Way back in 1934 those Ford of Australia designers and engineers had the right idea - to create a coupe utility or unibody pickup truck that could haul farm stuff during the week and be driven in comfort and class with the spouse to church on Sunday. The practical vehicle came to be known down under as simply a ute. 

Rhodium is a very rare, bright silver metal known for its hardness, resistance to corrosion, and high reflectivity. As a result of its scarcity, it's also one of the most valuable precious metals, far exceeding the value of of gold or platinum. Given these characteristics, Rhodium seems like a very fitting name for this exquisite '68 Camaro crafted by East Bay Muscle Cars. It features lots of custom metalwork, one-of-a-kind 3D-printed components, an 800hp ProCharged LT4 V8, and an interior that looks like it could've come out of a brand new supercar.

Searching several years in states like Texas, California, and Arizona, Pedro Villa looked for a turnkey 1966 Chevy II Nova that he could purchase and customize to make his own. Years prior he had owned a '66 Chevy II station wagon that had planted the seed for a sporty coupe in his Bowtie loving brain. Low and behold, in 2018 Pedro went to a car show in Whittier, California that was just four miles from his home in Pico Rivera. There he spied the burgundy beauty of his Chevy II Nova loving dreams. 

An American pony car/muscle car builder can choose between the school of hard knocks and the school of fast corners. An old car builder/owner will be progressing or regressing through both schools simultaneously and at all times (as the case may be). Which would an auto enthusiast choose? The answer is simple, unless reaction times, straight lines, and Christmas tree lights are the preference to a seemingly endless stream of winding roads and tight apexes. 1967 Mustang notchback owner Kyle Barnes affectionately has named his Mustang '67 Patina. Watching the Petrolicious video will make it most obvious why this moniker makes so much sense for Mr. Barnes' pony car.

Few Mopars ignite as much passion - or start as many garage arguments - as the 1970–1974 Dodge Challenger. Born at the height of the muscle-car wars, the E-body Challenger blended Mopar attitude with a long-hood/short-deck Coke bottle profile and a factory engine lineup ranging from steady-Eddie 318s to the fire-breathing 426 Hemi V8. Today, these cars remain first-rate collectibles and prime candidates for either concours-level restorations or full blast restomods.

Both paths can lead to tire-shredding or show-stopping glory, but they take you down very different roads. Here’s a deep dive into the pros and cons of each, from cost and drivability to street cred and resale value.

Every November, the SEMA Show in Las Vegas serves as a mecca for all things automotive. Restoration shops and aftermarket parts manufacturers use the SEMA Show as an opportunity to unveil their latest projects, often in the form of a custom car parked in their booth. Suspension manufacturer Heidts teamed up with Steve Strope of Pure Vision Design to create this incredible 1970 Road Runner. The project was dubbed Haraka, which means "speed" in Swahili.

If you’re restoring or maintaining a classic Chevrolet, you know how rewarding — and sometimes challenging — the process can be. The hunt for authentic, high-quality restoration parts often takes time and effort. That’s why Classic Industries created the Digital Parts & Accessories Catalog — a modern, easy-to-use resource for 1958–1996 Chevy Impala, Bel Air, Biscayne, Caprice, and El Camino models.

Now, finding OEM-quality parts for your favorite full-size Chevy is easier than ever — all from the comfort of your screen.

Classic Mopar enthusiasts now have a powerful new resource at their fingertips. Classic Industries has released a comprehensive digital catalog for Mopar A-body, B-body, and E-body vehicles, covering model years 1960 through 1976. Whether you're restoring a vintage Dart, Charger, Barracuda, Challenger, Road Runner, or what have you from the vaunted Mopar A-, B-, or E-bodies, this updated digital catalog provides a more efficient and accessible way to source authentic parts and accessories for your project.

For many decades, the Chevy Nova SS has been seen as an affordable, blue-collar muscle car. It was less expensive than its sibling the Chevelle SS, and certainly more attainable for the everyman than GM's flagship Corvette. However, recent auction results indicate the value of a clean Nova SS is rising fast. At Mecum's 2025 Dallas Fort Worth auction, this numbers-matching 1970 Nova SS L78 with extremely low miles sold for a whopping $275,000, making it reportedly the most expensive original-style restored Nova of all time.

Keeping car culture alive by sharing the hobby with those you care about, or even dare we say love - makes sense to us. There's nothing like a twisty country road, filled with flora, fauna, the occasional wooden covered or sturdy steel bridge, and a small town vibe to enhance the drives, the memories, and in this case, the father/son bond.
