There really is nothing quite like a pre-oil crisis muscle car. And it’s not just about the power, even the styling was arguably better in the late 60s and early 70s. Chrysler launched the first-generation Dodge Challenger in late 1969 (for the 1970 MY) to compete with Mercury Cougar and the Pontiac Firebird. It came in two body styles (2-door hardtop and convertible), with nine engine options, three transmission options and several trim levels. Some visual changes were made in 1971, and the convertible was discontinued in 1972. 1973 saw the straight 6 engine being dropped. A few more changes came in before production finally ended in April 1974 with around 188,600 units being built in total. Like most muscle cars, the Challenger was frequently tuned and upgraded to squeeze as much horsepower as possible. In recent years, many have been used as restomod projects, like this one which was reportedly completed in 2017.
Dodges, both new and old, were sold in quite bold colors, from lime greens to bright purples. This one has been given two-tone paintwork, with the top half of the car in purple and the bottom half in silver. HEMI is written in capital letters on the side of the hood scoop. It has also been given a front lip with “Challenger” written on it, and five-spoke alloy wheels. The black interior is a combination of the original and a 2014 SRT8, and has Vintage Air heat and A/C. The front seats appear to have 6-point harnesses and the gauges have carbon fiber dials. Despite the combination of old and new interior components, they have been tastefully selected and work in harmony so that the SRT8 seats, the aftermarket three-spoke steering wheel and the classic chrome window switches all look like they belong together in the same car.
The mechanical upgrades on this car are quite extensive. The 5.7L Hemi V8 is from a 2009 Challenger R/T and the Ram 5-speed automatic is a 545 RFE transmission. It has 8 ¾” Posi 3.91 gears, a 4-link rear and Magnum Force coil overs. Stopping power has also been improved with 4-wheel disc brakes.

The third iteration of the Dodge Challenger has got to be the most exciting to date! While everyone was looking at hybridization and touchscreen everything for their cars, Dodge stuck with an old-school, tried-and-tested formula for their muscle car. They offered it with a monstrous Hellcat V8 under the hood in various states of tune (a six-cylinder unit was also available for the less adventurous), and wrapped it with a long body that could easily accommodate four adults. This iteration of Challenger was made between 2008 and 2023, and spawned several potent variants. Today, we’ve got a 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Super Stock for sale from Spanish Springs, Nevada. With just 107 miles on the clock, this is a special edition of just 267 cars. It’s got 807 horsepower, Demonic Red Laguna Leather seating, a car cover, factory drag radials, and much more.
Dodge created something awesome in 2008 when they trotted out the Challenger. It was a time when the world was changing, gravitating towards electric and hybrid mobility. Dodge decided to buck the trend and went old-school, with a grumbly, V8-powered muscle car bearing a famous name from their illustrious past of creating rambunctious road machines. Hot variants would get Hellcat V8s under the hood. When the Challenger was due to retire in 2023, Dodge decided to send it out with a bang and created the Hellcat 170 derivative. That’s what we have here today, a 13-mile 2023 Dodge Challenger Demon 170 from Dover, New Hampshire. 1 of 369 in sublime green and 1 of 64 with no back seat. This car packs a factory-gifted 1,025 horsepower, and can do 0-60 in under 2 seconds if the conditions are right. That’s insane, to say the least, but what’s even more insane is, it’s still kind of practical. OK the rear seats are gone, but much of the model’s tech toys and creature comforts remain.
The third generation Dodge Challenger is one of the most desirable muscle cars of recent times, simply because it combines old-school brawn with new-age brain, so to speak. Introduced in 2008, the Challenger continued in this form all the way up to 2023, with myriad updates and special editions. It’s a fine muscle car for the modern era, as it can carry your family during the week, then tear up the drag strip on the weekend. Here, we’ve got a Challenger that’s a bit more potent than your usual SRT variant. The Super Stock trim came in 2020 and raised power to 807 horsepower, as well as some drag racing optimizations. That’s what we have here, a 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock for sale from Monroe Township, New Jersey with just 2,463 miles on the clock. It’s got the Technology Group, Driver Convenience Group, Laguna Leather Package, Plus Package and all the things that make a car comfortable for daily driving. Oh, and 807 horsepower. Yes, that.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
