Throughout America's automobile history, many car models were introduced and were just one-hit wonders. During the late 1960s, Pontiac, by then part of General Motors, wanted to compete with Ford's latest Pony car, the Ford Mustang. In came the Pontiac Firebird, with its Coke Bottle styling, slit taillights, and quad headlights, which were snatched up by the public in droves. Pontiac went on to produce the Firebird until 2002 with four generations of the iconic car under its belt. The third generation Firebird was produced from 1981 to 1992 and featured a radically new design from its outgoing generation. It, of course, was tremendously helped by the 80's hit TV show, Knight Rider. Up for the taking is a 1988 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am GTA, of which only 9,765 were built in the US of A and ready for the next owner to relive the good ol' muscle car days.
Undoubtedly, the '60s was the era for muscle cars, but the decades that followed may have garnered a reputation for toning that approach down just a tad. However, this changed in the 2000s with the release of the first-generation tribute Mustang and the rebirth of the Chevrolet Camaro that is now popular from the Transformer franchise. But there was another new-age muscle car that deserves a look, too: this iconic 2006 Pontiac GTO we have today. With a reported 66,000 miles on the clock, this American powerhouse is built to take your weekend drives up a notch and be the talking point at your local car show.
The Pontiac GTO stands as an icon from the muscle car era, representing the collective effort of every major American car maker. Arguably one of the most coveted offerings of its time, the GTO made its debut in 1963 for the 1964 model year, envisioned as a high-performance vehicle aimed at capturing a younger audience. Originally conceived as a sports-oriented variant of the Pontiac Tempest, it quickly evolved into a standalone model. Undergoing a redesign, the 1966 Pontiac GTO embraced a more refined appearance, boasting a coke-bottle design and an impressive hood scoop. Our featured car boasts a frame-off restoration, including a rebuilt engine and transmission, ensuring future longevity with a powder-coated frame and new suspension all around. Nestled under the hood is a potent 389ci V8 engine paired with a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, offering enthusiasts the quintessential American muscle car experience with a mild 195 miles complete since the restoration.
Pontiac may be a brand name that has long since been put out to pasture, but the love for some of their most iconic cars remains strong today. That's why cars like this 1965 Pontiac GTO have a cult fanbase, who admire the engineering, power, and presence that was presented to the public in the ’60s. The Pontiac GTO was devised from the Tempest but quickly became its own standalone model. Conjured up by GM executives during a company-wide ban on racing, the GTO was a breath of fresh air. It offered genuine performance credentials and set a blazing trail that other muscle cars soon tried to follow. Our featured car is a 1965 Pontiac GTO Convertible, which features a modern powerplant in the form of a 6.0-liter LS2 V8 engine. This incredible restomod presents itself from the outside with the kind of subtly expected of a sleeper and could be yours.
The '70s saw big changes for the American automotive industry; the oil crisis meant large gas guzzlers were out the door, and the American car buyer had to embrace the fuel-sipping performance showcased by imports. Prior to 1973, however, the world was filled with performance and sharp looks; today, it is an example of intense performance and good looks that stems from the golden era of muscle cars. Are you looking to get your hands on your very own example of unfiltered muscle? This 1970 Plymouth Road Runner could be the answer.

The Chevelle was conceived as Chevrolet’s midsized model, sitting above the Chevy II Nova, and below larger cars such as the Impala. The first-generation Chevelle sports clean lines and an elegant silhouette, with a large grille, plenty of chrome, and four headlamps up front. Based on the A-Body platform, the 1964–1967 generation of Chevelle was availble in a variety of configurations, including 2-door sedan, convertible, four-door sedan, coupe utility, and station wagon variations. Our featured car is a 1965 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu, which features a new V8 engine and transmission, and well as many new cosmetic and mechanical parts to make this classic car look show-ready.
