We’ve got Dodges, Chevys and Fords that can still be found for cheap, and even some cars you wouldn’t expect. It all depends on your definition of “classic.” Join James as we look at 10 classic, yet offbeat muscle cars that are guaranteed to rip the noooostiest skids.

    I've got another tip to broaden your horizon on muscle cars. A lot of the classics came in four-doors. A lot of people don't like them for some reason. So the four doors are often cheaper.

      Perfect example is my ‘67 Dart 270, it’s got a 273 V8 and is easy to hop up and get parts for. Definitely 4 doors for sure. If you can’t afford a 2 door the 4 door is always going for half what a two door is or less

    8 years ago when I was around 9 or 10, My mom asked me what I wanted my first car to be. Obviously being an aspiring car boy I replied, "A Mustang!" At that point I practically wrote off that idea as BONKERS because the price tag of earlier mustangs were easily 8, 9, 10 thousand dollars. SO, this year I was ready to buy myself my first car. I was looking at anything in my price range of 0 to 2000 buckaroos. and I found pretty much junkers. Until I started looking at cheap Mustangs. I saw trashed 90's Mustangs for around my price range but didn't want to have to bring them from the grave because I didn't have the money. This caused me to wait, watch, and listen for people selling Mustangs in my price range. Luckily, one of my dads co-workers was thinking about selling his 2005 Mustang GT. So we started talking and bargaining and I ended up buying this car for 2K with minor issues. It has a 4.6L V8 with 300hrsprs all original interior and 107,000 miles on it. I Kelly Blue Booked it and for its condition it was supposed to be around 6K.

      @bjsteg79 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Had a 07 GT and loved it to death until the 2011 5.0L came out. Choice at the time was to go forward with slapping a procharger on the 4.6 and have the same HP as the new 2011, or sell it and get a 2011. Well... time went by and I ended up doing neither, wound up with a 2013 kia optima turbo (very hate, much despise) that I later traded for 2015 WRX (very love, she was bestest in snow). Currently shopping for a 2015-2019 GT or 2010-? Shelby fun car.
      Moral of my Ted Talk is to have fun with the GT. It's a great car, perfect for a 1st wheel burner and wrenching car.

      Hell yea man. If this is your first car then you will def have some fun. Honestly man the old saying is true, “everyone wrecks their first car.“ Although it of course isn’t true for everyone but it is a very high number that do. So have fun but I would slowly get better and better at driving as you go. Try not to push it to hard right away. I’ve made that mistake and dearly regretted it. You will think your a amazing driver right away, and you very well could be. But you should take your time and ease into it bro. You’ll appreciate it more too. Take care bro. It’s awesome to see another gear head get set free

    I've loved the El Camino and 3rd gen Camaro since I was a kid in the early 90s. Our nextdoor neighbors had a pair of Camaros in black and white, and their friend had a metallic blue/green Iroc. Seeing and hearing those three cars almost every day undoubtedly had an affect on me. Or maybe it was all the weed smoke drifting into my room every night from their back porch 🤔

    A year ago I was looking for a first car, wanted a classic and found a 1961 Thunderbird in a barn. It had 17301 miles on it an all original interior, and a gas receipt from 1992. I paid $2600 for it and walked away with a brand new tbird. It has no rust, a 390, and has sat for 28 years. I’ve put new shocks, fluids and tires into it. It only has one major issue where anything rubber on it is cracked and needs replaced, but that white leather interior is mint. That 390 is currently kicking 300 horsepower and is the best first car ever.

      The called it that because it was as reliable as a boat anchor, but not quite as heavy. Iron Block, Iron Head, Gear drive camshaft, with pushrods.
      Like any engine, you *CAN* make horsepower, but it's like spending the same amount on a small block V-8, to get half the horsepower. You could probably do a modern build with a turbo running about 10 psi boost, and a blow thru fuel injection, and make about 250-300 hp. It'd be a hoot in an old Fiero or Cavalier.
      Or you could leave it stock, change the oil every 3000 miles, and it will run 250-300k.
      Half dozen of one, six of the other. Your choice.

      Hello peoplee they were also used in early Chevy II’s, midgets and boats. The boat engines are mostly 180 cubic inches while the cars got 153 cubes. Still, they run well for such led technology. But stay away from the later 152’s with cross flow heads. Unless you can find aftermarket heads for them they are very unreliable, with cracked heads ruining most of them!

    The later model 3rd gen Camaros did come with manual transmissions, however you couldn't have the 5.7L with the 5-speed manual transmission from the factory. All of the 5-speed manuals came with the 5.0L 305cid engine and they're few and far between these days. The good thing is that if you find one with a manual/5.0, you'll be able to snatch it up pretty cheap because very few want a car with a manual transmission.

    My dad had an IROC Z. His parents sold it while he was on a mission trip and bought him a diesel VW Rabbit instead. We’ve never forgiven them.

      my pops sold my 1970 Roadrunner when I enlisted in the Army. His father sold his Duesenberg Boattail Speedster when he went in the Navy in WWII. I bought a 1971 Satellite Sebring Plus when I came home from the Army. Now I drive a 2020 Cherokee Trailhawk. Surely you've heard the old saying: "It's better to have loved and lost, than to never have loved at all". They're just cars, and the future is always bright.

    I bought a 66 mustang with a v8 from a high school friend that drive it in high school and parked it in his backyard after driving the piss out of it. There it sat for the better part of 15 years till he sold it to me I’ve been slowly rebuilding it pulled the tired old 289 out and have built a spicy 5.0 302 with all the goods lumpy camshaft, performance heads headers....so on, I’m installing the engine this week finally. I’ve been trying to own a hotrod since I’ve been old enough to drive, and it’s taken me nearly 20 years to bring that to fruition. I love driving, I love old cars and I love HP so I’m very excited to get behind the wheel. Vroom vroom!!!

    If you’re looking to get into building/restoring an old muscle car, a great place to start, in my opinion is with a 1960’s thunderbird.
    Yeah, it might not be “muscle” as in quick track times, but you can pick one up for dirt cheap, learn how to work on cars with them because they are very easy to work on, and have the “Q-code” version with a 7.0 328FE motor that is practically immortal.
    It’s a beautiful, fun ride with cool style and super easy (relatively) and cheap to work on.
