800-Horsepower Fox Body Turbo Mustang Is One Bad Pony
Fox Body Mustangs seem to be particularly controversial among enthusiasts. While many find them to be a bright spot in a largely dull car scene in the 1980s, others think they’re ugly and long overstayed their time in the Ford lineup. We don’t expect those in the latter camp will be much impressed by this turbocharged 1984 ‘Stang even though it pushes a mighty 800-horsepower and that’s okay because the world of automotive enthusiasm is big enough for all kinds of tastes.

Procharged Chevelle SS Pushes 600-HP
One of the great things about newer restomods is that they make no bones about what they are to the general public. Some in the past have tried to conceal the car’s performance with stock-looking designs and keeping the original lighting. However, for the most part, the car’s we’ve seen from channels like Autotopia LA in the past few years are all proud of their mixture of modern and classic and wear it like a badge on their exteriors. This particular vehicle is a great example of what makes these incredible restomods so appealing to the newest generation of car enthusiasts.

Top Gear’s American Muscle Cars Episode Was Revealing
Way back when Top Gear was still worth watching, Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond embarked on a wonderful journey across the western United States. You might remember the episode where the boys drove different American muscle cars (actually, only one was truly a muscle car, but don’t expect the Brits to understand that). There’s plenty of cringe in the episode, showing how Europeans tend to lean toward elitism, even though most of them are average by definition.

December Marks The Anniversary Of The End Of The Plymouth Superbird
The 1970 Plymouth Superbird is possibly one of the most famous vehicles to ever hit the various tracks of the NASCAR circuit for their incredible performance, eye-catching style, and dominating presence on the racetrack. While these cars were not best sellers on the sales floor, they quickly became an icon of American speed and determination. Everyone from Ford to Chevy could do little more than stare in amazement as these ridiculous cars beat their best drivers into a pulp and take home the first-place prize. Unlike the ’69 Daytona, the Superbird’s sister car previously regulated to at least 500 units, 1,920 Superbirds had to be produced as NASCAR had changed the homologation rules to prevent manufacturers from building cars specifically for racing.

Garage Built 427 Stroker 1965 Ford Mustang Will Steal Your Heart
In 1965 Ford had a dream, a dream of making automotive history and cultivating a fan base unlike any other in the industry. The brand already had a great muscle car in the Mustang so it was time to take things up a notch. Long story short, they went out and did exactly what they set out to do. This particular car guy picked up exactly what Ford was laying down and eventually made his very own unique custom classic capable of beating any new model on the road in a race.
