1970 Olds 442
As a member of the muscle car category, the Oldsmobile 442 proved its worth the hard way: Originally, the 442 was an optional package for the F-85 and Cutlass models, beginning in 1964. After the Pontiac division of General Motors experienced an unexpected success with the release of the The Tempest GTO the same year, Oldsmobile quickly compiled the package to keep buyers interested. The 442 did not become an actual car model independent of others until 1968.
Dodge Challenger Then and Now
As a well-respected car that has lasted through generations, the Dodge Challenger has endured its fair share of changes over the years. So how is it different now? Let’s take a look.
The first model, the 1970 Dodge Challenger, came with a whopping eight body styles, including convertible and hardtop versions, both with two doors. A variety of engine options was available for those who craved a little extra speed with this muscle car. Additionally, a dual exhaust could be had on some models. Four different hood styles were offered, though the standard 
style was almost flat, except for the small peak that ran down the center of the hood. For a flashier model, metallic paint colors were available alongside their flat color options. The 1970 Dodge Challenger (standard) featured a 225 cubic inch engine with a three-speed manual transmission.

American Muscle: The Oldsmobile 442
Many fans of professional basketball, especially those who live in the Philadelphia area, look back fondly on the 1982-1983 season. This was the year that the team that was led by the legendary “Dr. J” Julius Irving added an integral piece in the form of dominating center Moses Malone.
Malone went down in basketball history with a simple statement: “Four-Four-Four.” He was predicting that the Sixers would win the NBA Championship with three consecutive four-game playoff series sweeps. He was close to prophetic; the Sixers did win the title, but it took them five games to win the middle series.
Pontiac GTO: Some History
When you talk about the great American muscle cars of the 1960s and beyond one of the first vehicles that is going to enter the conversation is the Pontiac GTO.
A lot of people have heard of John DeLorean as the founder of the DeLorean Motor Company, the ill-fated luxury car manufacturer of the 1970s. However, DeLorean was long thought of as an automotive design genius before starting his own company.
He was the chief engineer of the Pontiac division of General Motors in the early 1960s and he was instrumental in the design of the GTO along with chassis expert Bill Collins and engine man Russell Gee.
Top Five Reasons to Buy a Classic Car
Turn Heads
It is quite a kick to drive down the street and see everyone getting whiplash as they notice you passing by in your classic car or truck. You see adults pointing your vehicle out to children and you come out of stores and restaurants to find people gathering around your vehicle with admiration.
Turn The Wrench
You might buy a classic car that is already in 
perfect condition and fully restored, but even if you do you may want to make modifications and perform maintenance tasks. On the other hand, you may be someone who likes to dig in deeper than that and do the restoration for yourself. Taking on this hobby can be a lot of fun and it can lead to the next reason to buy a classic car.
Operation Mustang
Clearly there are countless different sought after classic American cars and they all carry a unique brand of history. But if you were to conduct a poll and ask classic car aficionados about their top 10 of all time, the Ford Mustang would probably be on everybody’s list.
These cars took America by storm after being introduced at the 1964 World’s Fair in New York and they have been a part of the American landscape ever since. In fact, the Mustang is still going strong and the latest models are absolute head turners.
Visit the Peterson
If you are a true classic car fan you want to do more than just talk about old cars– you want to take them on the road and drive them. When you are a collector car enthusiast getting behind the wheel of one of your classics and going on a road trip is a lot of fun, especially when your destination involves indulging your passion in vintage automobiles and trucks.
With the above in mind, if you want to have the automotive experience of a lifetime you should consider making the trek to Los Angeles to visit the Peterson Automotive Museum.
The Yenko Camaro
The Camaro has long been associated with speed, power, and respect on the road, however, there was a time when it simply could not compete with the Ford Mustang and Plymouth Barracuda. At the time that the Camaro was first produced, General Motors had a limit which prevented using an engine larger than a 400 cubic inch V8, much unlike its competition, which had no such restriction.Things changed under Don Yenko, who understood that there was a market for more powerful cars, and so began the story of the Yenko Camero, a modified version of the famous car line, produced under Yenko Chevrolet.
