1968 Dodge Coronet Gets Rear Tracks, Becomes A Muscle Snowmobile

Take a genuine 1968 Dodge Coronet, strip off the rear wheels, and bolt on a pair of snowmobile tracks, and you get a machine that shouldn’t work but somehow does. This half-track conversion trades quarter-mile bragging rights for the ability to plow through drifts most trucks wouldn’t attempt, built by a hobbyist working almost entirely from scratch. Half-track conversions have a strange, scattered history in American car culture — finding one wearing a genuine muscle car body is rarer still. Read on to find out what makes this build so unusual.

This 1970 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda convertible isn’t just rare — it’s the very first of only fourteen ever built, wearing Rallye Red paint, a black top, and the Shaker hood scoop that came standard on every Hemi ‘Cuda. Underneath sits the legendary 426 Hemi V8, rated at 425 horsepower and fed by dual four-barrel carburetors. Decades later, it remains one of the most sought-after Mopars in existence. See what makes serial number one worth more than the other thirteen.

A Low-Mileage Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack Is a Steal for Less Than $33,000

by Kiril

While six-figure Demon markups and Hellcat mania grabbed every headline, the Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack quietly kept doing nearly everything the halo cars do. This low-mileage example, which has already changed hands once, packs a genuine 485 horsepower from its naturally aspirated 6.4-liter 392 Hemi V8, all for less than 33,000. Read on to see why enthusiasts increasingly call the Scat Pack the smartest buy in the entire modern Challenger lineup.

Video: Muscle Car Burnout Party Went Crazy!

by Kiril

This thirty-minute compilation from Vantaa Cruising, a recurring car meet in Tikkurila, Finland, captures a night of burnouts, custom hot rods, and modified American muscle that one Oregon-based commenter admitted could never happen back home. There’s not a single Mustang in the lineup, but there is a rubber duck mounted as a hood ornament. Watch to see how seriously Finland’s underground muscle car scene takes American car culture.

Shelby Cobra Drifting In The Living Room, Divorce Ensues

by Wes

A Shelby Cobra doing donuts on what looks like an office floor, filmed back in 2011, comes with a title that gives away exactly how things ended at home. Behind the joke is one of the most significant nameplates in American performance car history, Carroll Shelby’s lightweight, big-block giant-killer that’s spawned a massive replica culture since original examples became nearly unobtainable. See why this clip still finds new viewers well over a decade later.

5 Vintage Convertibles You Can Score for Under $10,000

by Kiril

Under-$10,000 classic convertibles aren’t a myth — Alfa Romeo Spiders, droptop Beetles, and even 1970s-80s Mercedes SLs regularly sell for less than a new economy car. The catch is knowing which cars are genuinely affordable to own versus which just look that way on the price tag, and a pre-purchase inspection is the cheapest insurance you’ll ever buy.

Breakdown/Review: 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge Convertible

by Wes

The Brothers Collection’s 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge convertible carries a claim few muscle cars can match: it’s believed to be the last drop-top Judge Pontiac built for the entire model year. Host Kevin Oeste digs into the Ram Air III 400, the correct late-production color, and the small originality details that back up the story. One viewer’s decades-old memory of spotting this exact color as a kid says just as much about the car as the spec sheet does.

WWE Stars With Their Classic Muscle Cars – Here Are Our Best Picks

by Kiril

John Cena’s 1966 Dodge Hemi Charger is not just famous because he owns it. Dodge built only 468 Chargers with the 426 Hemi that first year, making it one of the rarest first-generation Chargers in existence. Cena has kept it unmodified, running its factory 425-horsepower specification more than half a century later. His collection also reveals a pattern common among WWE stars: a preference for loud, powerful American iron over European exotics. It’s a collecting style that mirrors the persona built in the ring.

One former owner of a nearly identical example says he used to beat 454-powered Chevelles with it. Watch to see what made this coupe utility a genuine muscle car in disguise.

Teenager Drove Muscle Cars from his Grandfather’s Dealership

by Pat C

A grandfather who sold used cars for 60 years, a mom who beat the neighborhood Corvette owner in a full-size Pontiac, and a dad who won a drag race at 69 — this is a family where muscle cars run three generations deep. From a Mach 1 Mustang to a Dodge Super Bee to a 2016 Mustang GT painted in a nod to Steve McQueen’s Bullitt car, the cars change but the obsession never has.

Ford Gran Torino 1973 images

by Ross Mills

Ford reshaped its mid-size muscle car for 1973 to meet new federal bumper rules, and the redesign paid off with a 52 percent jump in production over 1971. Buyers could choose between a humble inline-six and a deeper bench of V8 options than you’d guess, with the sportiest Gran Torino Sport reserved for V8 power only. The changes pushed the Torino ahead of its longtime rival, the Chevrolet Chevelle, in Fords ongoing battle for intermediate muscle car sales.

1968 Dodge Charger Junkyard Find!

by Wes

This 1968 Dodge Charger was hidden so deep in an old junkyard it wasn’t even visible from the road — and it might still be sitting there if a family hadn’t decided to buy it on the spot. The car’s condition surprised viewers, but the real standout was a young kid confidently correcting an adult’s Super Bee trivia. Watch to see the find and the moment that had everyone talking.
