Plymouth Barracuda V-8 1965 images

Get ready to rev your engines as we zoom into the world of the 1965 Plymouth Barracuda V-8! This compact beast rides on the Valiant “A” platform, boasting a rear window so massive it could double as a sunroof for giants. While American models flaunt a 225 cu in slant-6 engine, our northern neighbors cruise with a 170 cu in version. And if you crave more power, the 273 cu in V8 with a two or four-barrel option has you covered. It’s like choosing between a double cheeseburger and a quadruple stack!

2+2 = FAST! One of the Rarest Pontiac’s of the 60’s Beats 67 Barracuda w/ 383

by Pat C

In June 1976, cruising Gratiot Avenue, I was sure my beefed-up ’67 Barracuda was unbeatable—until a Pontiac 2+2 convertible rolled up. With a 421 tri-power engine, it left me red-faced and $50 lighter. This rare beast, a big brother to the GTO, packed 376 HP and 461 ft. lbs. of torque. Though never hitting GTO sales, it wowed with dual exhausts and heavy-duty springs. The 2+2 even tried a comeback in ’86, but like my race victory that day, it was short-lived!

Oldsmobile owned 36% of American car market in 1903 with 4,000 produced.

by Ross Mills

Back in 1903, Oldsmobile was the king of the American car jungle, boasting a whopping 36% of the market with just 4,000 cars. That’s right, they were cruising past the competition like a leisurely Sunday drive. Today, we might laugh at those numbers, but back then, Oldsmobile was the bee’s knees, the cat’s pajamas, and the talk of the town. Fast forward to 1968, and Oldsmobile was still turning heads with sleek models like the 442, proving they knew how to keep the wheels of time spinning in style.
