How The 428 Cobra Jet Engine Rescued The Mustang's Performance Image

The redesigned ’67 Mustang was drop-dead gorgeous: racier, more refined and oozing European grand touring flair — particularly the fastback. Its engine bay was widened to accommodate Ford’s FE engines and, for ’67, the 4V 390 got the nod as the top offering. This should’ve made the Mustang a rolling embodiment of Ford's “Total Performance” image – the image Dearborn cultivated with full-page ads and race wins on the world’s biggest stages. But...

Super Stock Style For A Street-Driven ’64 Dodge 330

Mark Bonnett’s 1964 Dodge 330 is a performer that defies most of the categories and genres used today, and that’s exactly what drew us to the period-inspired Mopar. It’s certainly not a pro-touring car and the term resto-mod suggests at least some modern updates such as disc brakes or an overdrive transmission. It’s got none of that.… The post Super Stock Style For A Street-Driven ’64 Dodge 330 appeared first on The Online Automotive Marketplace.

The 1931 Buick Series 60 Was The First Of The Buick Eights

Studebaker had one. So did Nash, Auburn, De Soto, and Dodge. In fact, more than 20 automakers were offering an eight-cylinder in a mid-priced car by 1930. Buick wasn't among them, but it was about to catch up in a big way. For 1931, Buick raised the curtain on a lineup featuring no fewer than three different straight-eight engines, including the 220.7-cu.in. for the new entry-level Series 50, the 272.6-cu.in. for the Series 60 seen here, and the...

This Pair Of 1916 Oldsmobile Model 44s from The John McTaggart Collection Was Remanufactured From Parts

Oldsmobile made headlines for the debut of its OHV “Rocket” V-8 in 1949, but it wasn’t the automaker’s first V-8. Lesser known is that Oldsmobile first introduced a V-8 all the way back in 1916, with its Model 44, a.k.a. the “Light Eight.” That L-head V-8 displaced 246-cu.in. and Oldsmobile rated it at 40 horsepower, an impressive figure for the time and double Ford’s Model T output as a frame of reference. Though the car proved somewhat popular...

Turning a 1958 Edsel Into a Bond-Themed Spy Car with Gizmos and Gadgets Galore

I grew up in Southern California in the 1960s, when car culture was a big influence on a boy. Slot cars and plastic models were the gateway drugs, so to speak, which was followed by go-karts and minibikes. I lived in a rural area on the family chicken ranch where there was plenty of room to rod around on hard-packed dirt. My dad, who built much of his own farm equipment, fabricated a go-kart for my older brother when he was 5. I inherited the...
