There were some truly awesome muscle cars built in the '60s and '70s.

In the third installment of this muscle car series we look at the flat out quickest factory muscle cars of the golden era.

Randy Weaver’s Ford Galaxie may not have been blessed with good genes, but going on a diet let the R-Code machine run at peak performance.

The clean, sleek, and sharp lines of the 1966 Fairlane XL500 427 R-Code made for a very rare ride indeed.

Only 57 examples were made in '66 due to tooling issues with the tricky exhaust manifolds.

Hurst high performance parade hits high gear with the R-CODE Mustang.

We've come across some pretty rare Fords and Mustangs browsing through Craigslist over the years, but this Q-Code 428 CJ powered Mustang Mach 1 is quite the rarity. Find all the details on this late '60s car here.

In terms of the look, we’re talking about the ’66-’67 Fairlane two-door hardtops that were produced for just those two short years, with one of the most dramatic rooflines extant during the 1960s.

When Ford replaced the 406 with the 427 in 1963, the company was running on all cylinders. Take a look at any Ford from 1963 or 1964 and it's amazing how attractive they were across the board. By 1967, the 427 was having its swan swan song, and this 427 LTD on eBay is among the rarest of the breed.
