The 1967 Pontiac GTO got a modest styling refresh, but the real story was a single option buried on the order form: the L67 Ram Air 400, installed in just 56 convertibles out of more than 81,000 GTOs built that year. Higher-revving power, a Rochester Quadrajet carburetor, and a mid-year cylinder head change made it one of the most collectible GTOs ever built. Read on to find out what actually separated a genuine Ram Air car from an ordinary 1967 GTO.
This gold 1970 Chevelle wears SS trim over a 350 bored to 355 cubic inches, an Edelbrock carburetor, headers and a Flowmaster exhaust, plus Vintage Air and 17-inch wheels. It is a genuinely appealing driver, but the 1970 SS package tells a stricter story than most listings admit. Chevrolet did not offer a small block under an SS badge that year. Read on for what that means for the car and its value.
Only a few hundred genuine 427 Cobras were ever built, and nearly all of them disappeared into collections and auction houses decades ago. That means essentially every 427 Cobra you will actually see in traffic or at a track day is a replica, and this Factory Five built example makes the case for why that is not a compromise. With a real 427 side oiler, aluminum heads, dual quads, and roughly 2,400 pounds to move, it does the thing the original was famous for.
A homemade video shot at a small Michigan dragstrip in 2001 captures something the big-budget car shows almost never do: what grassroots Mopar racing actually looked like when nobody was performing for a camera crew. Pat Muscle Car Fan’s footage from Ubly Dragstrip is a time capsule of a scene that shaped how an entire generation of Mopar owners learned to race.
