A Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody gets turned loose on a stretch of German Autobahn with no posted limit, clawing toward 185 mph. Partway through the run, a phone breaks free from its mount — and the driver makes a split-second call viewers are still talking about. Here’s what the run reveals about America’s fastest four-door.
Ford is bringing Fox Body-era styling back to the 2026 Mustang GT Premium with a new FX Appearance Package that costs just ,690. It is not only cosmetic either — larger brake rotors, four-piston fixed calipers, and a fastback-only spoiler come bundled with the retro white trim. Boston Auto Blog tested one at a Massachusetts Ford dealer, and the video’s own comment section revealed more of the spec sheet than the review did.
A 1969 Chevy Nova rolled into Roadkill Garage as a bare shell — and rolled out packing more than 1,000 horsepower. Hosts David Freiburger and Steve Dulcich built the entire street/strip package from scratch, then hauled it straight to the track to see if the numbers held up. Fans are calling it one of the show’s best comebacks yet.
A 1969 Yenko Camaro and a 1970 Ford Torino Super Cobra Jet squared off under strict factory-stock rules — no headers, no lightweight parts, nothing but what rolled off the assembly line. One car gave up 412 pounds and 75 horsepower on paper. The finish line told a much closer story than the spec sheet promised.
A 1969 Dodge Dart Swinger spent decades hidden in a garage before anyone heard its 340 run again. Chrysler rated the small-block at just 275 horsepower — enthusiasts have spent 50 years insisting that number is a lie. Here’s what happened when this rough, unrestored survivor finally came back to life.
Jeff Lutz’s twin-turbo, 3,000-horsepower ’57 Chevy squared off again against Alex Taylor’s street-driven ’55 at the 2026 Tri-Five Nationals — and the power gap didn’t tell the whole story. Fans who expected a lopsided pass instead got a race close enough to argue about for days. Here’s what makes these two Tri-Five builds, and the family history behind them, worth knowing.
A 1972 Chevy Nova that spent four decades sinking into the dirt gets a second chance in Hagerty’s newest budget build. Restoration duo Dustin Hallinan and John Brito set themselves a brutal number: bring it back to life for less than $5,000. What they find underneath says a lot about what’s still possible in today’s classic car market.
Off a quiet road in Melbourne, Florida sits a 123,000-square-foot building holding more than 420 American muscle cars insured at an estimated $32 million — and it’s barely open to the public. One YouTuber talked his way inside for a full walkthrough that’s since pulled in over 3 million views. The collector behind it made his fortune in pet pharmaceuticals, not cars, and built the place to stop history from disappearing. Read on to find out how veterans get in free.
The 1966 Toronado was the first front-wheel-drive American car in almost 30 years, and Oldsmobile packed it with oddities nobody else was building: a speedometer drum that rolls like a slot machine, headlights that disappear, and a completely flat floor. An 18-minute walkaround of a stunning survivor shows every one of them up close.
Chevrolet’s cheapest full-size car could be ordered with the 425-horsepower L72 427, the strongest engine the brand sold in 1966, and only 1,856 of those engines went into the entire big-car line. Muscle Car Campy drives a factory-correct example and then hands the keys to a 454 resto-mod built on the same plain-sedan formula.
The 1970 AMC Rebel Machine put 340 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of 390 V8 torque into a mid-size body for ,475, ran a 14.4-second quarter mile, and wore a hood scoop with the tachometer mounted inside it. AMC built 2,326 and never made another. Here is why the smallest automaker in Detroit’s boldest muscle car vanished after one year.
A YouTuber dropped a supercharged Hellcat V8 into his 1968 Dodge Charger chasing 1,500 horsepower, and the swap didn’t go quietly — the torque twisted the chassis off the line and blew the supercharger’s intake apart before the video even wrapped. Here’s the story behind ‘Tater,’ one of the wilder modern Mopar engine swaps making the rounds this year.
A dust-covered 1963 Corvette Sting Ray came out of a barn on a detailing channel — and viewers immediately recognized it as one of the rarest Corvettes ever built. Its split rear window lasted exactly one model year before GM killed it, and today it drives six-figure auction prices. But it was the story behind the car’s owner, surfaced entirely in the comments, that turned 587,000 views into something closer to a tribute.
