Not a replica — a factory-built continuation directly authorized by Bill Thomas Motors.
We at Exotic Car Trader are lucky to get our hands on some of America’s rarer automotive gems from time to time. Simply browsing our inventory can be like a sort of history lesson for those interested in cars. Today’s lesson is this 1964 BTM Cheetah Coupe – Clarence Dixon Tribute that’s currently up for sale The Villages, Florida. It’s an ultra-lightweight race car with official BTM-authorized continuation. A little background, the BTM Cheetah is the work of a Chevy performance tuner named Bill Thomas. Produced between 1963 to 1966, it was aimed at competing squarely with the AC Cobra, also known as the Shelby Cobra. Many Cheetahs were raced, and this car is a tribute built to honor the original Clarence Dixon race car. If you want to get your hands on something truly unique, hit us up ASAP.
This 1964 BTM Cheetah Coupe – Clarence Dixon Tribute looks like no other race car, with its squat stance, black paint job, and mere 1,700 pound weight. The car rides on a set of chunky race tires, and is underpinned by a full tube frame chassis with a 90-inch wheelbase. You’ll no doubt have noticed its extreme rearward positioning of the cab, almost over the rear wheels, granting it a sort of dragster stance. The wide body outlook with vented hood further accentuates this image. Yet, this race rocket comes with head and taillamps, which means you might be able to drive it on the road in some places. Lift up one of those stunning gullwing doors and you’ll be greeted by a very racy interior in this 1964 BTM Cheetah Coupe – Clarence Dixon Tribute. There are two low-back seats in black leather, a wood-rimmed steering wheel and a white gear shift knob. The gauges are all analog affairs and there’s precious little in terms of creature comforts on offer.
There’s a 427ci V8 in L88 spec, paired with a Muncie 4-speed gearbox with no driveline. A Corvette independent rear end with 4.11 gears and positraction runs the show. The engine also enjoys BTM 2.5-inch headers into 4-inch tubes for a characteristic V8 roar. It runs on 110 alcohol, so be aware of that. You’ve also got 4-wheel disc brakes, and coilovers for all corners.

One of Chevy’s main pillars of the Sixties and Seventies, the Chevelle dominated the midsize segment with ease. It was one of the Bowtie’s most successful models during its 1963 to 1977 production run, and came in many body forms. Of course, petrolheads flocked towards the SS or Super Sport variant which brought many cosmetic as well as performance upgrades to the car. Now, we’ve got a finely restored 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle SS for grabs in Visalia, California. Sporting a black exterior and a black interior, this machine rocks a fearsome 427ci V8 under the hood, a set of black Ridler alloy wheels, and more. Also included in the sale is a Vintage Air heating and air conditioning system that’s currently not installed.
Who wouldn’t want the initiator of the pony car class to grace their life? That’s what we’re offering, with this Springtime Yellow 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible that’s available in Haddon Heights, New Jersey. Ford’s Mustang wasn’t yet another model, after all, but a segment creator. If not for the Mustang, we wouldn’t have had others like the Chevy Camaro, Pontiac Firebird, etc. This particular car is a 1965 model which is the first year of proper first-gen Mustang production, and saw over 559,000 units made in that year. Coming to you with a fine 289ci V8 under the hood, the Pony Interior Trim Package and a 3-speed automatic transmission, it’s a perfect classic car for anyone, really.
Tired of today’s appliances on wheels? May we offer this Garnet Red 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu for your well-being and overall enrichment of quality of life? It’s a stalwart American classic from the famous Chevy Chevelle family, and comes with just 8,000 miles on the clock after some refreshment work. With its nice black interior and Pioneer head unit upgrade, it’s a lovely car to drive regularly but the real fun factor lies beneath the hood, ready for a flex of your right foot. Yes, there’s a good American V8 down there, displacing all of 454 cubic inches and endowed with some nice goodies to help it make more than the reportedly approximately 400 horsepower that factory examples came with. If you’re tempted, this car is up for grabs in Lubbock.
