The Hudson Hornet wasn’t just a car; it was a NASCAR legend, zooming through the ’50s and leaving competitors eating dust. With drivers like Marshall Teague, this “Fabulous” beast won 40 out of 48 races, showing off its lowered design and 170hp engine. It even made a star turn as Doc Hudson in Disney-Pixar’s “Cars.” And while it’s no longer tearing up tracks, you can find it gleaming on display at the Ypsilanti Automotive Heritage Museum, ready to race into our hearts once more!
In the early days of muscle madness, the 1970 Plymouth Superbird was the king of the asphalt jungle, flaunting a wing so big it could double as a dining table. Born in the era when carmakers decided that subtlety was overrated, the Superbird zoomed into the spotlight with a 426 Hemi under its hood. It was a time when horsepower was measured in smiles per gallon, and the Superbird delivered with a side of high-speed hilarity, leaving its competition eating dust and questioning their life choices.
