads, Jeffery’s hot rod is a testament to the art of muscle car magic—proof that age is just a number when you’re built like this!

The 1970 Plymouth 426 Hemi ‘Cuda wasn’t just a muscle car; it was the automotive equivalent of a peacock, strutting its stuff with bright colors and a shaker hood that screamed “look at me!” Under the hood, a 426-cubic-inch Hemi engine made this ‘Cuda a beast, admired even by die-hard Chevy and Ford fans. At $3,164 MSRP, it was a steal—until you added the Hemi for an extra $871.45. Throw in an AM radio with an eight-track for $196.25, and you’d be cruising in style, albeit 1970s style.
Rev up your engines and take a ride through Chevy’s legendary Big Block W series! From the 409’s thunderous entrance in ’61, celebrated in the Beach Boys’ hit “409,” to the mysterious 427, a drag racer’s dream and Daytona record-setter in ’63, these motors packed a punch. With horsepower soaring to 425, Chevy’s engines were the stuff of dreams—and maybe a few nightmares for competitors. As the ’60s roared on, the Turbo-Jet V8 brought even more power, leaving tire marks on history!
Get ready to rev up your engines with the Murder Nova at Lights Out 7! This beast, equipped with a Proline twin turbo Chevy big block motor and 88mm turbochargers, isn’t just here to make noise—it’s aiming for a scorching 4.20 1/8th mile pass! Will it leave the competition in the dust or just blow everyone away with its exhaust fumes? Grab your earplugs and hold on tight, because this Nova is about to murder the track in the most thrilling way possible!
Guy Carpenter, a teenage car enthusiast back in 1967, was so obsessed with Chevrolets that he practically lived at the local Chevy dealership. Everyone knew he was saving for more than just a jalopy; he had his eyes set on a 1969 Corvette with a beastly 427 engine. Fast forward, and under the hood of his 15,000-mile, unrestored 1969 Camaro Z/28, you’ll find the legendary Smokey Yunick parts—like finding a Picasso at a garage sale! Carpenter’s ride is a nostalgic nod to horsepower and history.
The Camaro ZL1 is not just a car; it’s a missile on wheels! While the manual version lets you rocket to 60 mph in first gear, for a mere $2395, Chevy offers the 10-speed automatic also found in Ford’s Raptor. This upgrade transforms your ZL1 into a 0-60 mph beast in just 3.5 seconds and conquers the quarter mile in 11.4 seconds at 127 mph. And let’s not forget, you’ll be flirting with a top speed of 198 mph, proving once again that the ZL1 isn’t just fast—it’s ludicrously so!
