Chrysler built only 22 1971 Dodge Super Bees with the 426 Hemi, and only 9 of those got a 4-speed manual. Separately, just 9 known ’71 Super Bees left the factory with a power sunroof — a nearly-$500 option that mandated a full vinyl top. Whether any single car sits at the overlap of all three is a question the historical record can’t quite settle. Watch to see the numbers behind one of the rarest combinations in Mopar history.
Lee bought a burned-out Dodge Demon at a Las Vegas salvage auction with no idea what he was getting into — then decided to give it something Dodge never offered on any Demon: a manual transmission. The full build video covers every setback along the way, from fire damage to the wiring fights that came with it. The ScrapLife family documents the whole thing in detail.
David Freiburger and Steve Dulcich built The Red Duster, a budget 1971 Plymouth Duster with a 360 and a four-speed, on Roadkill Garage — then Freiburger hit the road to visit Dulcich once the wrenching wrapped up. A 2023 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack giveaway rides along with the build. It’s a low-buck muscle car with a surprisingly high-value payoff.
TheTopher takes a 2016 Dodge Challenger SRT 392 for a POV drive built around a single modification — a resonator delete aimed purely at exhaust note, captured with binaural microphones for headphone listeners. At 485 horsepower and a 4.7-second 0-60, the naturally aspirated 392 still holds its own against its Hellcat-badged sibling. The sound alone makes the case.
Plymouth’s Barracuda beat the Mustang to market by two weeks in April 1964 — and then spent a decade figuring out how to actually compete with it. This rundown traces the nameplate from its Valiant-based debut through the 1970 E-body reinvention, the Hemi ‘Cuda and AAR ‘Cuda, and the four-headlight 1971 restyle, ending with Barracuda production’s quiet close in 1974. Watch to see how a footnote became one of the most valuable muscle cars ever built.
Dodge built the A12-package 1969 Super Bee to deliver near-Hemi drag strip performance for a fraction of the Hemi’s cost — a triple-carbureted 440, a raw fiberglass hood, and, on this particular restored example, the Butterscotch color enthusiasts single out as the best A12 shade available. Fewer than two thousand were ever built. Watch to see why Mopar specialists still treat this package as a genuine engineering achievement.
Dennis Collins has turned a weekly cup of coffee and a walk through his Texas warehouse into appointment viewing, but episode 201 of Coffee Walk revealed something even his regular audience hadn’t seen: a personal collection built entirely around American muscle, with zero exotics in sight. Watch to see what’s been kept under wraps.
Julia parked her 1970 Plymouth Barracuda convertible in 2003 after a minor fender bender left her too overwhelmed to deal with the repairs — and it sat for twenty-three years. When Hagerty’s Driveway Finds crew finally got the call, the durable 318 small-block came back to life faster than anyone expected. What didn’t come back so easily was Julia’s reaction to seeing it running again. Watch to see her response.
Richard Boehl has owned his 1971 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Six Pack — part of a production run reported at just 98 cars — since 1986, and he’s collected plenty of speeding tickets along the way. Filmed at Carlisle Events for My Car Story with Lou Costabile, this Concours-caliber Charger runs a triple-carburetor big block that sounds nothing like a standard four-barrel setup. Watch to hear it, and hear Boehl’s stories, for yourself.
A 1965 Dodge Monaco spent roughly forty years buried and forgotten before Dylan McCool’s team pulled it back into the light — and paired it with a second wrecked car nobody else wanted. What followed was a fully custom body swap and a budget Hemi build that reportedly turned a profit instead of draining one. Fans in the comments are already asking for a sequel. See how two written-off cars became one running Hemi-powered Monaco.
Rich Fairservis spent most of his life buying the cars he wanted, one at a time — and the result is a warehouse holding six Dodge Demon 170s making a combined 6,150 horsepower, plus a Viper from every generation ever built. Photographer Larry Chen was let inside to document it. One viewer even stumbled onto the building by accident, driving for Uber nearby. See what a lifetime of deliberate collecting actually looks like up close.
This 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner was bought to be wrecked on camera — positioned as the car Letty rolls in Fast and Furious. The crash scene never happened, and the car disappeared until builder Jamie, who got a Roadrunner tattoo at thirteen, brought it back as what one host calls one of the best restomods he’s ever filmed. See how a movie stunt double became a driver’s car.
Aedan’s family bought this 1970 Plymouth Duster 340 new — and nobody had driven it in thirty years. Tom’s Refurb brought it back to life in a single week, rust patches and all, ending with a burnout that had viewers’ jaws on the floor. One commenter, a mechanic with fifty-four years of experience, said he’d never been more impressed. See how a generational survivor got its attitude back.
This 1968 Dodge Charger restomod has drawn reactions in at least six languages since it went up, with viewers calling its blacked-out grille everything from menacing to vampiric. Underneath the coke-bottle body line sits a fully modernized chassis and an exhaust note tuned to sound as aggressive as the car looks. The build description calls it a fusion of vintage muscle and modern engineering. See the finished Charger in motion to judge for yourself.
Throttle House hosts Thomas and James put an 807-horsepower 2020 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock through its paces on a closed test track, running the supercharged Hemi hard enough to draw quarter-mile times in the 11-second range. Priced at $106,645 CAD, the Super Stock sits atop the Hellcat family as one of the most extreme factory-built muscle cars Dodge ever sold. The review doubles as a farewell note, arriving as the gas-powered Challenger’s production run was nearing its end. Comments below split between nostalgia for Dodge’s V8 commitment and complaints about the car’s brakes and traction struggling to match its power.
