This vintage Motor Trend review for the 1968 Shelby GT500KR brings back all sorts of memories from a time when cars were cars, men were men, and Shelby was the foremost name in Ford performance.

With the recent passing of Carroll Shelby, we find ourselves looking back on the legacy he will leave. Not only did Shelby build great cars, but he also influenced the comedy styling of Bill Cosby, as this famous bit from Cosby’s album “200 MPH” shows.

Dean Martin was the “King of Cool”, and his choice in cars reflects that. This one-of-26 Ghia L6.4 is powered by a Chrysler V8 and customized by George Barris himself. And for a couple hundred thousand dollars, it can be yours!

The first production Shelby Cobra will be on display at the Dana Point Concours d’Elegance this June. This one-off Shelby has lived quite the life, but now it enjoys a plush retirement as one of the most important Shelby cars ever.

From a tragic death comes an inspiring story of a community of soldiers and volunteers coming together to finish a father’s final gift to his family. The story of Captain Bruce Hayes and his ’59 Apache pickup is a reminder of the good that people can do together.

The 2013 Shelby GT500 is the most powerful street Mustang Ford has ever made, and a lot of effort went into getting it right. And Ford isn’t even done yet, taking the new Shelby to the famed Nurburgring for some final tuning before sales begin later this summer.

What do you do with a dying engine? This video shows one way to deal with a motor on its last legs; blow the bastard up. Beware, engine carnage ahead.

Cleveland Engine Plant No. 2 will make its last engine this Friday. The 250 workers will be folded into a third shift as Ford closes another chapter in its long history.

The death of a loved one can turn family members against each other. In one bizarre case, a Connecticut man is accused of stealing and selling the 1973 Camaro willed to the daughter of his dead brother.

The RAM SRT-10 is one powerful pickup truck, but can it take down Europe’s elite SUV crowd…while hauling a big plastic bovine in its bed? Tune into this video to see how the RAM handles Mercedes, Range Rover, and BMW’s best SUV’s.

The Fiat-Chrysler alliance has produced some strange results, none stranger than the diesel-powered Chrysler 300C being sold in the UK. It will only come with a V6 diesel engine, but with 400 ft-lbs of torque and a 33 mpg rating, it ain’t no slouch.

In 1963 Ford wanted to improve the image of its compact Falcon coupe, so they entered it in the Monte Carlo rally. By 1964 they were dominating their class. Now this class-winning Falcon is heading back to Monte Carlo to be auctioned off. How much will this historical rally racer fetch on the auction block?

Most Camaro owners know not to gun it down residential streets…most, but not all. Sherman Holland lost control of this classic Camaro and wound up driving it right into a pool after taking a corner too fast. Sure, it was a quick way to clean his Camaro, but the damage probably wasn’t worth it…

Hot rods and hot girls go together so well, and we love a chick who can appreciate a fast ride. The girl riding shotgun in this 600 horsepower rat rod sure knows how to have a good time as she alternates between laughing and screaming as the driver whips about like a madman in his old Model A.

Every fan of hot rods and kustom cars should know the name of Gene Winfield. And if you don’t you’d do well to watch this brief intro to his life story from the DVD Kings of Kustom.

Production of the 950+ horsepower Shelby 1000 is already under way in Las Vegas as the world renowned Mustang tuner moves to build the first of its supercars.

The last car of its kind ever built worth more than the first of its kind? Depends on who you ask. For $115,000 though, the price of this 54-mile ’93 Cobra R seems steep. But it is the last ’93 Cobra R built. Is it worth the asking price?

Burnouts are universally cool, but only in controlled, safe conditions. The guy driving the ute in the next video was anything but safe, and his Aussie performance truck paid the price.

Looking for a new suspension for your old car? This video from Heidts shows that upgrading a classic Chevelle’s suspension ain’t no big thang, though the difference in ride and performance will shock you.
