"This was probably the most aspirational car you could get in America," remarked Jay Leno while driving a restored 1967 Corvette with the legendary Tri-Power 427ci V8 under its hood. "If you had a plumbing business and you were fairly successful, Ferraris were still out of your reach, but the Corvette was the car that nobody begrudged you." Leno got together with Donald Osborne of the Audrain Museum Network to reminisce about how the big block C2 Corvette changed the American automotive landscape.

There’s something special about a first-generation Ford Mustang. From the clean early lines of the ’64½ cars to the aggressive stance of the ’71–’73 models, these cars defined the pony car era and still turn heads today.

But here’s the truth every seasoned builder knows:
It’s not just the big-ticket items that make a Mustang stand out - it’s the details.

When it comes to building, restoring, or upgrading an American pony or muscle car, few components influence both performance and personality quite like the carburetor. The Holley Street Warrior 600 CFM 4160 Carburetor - available at Classic Industries - delivers the perfect blend of reliability, drivability, and classic performance that enthusiasts have trusted for generations.

Whether you're dialing in a small-block Chevy, tuning a Ford 302, or breathing new life into a Mopar V8, this carburetor is designed to help your engine perform at its best - on the street where it belongs.

Bucks Transmission Shop - what a great name for an automotive garage. Located in Fort Worth, TX, Kris Luce’s family owned the business. How great would it be to grow up in such a nurturing environment – warm motor oil, the sweet smell of auto transmission fluid, the exotic essence of high-Octane fuel, the silkiness of gear oil, grease, grime, exhaust fumes, revving engines, perhaps a bit of explosions here and there, grunts, groans, thrown tools, cussing, giving the trusty shop dog some attention when you just can’t figure out what to try next, and that hydraulic/electric sound of the lift going up and down? How romantic and idealistic can you get?

The Tri Five Chevy is a platform that can be restored and resto-modded in a variety of different ways. Many are built for cruising with the original inline-six or a small-block V8. But for hot-rodders who want to crank up the performance into muscle car territory, that's always an option. The owner of this '55 Bel Air kept its appearance relatively mild, so you might think it's another cruiser at first glance. In reality, there's a built LS motor with a Whipple supercharger lurking beneath its hood.

The word on the street is that Chevrolet will be unveiling the seventh Generation Camaro the latter part of 2027 as a 2028 Camaro! A prominent GM component supplier has confirmed (or leaked) this information to several automotive media entities via Automotive News. Both the Camaro and a new Buick are slated to be built alongside the next four-door Cadillac at GM’s Lansing, Michigan Grand River assembly plant. The Grand River assembly line is where the outgoing rear-wheel drive Alpha 2 platform Caddy CT4 and current CT5 are manufactured.

In the world of Mopar muscle, rarity isn’t just about numbers - it’s about the stories buried in sheet metal, the quirks of factory production, and the passion it takes to bring those stories back to life. This 1972 Dodge Demon 340 is one of those stories - a true enthusiast’s car with an uncommon pedigree and a restoration journey driven by equal parts determination and respect for originality.

The car was acquired in August of 2017 from a family friend in northern Idaho - specifically Sand Point, ID. At the time, it was an honest, largely untouched survivor that had yet to undergo restoration. Aside from a few period modifications - an intake and carburetor swap, a repaint, and an altered roof - the car retained much of its original character. But what set it apart wasn’t immediately obvious to the casual observer.
