Ross McComb's '66 Mustang features a full suspension from Gateway Classic Mustang. Underhood resides a Kenne-Bell-blown 4.6L Mod motor that makes 675 hp at the flywheel. Other goodies include Baer six-piston brakes and a TKO 600 five-speed.

During the severe economic downturn of the late '50s and early '60s, many manufacturers built low-cost compact cars that sipped gas by the teaspoon, not the gallon. The '61 Ford Falcon was one of those cars. As a featherweight, these cars make excellent hot rodding fodder, and Larry Crisler (Decatur, Illinois) recognized that by stuffing a 408ci Windsor stroker 'neath the hood of his. To keep it from completely twisting into a pretzel, it's got a Total Control suspension.

Phil Gerber of The Roadster Shop turns out some of the sweetest hot rods in the land-so what's he doing with this beater '70 C10 pickup? He's driving the crap out of it-that's what! Don't let the looks fool you, it's loaded for bear. Goodies include a stock Corvette LS6, Tremec TKO 500, a new Fast Track Roadster Shop chassis, and Wilwood 14-inch brakes.

Here's the car that started the muscle car revolution: the '64 Pontiac GTO. Pontiac purists can hate it all they want, but we love the 427ci LS7, which makes a stout 650 hp. The grunt is managed by a Schwartz chassis, six-piston Baer brakes, a T56 trans from a Viper, and 18-inch Forgeline wheels wrapped with BFG rubber. The car is owned by Don Eduflsen of McHenry, Illinois.
