In the ever-thrilling world of 1960s NASCAR, the Ford Galaxie 500 was like the plucky underdog trying to shed a few pounds to keep up with the cool kids. By 1964, it had a makeover, sporting a more aerodynamic look to say, “Hey, I can run fast too!” With a slanted boxtop roof and a new 289 entry-level engine, it was ready to hit the tracks. And if you fancied a little more ‘vroom,’ there was the mighty 427 cu in engine, perfect for zipping past in style.

Beginning of the end for muscle cars-The USA enacts The Motor Vehicle Pollution and Control Act in 1965.

by Ross Mills

In 1965, the U.S. government decided to crash the muscle car party with The Motor Vehicle Pollution and Control Act, aiming to clean up the air and, unintentionally, break the hearts of car enthusiasts everywhere. As the law revved up, horsepower had to pump the brakes. Suddenly, muscle cars, like the iconic Mustang GT500, were forced to swap their roaring engines for quieter, more environmentally friendly alternatives—much to the dismay of rev-heads who preferred tire smoke over clean air.
