Few cars embody American muscle like the Chevrolet Camaro. Whether it’s the raw aggression of the first generation (1967–1969) or the sleek, sculpted power of the second generation (1970–1981), every Camaro tells a story of performance and passion.

But every story faces a defining choice: Do you restore it or restomod it?

Both paths have their devotees. One is about historical accuracy; the other is about evolution. Either way, the journey starts with a dream — and usually, a pile of parts.

If you're an auto-enthusiast, chances are you’ve heard of the legendary name Don Yenko — and his famous high-performance builds like the Yenko Camaro and the Yenko Stinger Corvair. What you may not know as well is how his legacy continues today through his daughter, Lynn Yenko, who carries forward the spirit, style, and horsepower of the Yenko name.

Here’s a deep dive into Lynn’s story — her roots, her role, her vision for the next generation of muscle-and-performance, and why every gearhead should keep an eye on what she’s doing.

"This would be the equivalent of a Hellcat today — a big comfortable car that goes when you put your foot in it... There's just so much torque, it pulls so hard!" Jay Leno considers his 1964 Dodge Polara to be "quite the performance car from the dawn of the muscle car age," and we certainly agree. These days, it may not be as well-known as the Charger, Challenger, and other muscle cars of the late '60s, but the 426ci Wedge powered Polara was one of the cars that started it all. In a video on Jay Leno's Garage, he walks us through what made this car truly special.

When Pennsylvania car enthusiast Mick Wood first laid eyes on a gutted 1968 Chevrolet Camaro, most would’ve seen an impossible project. No glass, no interior, no drivetrain—just a bare shell with potential. But with the help of his son, and a full lineup of Classic Industries restoration parts, Mick transformed that forgotten relic into a head-turning muscle car he proudly calls “Sinister ’68.”

This two-year father-and-son build blends timeless Camaro style with modern performance and comfort—an incredible showcase of craftsmanship, creativity, and passion for the Chevy legacy.

WestWorld of Scottsdale became the epicenter of collector-car excitement from October 15–18, 2025, as Barrett-Jackson hosted its Fall 2025 Scottsdale Auction. The event delivered four days of high-energy bidding, celebrity sightings, and a cross-section of classic and modern performance icons—each crossing the block at no reserve, in pure Barrett-Jackson fashion. 

If you had a blank check to build a classic truck into the ultimate off-road machine, what would you create? For Andrew Knudsen, the answer was this Ford F100. By his own admission, there's not much left unmodified, but the timeless style and character of the classic F-Series is still clearly visible. Beneath that, it has a custom tube chassis, long-travel suspension, 40-inch tires, an 830-horsepower V8, and a surprisingly luxurious (yet highly functional) interior.

Few cars command respect like the 1965–1973 Ford Mustang. Whether it’s a ’65 fastback 289, a Boss 302, a rare and racy Shelby Mustang, or a Mach 1 big block, these icons of American muscle never fail to turn heads.

But once you’ve tracked down your dream project—maybe a dusty barn find or a half-finished Craigslist special—you’re faced with one big decision:

Do you restore it to factory specs, or build a modernized restomod beast?

All I can say is… thank you, good Lord! This was a lifetime moment I’ll never forget.

Classic trucks have curves, and that's one of the many reasons we love them. One of the main sources of this curvy appearance is their use of Stepside bed designs. Stepside trucks feature a narrow rectangular bed flanked by external fenders over the rear wheels, plus convenient step platforms behind the cab. Today, we think of this as an optional feature that fell out of favor, but in reality, the Stepside design was simply the default way trucks were made until the mid-1950s. A recent video from Rare Cars summarized the history of Stepside (a.k.a. Flareside or Utiline) truck beds and why they were eventually replaced by the Fleetside beds all modern trucks have today.

YouTube videos claim the Fast N’ Loud star is behind bars. The truth? A years-old civil case, now settled, is being recycled as clickbait.
