1967 Pontiac Firebird 400
Pontiac Motor Division (GM)
Magazine Ad, 1967.
Intro (Information Ahead, Don't Worry)
Believe it or not, I'm a Pontiac fanatic. My first two cars were Pontiacs (rip to my G6, and right now, I'm trying to revive my Formula🙏), and I still cry over any Pontiac I see on the streets or rotting away in random neighboring yards. I go to car shows often to see if I can spot the crown, the firebird. A lot of times, yes, but more than most times, it's always the Smokey and the Bandit classic (hey, I'm not complaining; the screaming chicken is a beaut).
I figured that, for my first car feature on this page, it'd be one of my favorites... from one of my favorite body decades.
Information
1967 was the first time we saw the Firebirds roll out, and thus, four generations ('67-'02) and four models (Firebird, Esprit, Formula, Trans Am) were born. A competitor to the Ford Mustang after the Chevrolet Corvair restyling f*cked up GM's wanting pony car victory, the Pontiac Firebird originally had a coke-bottle style (which later faded once Gen 2 was designed -- it's the '70s now, what can I say?) and the "Magnificent Five" (Firebird, Sprint, 326, HO, and 400) featured many different customizations. Interior colors featured Blue, Gold, Red, Black, and Parchment (not including seat colors, which are the same but differ seat choice), while the exterior had Starlight Black, Cameo Ivory, Montreux - Fathom - and Tyrol Blues, Signet Gold, Linden Green, Gulf - and Mariner Turquoises, Plum Mist, Burgundy, Silverglaze, Regimental Red, Champagne, and Montego Cream (not including top colors, which are the same but differ top choice).
Three of the "Magnificent Five" (326, HO, and 400) included a V8. The 400 had the highest horsepower, at 325hp / 4800rpm (Ram Air = 5200rpm) (400in3), and the max torque of 556nm / 3400rpm. Along with the Sprint and HO, it had the four-barrel carburetor. All were RWD and had hardtop or convertible options.
The car depicted above is a Firebird 400 convertible (if you brighten the photo, you can tell by the red oval-lined tires), which appears to be Regimental Red with a red Strato bucket seat interior.

Ford Thunderbird Apollo Concept, 1967. Five Apollo concept cars were created for Abercrombie & Fitch to bolster traffic in their 5 flagship stores. The new 5th generation T-Bird represented a major move upmarket as the Mustang had encroached on the Thunderbird’s market positioning. Ford were happy to provide A&F with the cars to generate publicity for the new generation model. The cars were finished in an exclusive Apollo Blue colour, and sent to long-time Ford customiser Dearborn Steel Tubing Company for “enhancement” and finishing, at a cost of $15,000 per unit (about $137,000 in 2022). In addition to the special paint and vinyl roof there was a gold anodised grille emblem, landau S-bars and badge work. Significantly the cars were fitted with prototype ASC sunroofs because there was no convertible 5th generation T-bird as there had been with all previous generations. Ford hoped the sunroof option would appease open-air enthusiasts though it didn’t become available until 1969. Also fitted were a quartz foglight, bespoke wheel covers and a trunk-mounted antennae to support the numerous wireless devices. Inside there was a custom-built full-length centre console including a radio-telephone, Philco colour TV, and dual reading lamps. Of the 5 cars built one was destroyed in transit to the San Francisco store but at least 3 of the others are still known to exist.

Ford Mustang Mach I
A Cammer-Powered 616 HP Ford Mustang Mach 1 – “The Sin City Shaker”
This unusual Ford Mustang Mach 1 is fitted with a rare Ford 427 “Cammer” engine, a V8 with single overhead cams per bank allowing higher RPM operation. Ford originally developed the engine to take on Chrysler’s 426 Hemi in the world of NASCAR.
A Mach 1 Mustang fitted with the 7.0 liter Ford pushrod V8 is a quick car by any standard, particularly in a straight line, but the use of the Cammer 7.0 liter V8 with its SOHC takes it up a few notches – from 335 hp to 616 hp.
Fast Facts – The Mach 1 And The Mighty Cammer V8
Ford developed the “Cammer” V8 in just 90 days in the early 1960 using their existing 427 FE pushrod V8 as a starting point. Their goal was to take on the Chrysler 426 Hemi V8 in NASCAR.
The final production Cammer engine had a single overhead cam per bank spun by a 6 ft long timing chain, and they produced 616 hp at 7,000 rpm and 515 lb ft torque at 3,800 rpm – up to 657 bhp with improved carburetors.
The Ford Mustang Mach 1 was introduced in 1968 as a higher performance version of the standard Mustang. It came with competition suspension and front and rear spoilers, but much of the package was focussed on the car’s looks.
No Cammer V8 engine was fitted to a production car by Ford in period, but this hasn’t stopped enthusiasts from doing their own engine swaps. The car you see here has been professionally converted, looking like a factory-built Cammer Mach 1 might have, had Ford ever built one.
The “90 Day Wonder” – Ford’s Cammer V8
When Ford engineers set out to develop a new V8 to challenge the Chrysler 426 Hemi V8 in the fiercely competitive world of NASCAR racing they knew they had their work cut out for them.
Tumblr media
To both simplify and speed up the development process they started with a preexisting engine block – the race-proven 427 FE pushrod V8. The block was modified and a pair of new heads were designed that, very unusually for an American V8 at the time, had a single overhead cam per bank.
Single and double overhead cam engines had largely been the realm of the Europeans, specifically the Italians, Brits, and Germans. Compared to pushrod engines, overhead cam engines typically tolerate higher RPM operation, opening up additional power when designed well.
It was this additional power that Ford engineers were chasing. They took the FE block and modified it to accept the new heads they have developed, the overhead cams would be powered by a 6 ft (1.8 meter) long timing chain and a slew of other minor changes would be made to the engine to safely permit higher-RPM usage.
Tumblr media
The length of that timing chain would quickly become a problem for the engine, it necessitated that one cam be a mirror of the other, and under high-RPM usage the cam timing could vary by 7º or more due to the chain stretching.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Sadly, before the engine could even turn in a single lap, it was banned by NASCAR along with the Chrysler Hemi engine as part of a crack down on “special racing engines.”
The Cammer Goes Drag Racing
Rather than dump the Cammer project Ford continued to develop the engine in the hopes of changing the minds of those making decisions at NASCAR, in the meantime they sent the engine off into the world of drag racing – where it proved wildly successful.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Many of the big names in 1960s drag racing were putting the Cammer to good use, including Bill Lawton who won the AHRA and NHRA Winternationals in 1966. Other Cammer pilots included Mickey Thompson, Gerry Schwartz, Tommy Grove, Tom Hoover, Pete Robinson, Connie Kallita, and many others.
1967 would see Connie Kalitta’s Cammer-powered “Bounty Hunter” slingshot dragster win the Top Fuel events at the AHRA, NHRA, and NASCAR winter meets – becoming the only “triple crown” winner in the history of American drag racing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
These successes should be no great surprise, as many drag racing outfits were getting over 2,500 hp out of their supercharged Cammers.
The Cammer Mach 1 Shown Here – “The Sin City Shaker”
The car you see here was nicknamed “The Sin City Shaker” thanks to its combination of a Ford Cammer V8 engine and a shaker hood.
The shaker hood was offered as an option on the Mach 1, it comprises of a hole in the hood and a special air scoop mounted directly to the top of the engine. The air scoop rises through the hole in the hood when the hood is closed, and when the engine is running the scoop can be seen to be shaking – hence the name.
Power is provided by a rare, original Ford 427 cubic inch Cammer V8 producing 616 hp at 7,000 rpm and 515 lb ft torque at 3,800 rpm. Power is sent back through a 4-speed manual transmission to the rear axle.
As a Mach 1, the car has that distinctive livery on the outside, including side stripes, a matte black hood with hood pins, a front lip spoiler, and a rear trunk lid spoiler. Inside you’ll find a black-on-black interior and a Hurst cue ball shifter.

✞ The Summer of Ravenswood Manor: A Haunting Tale ✞
Honey Dreary moves the desolate town of Angels' Creek in the Midwest, desperately trying to escape her troubled past. Unexpectedly she becomes entranced by the mysterious and brooding owner of a rundown mansion on the edge of town, Ravenswood Manor. The two begin a tumultous romance as she begins to uncover the dark secrets of his past.
Character Moodboards here
Chapter 1: Milk, Honey, Harmony
Tumblr media
Considering Jesus died almost two thousand years ago in sanction for our sins, seems he had failed. At least in Honey Dreary's eyes.
The trees in this dismal town seemed to howl and shriek, their brittle bare branches reaching out like bony fingers, waiting to pick and pluck every morsel of life from its residents. Often things would vanish. Cars were parked and never to be seen again. Small children would wander off from their parents, never to return.
Honey, in her cherry red 1967 Ford Mustang raced down the road, blazing a fiery red trail to a new beginning. With a Marlboro gold hanging from her opulent cherry lips, and the wind in her hair, it was enough to distract her from a possible grave mistake. No, she wouldn't let herself admit she'd made an impulsive decision, upping and leaving her old apartment in the city in the middle of the night. Not telling anyone where she was going or for how long and with no plans of a job. As her mother always said ‘every cloud has a silver lining’. She'd found an ad for an old chapel converted into apartments, using what little savings she had on the small deposit and gathering the rest for her first months rent. She decided the rest would work it’s self out. The apartment had a pretty little porch out front for her to sit out and read, smoke or play her vintage Billie Holiday vinyl. If nothing else, that would be this cloud’s silver lining. She was looking forward to an escape from her previous city life, one where she could do as she pleased without the torments of being a city girl in her 20s, or the ever-looming disapproval of her family.
Angels' Creek was a sleepy rundown Midwestern town. A place that was no one’s destination and not even somewhere you’d be passing through. It was surrounded by open fields of forest and farmland. Honey had chosen it for its lazy hazy atmosphere, now closing in on her late twenties , she decided a more tame lifestyle was due. There definitely wasn’t much in the way of modern amenities or entertainment. From what she could make out, the town had one singular main road that ran from one end of town, Angels’ Entrance, to the other, Ravenswood End. She lived at the far end, like a guilty child banished to a dark corner. The street was littered with tattered shops: Daisy's Diner, The Cloudy Laundrette, Pembrooke Supermarket, and somewhere called Ray's. All are in need of a good refurbishment, their lit up signs flickering and dying, as was the life from this town. There was a heavy sense of faded glory, with the town's best days behind it, the barren remnants sit gathering dust in the middle of a vast plain of deathly trees.
Honey's tyres screeched as she pulled up to her new apartment. Flicking what was left of her cigarette onto the pavement, she takes off her sunglasses and adjusts her windswept blonde hair in the rear-view mirror, as she leans over to the passenger seat to gather her bags before grounding her wedged heel onto the pavement. Her perpetual hazy cloud of cigarette smoke, amaretto perfume, and bad decisions, pervaded the air around her.
A sweaty outstretched palm startled her, 'Miss Dreary' a voice spoke before she'd hardly put her other foot down on the pavement. She shifted her gaze up drinking in the sight, brown trousers, starched shirt, round bald head with friendly overly enthusiastic blue eyes. ‘Mr Bluebell. I’m your new landlord.’ Honey grasped his hand, using it to hoist herself up from the drivers seat bringing her to eye level with her new landlord. ‘My gosh! What a beautiful car you have. Must be a 1974.’
‘It’s actually a '67.’
‘Yes. Of course. You’re correct. Anyway. Would you like me to show you inside? Your particular apartment is named ‘Garden of Eden’ …controversial these days. ’ Mr Bluebell turns around with Honey on his tail… she guesses he’ll offer to help with her bags after the tour. ‘I bought this property years ago now. It was a derelict church before I had the idea to convert it into quaint little apartments.' It was an insult to call it an 'apartment' really, she thought.
Mr Bluebell continues... 'The previous owners weren’t too fond of the idea, but they came around once they saw how much I was offering! You have the ground floor, it’s cosy with excellent bones, well lit in the mornings with east-facing windows.’ They pass the sweet white porch before entering the small living room with a kitchenette attached. ‘This is your living space, as you can see it comes with a sofa, and a TV cabinet.’ The ‘sofa’ he was referring to was more of an armchair, and the ‘TV cabinet’ was a single television plonked on the floor in front of said ‘sofa.’
He leads her down a narrow hallway. ‘Down here is your bedroom. And to the left is your bathroom.’ They come to a halt in front of a large window overlooking the street opposite. Mr Bluebell quickly snatches a glance out before snapping his head back into place. ‘I’ll leave you now to settle down and get comfortable,’ he huffs. The middle-aged man makes his way back to the front door, still rambling on. He comes to an abrupt stop. He leans uncomfortably close to Honey’s uninterested face. ‘I will say, be wear. Of the Manor on the hill. Strange things happen in Angles’ Creek. Just… be careful.’ His serious demise reverts back to his usual friendly cheerfulness. ‘Toodaloo! You can always find me at Ray’s,’ with no more than a wiggle of his chubby fingers he nearly vanished from Honey’s porch.
She wasn't even sure exactly which manor he was talking about. All she could see were brittle twigs for miles in the bleak distance. But. There was a murky grey space, what looked to be an opening in the whispering trees. If she squinted hard enough, yes, there was a tattered house in the distance. One that combined a lavish art deco style with 1950s Americana brilliance. There were holes in the brickwork that looked to be poorly boarded over with scraps of rotting wood. The old hanging porch lights, once a crystal shiny glass, now swung smashed from its socket. A gate of exquisite design once stood guarding the house and its glory is now ripped off its hinges lazily swinging and creaking with the wind's force.
Retrieving her suitcase and what little belongings she brought with her from her car, Honey begins to unpack. With interior design not being her strong suit, her judgement told her the framed Elvis photograph looked best on the already dusty glass shelf in the bathroom, ironically. Her American flag was pinned above her bed in all its failing glory. The small vintage trinkets she considered her prized possessions: a little bone China jewellery dish with hand-painted pink roses, a porcelain doll her grandmother gave her for her first birthday, and a wooden box of teeth she found in an antique shop. All neatly placed on her brown dressing table in front of the infamous east facing window. The cramped structure left no room for any kind of wardrobe, meaning her few items of clothing had to be hung off the end of the cream curtain pole, supporting the flimsy mesh lace curtains that provided a very minuscule amount of privacy. She supposed in a run down town like this, not enough goes on for her to need more modesty.
The crinkle of her cardboard cigarette carton simmered off the walls as she fished one out to light between her supple lips. That’s how quiet Angles’ Creek was. How drab, how dull, how dismal. Not even the sound of footsteps from passers by, nor a car engine. Only the howling wind. Honey wanted quiet, and that’s what she got. The urge to fill an unfamiliar void of anonymity had her unpacking her record player to put on ‘I Call My Baby Pussycat’ by The Funkadelic. Leaning back on her new bed, she’d stripped herself of her plaid miniskirt and wedged heels, left in only her soft white thong that read ‘rockstars only’ across the front and a white lace tank top. She decided to unwind with the one of the only ways she knew how. Slipping her fingers into the front of her knickers, thinking thoughts of James Dean in ‘Rebel Without a Cause’, and Marlon Brando sweaty in a wifebeater. Her brain and body was nothing but oozing chocolate pudding and sticky melted marshmallow- a tapping on her window drew her out of her dreamland and anchored her down into reality. She padded over to see where the sound was coming from, expecting it to be that annoying old man again, just to find it was nothing but a tree branch blowing in the wind. So dead and bony, making a sound akin to dry fingers tapping and scraping at glass. No one was there. Not a soul in sight.
The old manor atop the hill in the distance caught her attention once again. A yellowish light bulb now glowed through one of the second-floor windows, right at the top of the house, beneath the deteriorating roof. It was almost as if a deathly shadowy figure created a colossal silhouette. If she squinted, the figure had a pale face. One of a handsome gentlemen, younger than she would expect of a manor so old. Stood there in nothing but a lacy vest top, nipples hard and protruding, and her knickers. An ominous figure of broad stature remains staring back at her.

ORANGE 67' FORD MUSTANG
When creating digital art of a classic car like the 1967 Ford Mustang parked by the beach, there are many details to consider to bring the scene to life. To start, you'll want to envision the setting: the beach, with its sandy shoreline, the sound of waves crashing, and the salty ocean breeze. Then, visualize the Mustang itself, with its sleek lines, iconic headlights, and vibrant orange color.
As you begin the digital art, focus on capturing the essence of the beach in the background. You might incorporate the soft, warm hues of the sunset, casting a golden glow over the sand and water. Adding in small details like seagulls in the distance or palm trees swaying in the breeze can really enhance the overall atmosphere.
When it comes to the Mustang, pay attention to the reflections on its glossy surface, the way the sunlight dances across the curves of the car. Consider the finer details, such as the chrome accents, the way the paint shimmers in the light, and the vintage feel of the design.
As you work on the digital art, think about the emotions you want to convey. The Mustang parked by the beach evokes a sense of nostalgia, freedom, and a carefree spirit. Perhaps you could add a surfboard leaning against the car, or a pair of sunglasses resting on the dashboard, to further enhance the feeling of a leisurely beach day.
In terms of technique, utilizing digital tools allows for a great deal of precision and control. You can experiment with different brush textures and blending modes to create a sense of depth and texture in the sand, the water, and the car itself. Pay attention to light and shadow, as these elements will bring dimension and realism to the artwork.
Ultimately, the goal is to transport the viewer to this idyllic scene, where they can almost feel the warmth of the sun, hear the waves, and imagine themselves taking a leisurely drive along the coastline in this iconic car. Digital art offers endless possibilities for creating rich, immersive experiences, and the digital art of a 1967 Ford Mustang by the beach is a wonderful opportunity to showcase the beauty of both the vintage car and the serene coastal setting.
Tumblr media
The Ford Mustang holds a special place in the hearts of car enthusiasts and American culture. It has a rich history and has undergone numerous changes to become the iconic vehicle it is today.
The Ford Mustang was first introduced on April 17, 1964, at the New York World's Fair. It was an instant hit and is credited with creating the "pony car" class of American automobiles—compact, affordable, and highly styled cars with a sporty image. The first generation Mustangs, also known as the "1964 1/2" models, featured a range of engine options and a variety of body styles, including a convertible, hardtop, and fastback.
Over the years, the Mustang has gone through multiple design changes and seen various iterations. In 1969, the Mustang underwent a significant redesign, with a longer body, wider grille, and a more aggressive look. Later generations saw changes in powertrains and technological advancements, with the introduction of fuel injection, turbocharging, and independent rear suspension.
One of the most revered periods in Mustang history is the era of the Shelby Mustangs, particularly the Shelby GT350 and GT500. These high-performance variants, developed in collaboration with Carroll Shelby, added a new level of performance and styling to the Mustang lineup.
In recent years, the Mustang has continued to evolve, embracing modern technology and design while staying true to its heritage. The current generation Mustang, introduced in 2015, features a sleek, aerodynamic design, powerful engine options, and advanced driver-assist technologies. Notably, Ford has also introduced the Mustang Mach-E, an all-electric SUV inspired by the Mustang's heritage.
Throughout its history, the Mustang has remained a symbol of American automotive innovation and performance. Its enduring popularity and influence in popular culture are a testament to its enduring legacy.
As the Mustang continues to evolve, it remains an iconic part of American automotive history and a symbol of the spirit of the open road. With its legendary past and promising future, the Ford Mustang continues to capture the hearts and imaginations of car enthusiasts around the world.

Wilbur drives a dark brown 1965 Ford mustang convertible with a black leather interior.
==============================================================
The nightly flow of people poured in and out of the dinner like water. Along with the sounds of the wheels of skates and the chatter of customers. Even the once-in-a-while roar of a car engine from the drag strips a couple of roads down from the diner. Currently (Y/N) was standing in front of the counter staring out the large windows right now she was on one of the small breaks she gets on Friday nights. Suddenly the roar of an engine spooked the poor girl. Three cars from the '60s pulled into the dinner parking lot. "(Y/N)!" her boss called from the back. "YEAH?" (Y/N) called still staring at the group of boys stepping out of the cars. "That's the group from the drag strip. Could you take their table?" Your boss, Rose asked as he rolled up to the counter from the back. Yeah, sure," (Y/N) muttered as the group of five boys came in and took a large booth in the corner. Out of the five of them, the tallest was probably the oldest, a brunette with a bright white strip running through his chestnut hair. The second one had a mess of dirty blonde hair and was wearing a completely white mask. The third was a shorter man that had a mop of black hair hidden under his beanie. The next was two teenagers, probably around sixteen one with blonde hair and brilliant blue eyes, and another with a mop of dark brown hair and round brown eyes. "Welcome to Mel's Drive-in! My name is (Y/N), what can I get for ya?" (Y/N) says her boredom finally gone. (If you get it you get it.) “One monster milkshake, three chocolate milkshakes, one strawberry milkshake, and a vanilla milkshake,” the brunette says counting off his fingers until he gets to six. As (Y/N) skates away from the table she hears a very loud voice come from the table. "Wilbur! Give me the keys!" the voice whines. She turns to see the blonde staring at the brunette with white in his hair whose name was Wilbur. "Tommy, I am not going to let you drive my car," he answers the blonde slightly annoyed. "Why? I am seventeen and have a license," Tommy keeps whining at what (Y/N) guesses is his older brother. "Because, that car is my baby," Wilbur tells Tommy. (Y/N) continues to skate to the gap in the counter to give the order to the cooks in the kitchen. The shakes took no time to be made, but in that time you were waiting for the shakes to be made your table became the center of attention at the diner. Telling stories of races and fights on the track. Right now the guy with the mop of black hair (Who's name you found out is Quackity) was talking about how he got in a fight with a six-foot-something teenager at the Drag Strip while standing on the empty table next to his. No one tried to stop him because the crowd was enjoying it. "He was waving his arms around like a monkey!" He continued the story. "HEY, that's not true!" Tommy shouted at Quackity interrupting him. "Ranboo is not a monkey!" he told Quackity glaring at him. You skated over to the table with a tray full of milkshakes in hand. Everyone shuts their mouths except Quackity who kept telling his twisted version of the story. "Six milkshakes for a table of five?'" you ask the table that was staring at you.                           ...And that was how your night ended...                                    [THE NEXT DAY] You had an opening shift the next morning which was 7:00 am-10:30 am. You were standing behind the counter leaning on it when a red motorcycle pulled up in front of the diner. The driver stepped off the bike and removed the helmet from their head releasing messy blonde hair. He started walking toward the door opening it causing the bell to ring, the group of seniors playing bingo in the corner turned their eyes to the door and then back to their game. He walked up to the counter right in front of you. "Nice to see you again (Y/N)!" he said leaning his arms on the counter. You don't respond right away just staring at him. "(Y/N)? You there?" his face morphing into a face of worry. "Yeah! Sorry yeah, everything's fine," you finally answered eyes making contact. "OK! My brother was wondering if you want to go to the races tonight with him?" Tommy asked fiddling with his fingers. "Wilbur? Yeah, sure, I would go with him!" your interest peeked at the mention of his older brother. "Also I didn't know you biked," you told him narrowing your eyes at him." "Yeah, I do," he dropped his head cheeks flushing a rosy color. After Tommy left the diner one of the seniors turned to you. "So (Y/N) you got a date," her dulling blue eyes and neon red hair shone in the vivid light of the diner. "Yeah, I guess I do..."

From their beginnings as affordable performance cars to their transformation into high-end collectables today, there’s hardly a facet of these iconic automobiles that haven’t been explored. What started out as simple cars with low production and little aftermarket support soon turned into a fully-fledged culture of modified street machines with an atmosphere all its own. Today, many of these modern classics are valued at prices that reflect how rare and special they are. Here are some of the most sought-after muscle car collectables today:
Dodge Charger Daytona
The Dodge Charger was one of the first-ever muscle cars to be built, produced from the mid-1950s to the 1970s. The very top-line model was the Daytona, equipped with a 4.05-litre V8 Magnum engine that could generate 345 horsepower. Although the Charger Daytona was only released for two consecutive years (1968 and 1969), it was available in two- or four-door coupe or convertible forms.
The rarity of this classic muscle car, with only 1,046 Chargers manufactured that year, has made it a highly sought-after collector’s item today. Along with its exclusivity, the Charger Daytona also made history as the first muscle car to hold a proper performance title. The Daytona could reach 60 mph in 7 seconds and 171 mph at its peak speed.
Chevrolet Corvette Stingray
The iconic Chevrolet Corvette was unveiled in 1953 as the American answer to European sports cars such as Ferrari and Porsche. With its fibreglass body, detachable roof, and lightweight aluminium chassis, the Corvette was the first affordable US sports car of its kind and a popular choice among performance car fans.
The Stingray, which was produced from 1964 to 1967, was the mid-engine version of the classic model and is still highly sought after by muscle car collectors. Equipped with a 327-horsepower, 4-barrel V8 engine connected to a 3-speed automatic transmission, the Stingray could go from 0 to 60 mph in just 6 seconds and reach a top speed of 145 mph. With only 27,901 Stingrays ever built, the model’s rarity has only added to its desirability.
Ford Mustang Mach 1
In 1969, the Ford Mustang Mach 1 made its grand debut and quickly became the best-selling sports car in the nation. This ‘muscle car’ of the South quickly made its mark outside the traditional Southern car culture and was modified in several ways. Six model variations were available throughout its production run, with the Mustang Mach 1 being the most sought-after option.
The Mach 1 was based on the fastback Mustang coupe and featured a redesigned exterior to show off its aggressive look. Powering the vehicle was a 4-barrel V8 engine with 351 horsepower and a 3-speed automatic transmission. Despite the fact that only 40,970 of these Mach 1 models were produced, they are now among the most sought-after muscle car collectables.
Shelby GT500KR
The Shelby GT500KR, released in 1967, was Shelby’s most powerful offering, available in limited numbers and exclusively in black with a white hood stripe. Based on the Shelby GT500 sports car, the GT500KR boasted a 5.8-litre engine and was connected to a 4-speed automatic transmission, together producing an impressive 527 horsepower. In addition, the Shelby GT500KR was capable of reaching a top speed of 202 mph, making it one of the rarest and fastest muscle cars of all time. Less than 2,500 of these vehicles were ever produced, making them a real collector’s item.
Pontiac Firebird Trans Am
The Pontiac Trans Am was one of the earliest pony cars to make a lasting impression on the racing scene. It featured a 4.5-litre V8 engine and 3-speed automatic transmission and delighted drivers with its performance variants until 1994, when it was discontinued. During the 1988 model year, only 3,531 Trans Ams were produced, making them one of the rarest muscle cars to collect. Even after the car was discontinued, it continued to be a popular model among enthusiasts and collectors, making it a sought-after classic to this day.
Chevrolet Camaro ZR-1
The Chevrolet Camaro was one of the first modern muscle cars in America to feature independent front suspension. The ZR-1 was an ultra-rare performance package available on the 1993 Camaros in two colours: black and blue. This limited-edition model featured a manual 6-speed transmission, alloy wheels, and a free-flowing exhaust. On top of that, the ZR-1 was equipped with a powerful 6-cylinder engine that could generate up to 355 horsepower—an impressive increase compared to the regular Camaro SS, which was powered by a V8.
Pontiac GTO
The Pontiac GTO was the epitome of the muscle car era in the 1980s, and its legacy continues to this day. It was built from 1968 through 2003, and its engine was a 6.0-litre V8 mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission. Production of the GTO was limited, with only 9,721 produced in 2006, making it one of the rarest muscle cars to collect. Such was its popularity that the Pontiac GTO is still one of the most sought-after models for car enthusiasts and collectors. With its power and reliability, the GTO continues to be one of the top muscle car models available today.
Chevrolet Camaro SS
The Chevrolet Camaro made its debut in 1966, paving the way for a new era of affordable American muscle cars. Its revolutionary independent front suspension made it one of the first post-war American cars to feature this innovative technology. The Camaro SS model, produced between 1967 and 1978, was one of the most desirable and powerful cars of its time. Boasting a 6.2-litre V8 engine that produced 580 horsepower, the Camaro SS was easy to maintain and drive, making it an extremely sought-after model. The Camaro SS was the perfect blend of power, convenience, and aesthetics.
Speaking of aesthetics, the quality of the car finishing or polishing products you choose can make or break the look of your car, especially if you own a muscle car. With the right car polishing products, you can bring out its true beauty and make it stand out from the crowd. Plus, well-maintained cars last longer, so investing in quality car products is an investment in your car’s future.

Adan Lupercio's Mustang Road Trip
With his deep passion for vintage cars, Adan Lupercio decided it was time to take his 1967 Ford Mustang on an iconic American road trip along the Pacific Coast Highway. Planning the route from Santa Monica up to San Francisco filled Adan Lupercio with excitement and nostalgia.
Early on a sunny California morning, Adan Lupercio topped off the fluids, packed his bags, and hit the road in his Mustang convertible. Driving with the top down, wind in his hair, and the ocean in view was a dream come true.
Adan Lupercio took his time meandering up the coast, stopping to take photos at beaches, parks, and quirky roadside attractions. Seeing the same sights that 1940s motorists would have gazed upon gave the trip an old-school vibe.
The coastal views never got old, each bend revealing new ocean vistas. However, the highlight was driving across the iconic Golden Gate Bridge into San Francisco. Adan felt immense satisfaction cruising his vintage Mustang into the city.
After grabbing dinner at a retro diner, Adan found a scenic lookout point to watch the sunset over the Pacific. As the sky turned pink and purple, he reflected on the simple joy of experiencing the open road and beautiful landscapes.
Though the trip ended too soon,Adan Lupercio knew he would cherish the memories forever. The solo Mustang road trip had been rejuvenating and liberating. He looked forward to planning more adventurous journeys in his beloved classic car.
