TOP CLASSIC AMERICAN MUSCLE CARS

Added on: 13th Dec 2016

 

1967 DODGE CORONET R/T 426 HEMI CONVERTIBLE

1967 Dodge Coronet RT 426

A true rare gem, this unique car is believed to be one of

only two 1967 Coronet R/T Hemi four-speed cars known

to have been built in light turquoise metallic.

 

 

1973 FORD RANCHERO 500

1973 Ford Ranchero 500

The large and heavier design of 1973 that replaced the

previous year’s sleek model has gone down in history as

one of the classiest American muscle cars of the seventies.

 

 

1970 CHEVROLET EL CAMINO SS 454

1970 Chevrolet El Camino SS 454

There was a time when every guy who wanted to be cool

and respected had to drive a 1970 Chevy El Camino SS 454.

It was probably the first time in engine history that a

truck was not viewed as just a truck and a muscle car was

much more than a muscle car. The 1970 Chevrolet El

Camino SS 454 changed the way people saw trucks up to

that point and basically pioneered the combo truck/muscle

car and set the standard for its competitors to follow

or depart from.

 

 

BOSS 302 MUSTANG

Boss 302 Mustang

Designed to compete with Chevy’s Z28 Camaro both on and

off the track, the Boss 302 revived Ford’s small-block

performance image after nearly a year-and-a-half lapse

since the 289 High Performance went away after 1967.

 

 

1969 MERCURY CYCLONE

1969 Mercury Cyclone

One of the prettiest cars from the late sixties, the 1969

Mercury Cyclone remains one of the most beautiful

muscle cars of all time to this day.

 

 

1959 FORD GALAXIE

1959 Ford Galaxie

This was one of Elvis’s favourite models, as well as

Fidel Castro’s. The United States may not have been

well liked in Cuba back in the sixties for political reasons,

but the 1959 Ford Galaxie was widely admired

in the Caribbean country.

 

 

1969 CHEVROLET CORVETTE ZL-1

1969 Chevrolet Corvette ZL-1

The all-aluminium ZL-1 engine block was only put into

three Corvettes. The car was first ordered by one of the

factory workers in Chevrolet’s St. Louis, Missouri plant

and after that only two more orders were placed.

That makes this model one of the rarest ever.

 

 

1970 PLYMOUTH HEMI SUPERBIRD

1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird

The short-lived Plymouth Superbird was a highly modified

version of the Road Runner with well-known graphics and

horn. The 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird, arguably the

most impressive car of the package, is still remembered

for its futuristic (for its time) design.

 

 

1978 GMC CABALLERO DIABLO TRUCK

1978 GMC Caballero Diablo Truck

This truck, which many people saw as the equivalent to

Chevy’s El Camino Royal Knight package, is one of the

finest trucks you will ever see. Maybe that was the reason

GMC picked the word caballero for it, which in Spanish

means “gentleman” even though its technical definition

would be “horseman” or “knight.” In other words, the

1978 GMC Caballero Diablo was all about dynamic

elegance and class.
