My wife and I bought our first car just before we got married in 1969. It was a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR7 with a 289 engine and 4 barrel carburetor. We drove it across the country from Southern California on a week long trip to Newport, RI while I was stationed in the Navy. After I left the service we had it shipped to Honolulu, HI where I was from and planned to finish college. After I graduated I was hired by Boeing in Seattle, WA. The car was shipped to Seattle and served as our primary car for a year. We then moved to Portland, OR and finally to San Diego not far from the dealer we bought it from. During all that time it was driven almost on a daily. Our kids had driven it as well until probably 15 years ago when we stopped driving it because of gas prices. But it’s now in the shop for a much needed restoration and looking forward to driving it again. This video just reminded me how beautiful these cars were during that period.
Throughly enjoyed this great history lesson video. Born in 1959, I wasn't old enough to buy these cars new, But I did grow up around them all. On my 16th birthday in 1975, I was given a 1964 Oldsmobile F85 Cutlass sedan in MINT condition, 330 v8, power steering power brakes and factory AC, which blew ice cold. Light metallic blue, I loved it. Drove it till late 1977 when I bought a 1968 Mustang from the original owners, Diamond blue, 2 tone blue interior, 289, automatic, power steering, factory AC, special ordered hood with the turn signal indicators in it, white vynil top, and MANUAL 4 wheel drum brakes! 47 years later, I still own this car and its still in beautiful condition and on the road. I know its not anything super special, but it is to me! My brother had a 69 Cougar in the early 70s.I liked it alot. I also have my parents 58 cadillac they bought in 1960 when I was 1 year old. It has the optional power windows, wonderbar radio, and Rare Factory AC. I grew up with this car, and very fortunate to now own it all these years, My mom gave it to me in 1982. Its also still on the road.. All lifelong Southern California cars. I had a 79 Trans Am, and I also have a 94 Trans Am I bought new. Ive kept that one too. As you might have guessed, I'm a complete CAR NUT!!! Thanks again for the trip down memory lane.
Awesome story, really enjoyed it!! I was also born in 1959 and also a car nut! Unfortunately didn't have the list of beautiful cars you had. I had a couple of Z28's in the early 80s. For ten years I've owned a restored supped up 74 Challenger (w/o the 5 mph bumpers) that is set up like a 70 T/A.
My dad taught me to drive when I was 13 in his '69 GTO that didn't look pretty for its age but, sure was fast. Unfortunately he passed away suddenly 2 years later. However, today I am a proud owner of a numbers matching 32 option '69 GTO today in his memory.
I know a guy who has a 69 GTO Judge with the ram air 3 package, stock except for headers. He thought the same "sure was fast" until he raced against my factory stock original 67 Plymouth GTX. The GTO has some style going for it but just can't compete against the 440 Super Commando in a drag race. More torque, a bit lighter weight. The GTX even handles better than his GTO through the twisties. But if I WAS going to drive a Pontiac, the Judge is not a bad choice.
No corolation to the age but I bought a 91 Civic hatchback 24 years ago for $600 at the local car auction. She was Ugg-a-LEE!! Fast forward to today in 2024 she's pristine and gets more waves and horn honks than you can even imagine lol. I know it's not a "true classic" but there's something about driving a car with a manual transmission, no airbags, no ABS, no power steering that just gives nothing but pure nostalgia. They'll bury me in it!
65 Mustang Late night cruisin the PCH with your fave tunes playing after watching the Sun sink into the ocean!!! Pure Magic.Rog.Pacific Sunset Records.
Best time to be alive! I owned a couple of the cars and nothing has met my standards since. My '70 Roadrunner was the best car I've every owned. Thanks for uploading. P.S. I just had to buy a new car and, let me tell ya, the thrill is gone completely with what we have to choose from today.
The Cougar in the thumbnail is beautiful! I had a '67 Fairlane GTA that I liked a lot, a '67 GTO that was okay, a '68 Torino convertible that was cool, several 60's Mustangs, I could go on and on. It was like a hobby of mine, to keep switching cars. Back in the 70's, you could buy nice cars for super-cheap, and the repairs weren't so ridiculously expensive, as they are today.
I had a 69 Javelin, my very first car. The only thing I didn’t like about it was that the windshield wipers operated with a vacuum. It rained heavily in Hilo Hawaii back then and it was a nightmare stepping on the gas pedal and having the wipers stutter and almost stop in a downpour. Imagine this at night with oncoming headlights. Felt like I was sitting in a movie theater watching someone else.
I like your attention to detail. True story my father brought home a black 1964 GTO with red pin stripe tires. It was magnificent. I was 10 years old at the time and I will always remember that. Thanks again.
I was a 11 years old in 68 delivering newspapers. One of my customers had a 67 Hemi GTX 4 speed black on black. That was the car of my dreams until the 71 hemi cuda with a shaker and pistol grip made its debut. So many great cars in that era, all the manufacturers were giving customers something to drool over.
Having a paper route back in the day pretty much gave plenty of us younguns complete permission to walk around, snoop, touch, and drool over most the newest cars in the whole neighborhood.
Jcs57: this comment really caught my attention. I ALSO was an 11 year old in 1968 with a paper route in upstate NY. Two of my customers that lived right next door to each other; one with a red Mustang Mach 1 and the other with a gold Plymouth GTX. I didn't know enough about cars back then to know what engines they had but they sure looked and sounded GREAT! This and other muscle cars on my route made a big impression on me. Over the years I have had a Nova SS, supercharged Grand Prix, 2 Trans Ams and now on my 3rd Corvette, a 2023. We were on welfare when I was a kid and never did I think I would own a car with almost 500 horsepower!!
This is an outstanding presentation of some of the most beloved cars of this era. I am a big fan of all the vehicles mentioned, but I have always been partial to Ford's, particularly the 1969 Boss and Mach 1 cars. Kudos to you for presenting such a thorough and unbiased report.👍🏾👍🏾

For a young man in the early to mid 70s, those wicked 60s cars were the bargain cars a fella could afford. What a time to be alive. By the 80s, the pickin's were getting slim.
The difference was probably that you had a car note and full coverage ins. I bought a '68 XL (390/C6) ragtop in '75 and could afford gas. No car note and cheap insurance. @@stevemccarty6384
My first clunker was a passed down 65 Four door Ford country sedan with a C-6 bolted to a 289 2 barrel motorcraft carb. Came standard, with a 5 gal gas can and an Oklahoma credit card,, which at sixteen, I used more than the freckle faced red head next door😮😅! Miss that ole gas can. 56:07
Yep, you picked the best. And MAJOR kudos for featuring a ‘68 Cougar GTE for the thumbnail. I’m partial to ‘67-‘70 Cougars and have owned models from all 4 years.
Grew up in the 60s having rode in many of those cars. The best real American cars ever built in this country. Even built new today, they would outlast all of this electronic garbage by far.
Z My dad had 64 GTO with a six pack, and I later owned 76 Vega with four cylinder twin cam 76 done by brilliant GM John Delorean. That evil black Vega was my paint wagon, and spent alota time in Fullerton California and San Clemente and knew tricky Dick was a criminal, but not nearly as nasty as Kissinger. Fantastic post. We were the epitomy of Evil after Kennedy's death, but we kicked ass
I suppose the low-compression net horsepower cars CAN be included as they can be easily upgraded to the early level BUT they were late-to-the-party - and by 1973’s oil embargo and spike in fuel prices the musclecar era had its knockout punch. There was rationing and long “gas lines” - street racing was over. And then “Cash For Clunkers” killed-off the big land yachts with the powertrains to restore and build clones from - so the crazy prices now are from nostalgia of the 🤩 fun it was when speed was cheap and racing wasn’t a heinous crimes like it is now. The EXPERIENCE it was cannot be understood by those who weren’t there then.
@@IfThisCarCouldTalk My golden decade of muscle cars was 1962 to 1972 there was some nice more plastic cars after 72 but the smog motors and safety features and ofcourse politics of almost destroying the domestic auto industry for other interests,,, not ours that's for shure.
My first car was a '68 Ford LTD coupe with a 4-barrel carb and a 390 under the hood. My father bought it for me in 1972. It was pretty fast! I found out from a high-school classmate that his father had raced it at the track, it had been in a flood over the roof, and the front end had been replaced. The rear was hopped up with air shocks, also. The interior featured non-working rear windows and a hole in the passenger floorboard carpet, likely due to the flood, but I loved the burgundy color with the black vinyl roof! It was a very nice-looking car! The video was great, and I subscribed. I'm looking forward to your next video!
Awesome and welcome to the ITCCT family! Thanks for sharing your memory and you'll find lots to watch here! We'll be doing another Top Cars feature - probably in Feb. If you would consider joining our Patreon membership, it would greatly appreciated and a super way to help us grow! You'll hear more about that with tomorrow's video! Thanks again!
My favorite out of all cars I’ve owned was a 69 mercury cougar. Ive had a BMW 635 CSI, AND 5 brand new mustang GTs. But that cougar was my favorite. Long time ago I drove it from Bonita in San Diego to Yosemite national Park. That ride was smooth and comfortable. When we got there I wasn’t even tired. I wish I still had it.
Chevy also made a 327/375 HP IN 1967 MY Father had one in a 1967 Impala, which He Wrecked and I put the engine in a1965 Impala with Headers and Poweglide, never lost a Street Race 👍😎
Small block 375 HP 327" engine had fuel injection and ended in mid 1965... think it was only available in Corvettes... it and big block 409" V8 then both replaced by 375 HP and 425 HP 396" engine...
I drove a 1970 428 / 4speed / Ram-air Mustang when I was 16 - Wow ! I was scared to go to fourth gear ! Cars back then could break the seats loose from the floorboard !
The AMC AMX and Javlin's were beautiful looking cars, in many ways sleeker than the comperable Mustangs IMHO. The 401 was a rather torquey engine and hammered.
My first car was a 65 Plymouth sport fury three that I got from my uncle and it was pretty fast for Plymouth back and 65 with all the power options right from the dealer it was a fast car
Oh man, sorry to hear that! You should get another one! I bought my 68 Mustang in 1977, I was 17. Was my daily till I bought my 1st new car in 1980, a Toyota Celica. Since then its just used for fun, car shows and running errands around town.somtimes I'll drive it to the beach , San Diego, or Newport Beach. About 110 miles from home,, Stretch her legs.. I pretty much new shortly after I bought it I would never sell it. 47 years now, where the hell did the time go....I still have it.
This is one of the finest car videos I've seen. If you could ever do a top 25 muscle car golden era 64 to 72 that would be great. This video made me search images of every car on the list along as you narrated.
WOW - thanks so much Dennis! Appreciate the suggestion and hope you're a subscriber! We put a lot of work into these lists and it is so great to know you love it! We were just talking about doing a purely muscle top list so stay tuned!
I really enjoyed this video! I love the 428 CJ Torino fastbacks. They were the most beautiful car ever! And the 69 Mustang 428CJ. I have a friend who ran one in C/SA in NHRA and he could stand it up 2 feet out of the hole and ride the wheelie almost 60 ft. That 428CJ C6 was a badass car!
My favorite GTO was in the last photo of your video… that gorgeous blue, black vinyl top with the honeycomb grill. Born in ‘54 my first post-graduation purchase was a ‘67 Cougar XR7, lime green, vinyl top, white letter tires, black interior with center console… my late mother always said it was her favorite of all my cars through the years.
This was absolutely the best photography of the best muscle cars ever produced. One of my hobbies is drawing. Particularly muscle cars of the 60s and 70s. I might add the summer when I was 17 going on 18 I was fortunate enough to purchase a 1969 Mustang from a young couple expecting a baby. How much fun could a guy have than to be 18 working at a gas station, and driving a 69 Mustang with a 428 CJ 4 spd. The previous owner only checked off the 428 shaker ram air, 4 spd, front disc brakes, I’m not sure what the color was called, but I called it Bullet Green, and the stylish steel wheels. Other than the CJ Ram air the car looked like the bare bones entry level 6 banger. Getting back to your video. Thank you for putting together the nicest cars ever. I don’t know what to draw first!
Out of all the cars I've had, the one I wish I still had is a '67 Cougar that I put a built 351C w/top loader and a 9" w/disks out of a '79 Versailles in!
Great watch..... Really liked the way you covered the 65 GT350 so well "lol lol." Funny thing about the 69 Mustangs that most people don't notice is that it was a single year body with 4 headlights, in 70 Mustang went back to two headlights. It took ten years before mustang would again have four headlights (1979.) The list of cars was well picked, I did miss the 1970 AMC Rebel Machine, it would have gone great with the AMX and S/C Rambler -- we called it the AMC Triple Threat.
I looked at a 68' Charger right out of HS in the 70s. I passed on it because it was a non performance 383 with single exhaust grocery getter. Ended up getting a 69 RoadRunner with the performance 383, the power was like night and day even the the HP on paper were not that far off...they lied.
Most people forget that the '70 Challenger and Cuda debuted in fall of '69. Maybe a mention? I think the late 60s Dodge Darts and Plymouth Barracuda's were also 2 of the fastest cars out there. Especially on the drag strips.
Thank you! I also believe this was the period of greatest assortment of beautiful contemporary styling and performance in the history of the U.S. auto industry, though I would include 1970. That year saw the magnificent new 'Cuda and Challenger introduction, my favorite version for the '68 Charger body style, the nicest iteration of the Torino GT/Cyclone when featuring hidden headlights, and the AMC Rebel Machine. You may have also included a look at the Mercury Marauder X-100 with the 429, and the '69 Chevy [Impala] SS 427. My beautiful cousin got a '67 GTO convertible for her graduation. Blue, with white interior & top, it had every comfort/convenience option, and I just loved it. That, and the '68/'69 GTOs with hideaway headlights are my favorite GTOs.
When you get a couple of real Hot rods. . If it wasn't a 396 Chevelle SS. Buy sister. Then there are the guys wanting to add nitrios oxide. . But then goes stalk.😅
My friends brother had a 66 Fairlane GT 4 speed he bought in HS in the early 70s. He upped his cam and did so more performance work. You could hear him coming halfway down the street even at idle.
Those days were 50 years ago guys! A lifetime. I was an officer in the Marine Corps. We'd drive to the dealership and buy new Porche 911s. They cost $8,000 and we could afford one. I, however, bought a Volvo....yeah, I know.
Cars of that era like houses and clothing followed classical design principles set out by Romans 2000 years ago. It is the reason why 1950s, 60s and 70s cars look proportional no matter how big or small they were.
Although the 427 engine was not available in the 1967 Ford Fairlane GT, it was available in the standard Fairlane and the Fairlane 500XL. The W-code Fairlane came with a single four barrel carburetor while the R-code Fairlane came with two four barrel carburetors.
A very interesting video featuring lots of great 1960s American cars. I was surprised to see a British Ford Anglia 105E on the front lot of the John Matthews dealership in the first picture shown in your video. I didn't know they were sold in the US.
Got my license in a 65 fastback back in 82 I never owned a true muscle car but fortunately I drove many of dad’s cars I had a older sister who always had stylish rides and she had a couple true muscle cars like 69 judge ! 77 TA 69 vetted to name a few she did however sell me my favorite car A 78 280/z
Now I don't remember the first time I saw a AMX/Javelin but I do remember having a model car version of it you could either build it the stock or have it blown all out with the blower sitting on top with it on the big Meat tires and the headers and all that good stuff and that's the way I put mine together I love that car
I enjoyed this but I have to correct an assertion posited in this video. The Mustang was not the best selling car in America in 1965. That honor goes to the Chevrolet Impala, which was not only the best selling car in America that year, but it also recorded the single highest volume sales year for any nameplate in any year with over a million units sold. It’s worth noting that those impressive sales figures were achieved in a 12-month sales year while Mustang sales were just under 700,000 (also wildly successful) with both 1964.5 and 1965 added together.
Thank you for watching and for correcting us with your Impala stats. We appreciate you being so courteous! We don't mind being told new information and hopefully others will see this comment. Keep watching and hope you subscribed!
Had a 69 Cougar. standard 351 W engine was still a mover. I did think they were some of the best looking cars of the day. And don't forget the "hide away" headlights & turn signals that ran across the back pointing to the direction the car was taking. . From the middle to the outside. Would lo0ve to see one now days( consentual)?
@@johnfranklin5277Mine was blue ( twice) had it painted Silver/Blue. Blue interior. I had an 8-track player installed behind the Cougar plaque right in center of dash but I kept the plaque in the car.
@@johnfranklin5277 No, but I still wish I did.I was young & stupid. Sold it to a buddy at work. Cougar's get as bad rap being the Cousin of the Mustang. Back in the days of an 8-track player. I'm a car guy & I miss that 1. I bought a van & that's all of those days, they were more useful than a car.
My neighbor replaced his 1959 station wagon with a 1966 Comet GT liken to the maroon one his was an automatic!! Beautiful car as was Ralph's 1966 GTO. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
And you blew past the Buick Gran Sport ? Amazing the sleeper that surprised more than one gear head that thought they had the hottest car on the road .
Good summary but one very sad omission is the '65 Buick Riviera GS. With it's clam shell hide away headlights, 425 (Wildcat 340hp/465 ft-lb!!!) Nailhead engine, first year of the Grand Sport, it's a classic and one of my favorites.
A great choice and one we'll definitely include in a follow up feature down the road. We love those Rivieras too! Glad you enjoyed it though and thanks for watching! Wish we could have done a top 50 list! What do you think about us doing a Buick only feature? There was a lot going on with Buick then!
Wildcat,,, who made it, mercuty? And,, never saw ya mention the Pontiac Grandprix Or the 65 ford falcon 2 door station wagon. Rare one as well. Came with a pony 289.
Great list, can't fault it. 1 thing of mention was that Plymouth saw what happened with the GTO and wanted to up the ante with the largest Mopar mill they had, the 440, as std equipment instead of the 383 in a stripped down B car. Thus the GTX was born. Unfortunately executives decided to up market this car to the high priced segment in 67. It never sold well throughout its lifespan. Fun fact, ads of 67 and 68 called this car 'The Boss' but never patented or trademarked the phrase. Ford caught it for 69 and has used it for many years now. OOpppss.
Even tho there are several 60s era cars I love along with the early 70s being a gen Xer I love some of the malaise era cars I love their boxy style long hoods short trunks and plush interior, they are condemned by many for their pathetic power output levels even big block cars BUT being a gear head these cars can be brought to muscle car performance and then some very easily and most of us can't leave anything alone so they would be built up regardless of their original output. My idea of a cool car would be a mid 70s 2 door LTD or a mid 70s gran prix both with the usual healthy engine fat tires and nice sounding exhaust, I just love that crazy long front end and the 4 rectangle headlights and big grill. The 2 door dodge diplomats and lebaron are nice looking cars too imo. I'd say it's just because of the fond memories from my childhood, that's what people drove. A funny thing was in this day n age a 10 to 15 year car being in good condition is very common but back when I was a kid a mid 80s car seemed pretty nice but even mid to early 70s cars especially late 60 s cars were pretty cashed out and most were beat up primer bombers that mostly young people drove. I bought my 82 GMC k1500 in 94ish and by then it had been partially repainted the interior seemed aged, exhaust had been changed grill had the directionals in the grill ones in bumper were non functional, had maroon fur on door panels, lift kit and it even had a little bit of rust repairs! A 12 year old truck!! And it had been fairly well taken care of just driven. It was pretty but well used and modified. Most 2012 trucks aren't that kind of condition, most of the ones up here in the north are really rusty but the rest seem pretty original and in good shape and really nice in the south.
Great content, thanks for prepping and presenting. I think a car that you could have included that would fit the style and power from this era would have been the Ford Thunderbird. It had one of its most iconic designs in the 1967-69 period.
My wife and I bought our first car just before we got married in 1969. It was a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR7 with a 289 engine and 4 barrel carburetor.

Wow - they still have the vacuum wipers then? Made life interesting! Thanks for watching and sharing your memory! Keep watching!
I have🎉 3 69 amx cars all have electric wipers. I think vacumn wipers were extinct in early sixties not late, u mistaken.
Look at all the colors! Hardly a drab white, silver, gray or tan to be found!
I like your attention to detail. True story my father brought home a black 1964 GTO with red pin stripe tires. It was magnificent. I was 10 years old at the time and I will always remember that. Thanks again.

Jcs57: this comment really caught my attention. I ALSO was an 11 year old in 1968 with a paper route in upstate NY. Two of my customers that lived right next door to each other; one with a red Mustang Mach 1 and the other with a gold Plymouth GTX. I didn't know enough about cars back then to know what engines they had but they sure looked and sounded GREAT! This and other muscle cars on my route made a big impression on me. Over the years I have had a Nova SS, supercharged Grand Prix, 2 Trans Ams and now on my 3rd Corvette, a 2023. We were on welfare when I was a kid and never did I think I would own a car with almost 500 horsepower!!
@@nyniceguy1318 Great comment and thanks for watching! Keep it up!
This is an outstanding presentation of some of the most beloved cars of this era. I am a big fan of all the vehicles mentioned, but I have always been partial to Ford's, particularly the 1969 Boss and Mach 1 cars. Kudos to you for presenting such a thorough and unbiased report.👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you SO much Lance! These long features are a whole lot of work with the research, writing, editing, etc. and it is great and so appreciated when we hear a response like yours!

My 65 impala SS 2 door was cool for the times. Bucket front seats with lots of room.
Love the 1st and 2nd gen Cougars. I have a 40k mile 67 XR7 car love the look.
Right on! Safe cruising!

Wow, what a nice job you did on this video. These are all the vehicles of my youth!
Thank you so much! Same here...wish I had a few now! Hope you've subscribed and keep watching!
For a young man in the early to mid 70s, those wicked 60s cars were the bargain cars a fella could afford. What a time to be alive. By the 80s, the pickin's were getting slim.
I bought a new '68 Cougar. What a machine! I had to sell it because I couldn't afford to put gas in it at 40 cents a gallon.
The difference was probably that you had a car note and full coverage ins. I bought a '68 XL (390/C6) ragtop in '75 and could afford gas. No car note and cheap insurance. @@stevemccarty6384
My first clunker was a passed down 65 Four door Ford country sedan with a C-6 bolted to a 289 2 barrel motorcraft carb. Came standard, with a 5 gal gas can and an Oklahoma credit card,, which at sixteen, I used more than the freckle faced red head next door😮😅! Miss that ole gas can. 56:07

@@TheJeffShadowShow so sorry
The 60s vehicles are hands down my favorite decade of American vehicles
Buick had some great muscle cars!
No doubt!
1970 GSX Stage 1
Yep, you picked the best. And MAJOR kudos for featuring a ‘68 Cougar GTE for the thumbnail. I’m partial to ‘67-‘70 Cougars and have owned models from all 4 years.
@qmusclecars Yes.
What's a "kudo?"
@@rudolphguarnacci197 kudos means praise for an accomplishment. It’s taken from the Greek word kydos.
@@mattskustomkreations
Is a person able to give just one "kudo" at a time, say for a mediocre performance?
@@rudolphguarnacci197 I’m not sure. Sounds fair to me.
Grew up in the 60s having rode in many of those cars. The best real American cars ever built in this country. Even built new today, they would outlast all of this electronic garbage by far.
At least you could fix it .

My dad had 64 GTO with a six pack, and I later owned 76 Vega with four cylinder twin cam 76 done by brilliant GM John Delorean. That evil black Vega was my paint wagon, and spent alota time in Fullerton California and San Clemente and knew tricky Dick was a criminal, but not nearly as nasty as Kissinger. Fantastic post. We were the epitomy of Evil after Kennedy's death, but we kicked ass
We had, my parents anyway, a 1970 XR7, it was custom ordered. It had an eliminator suspension with XR7 trim and a 351 cleveland.
Very NICE CAR!
If you're going to talk about the muscle car era, you must include 1970 and 71. It started going downhill in 1972.
Don't worry - that feature video will be coming soon!
The Power of regulation
I suppose the low-compression net horsepower cars CAN be included as they can be easily upgraded to the early level BUT they were late-to-the-party - and by 1973’s oil embargo and spike in fuel prices the musclecar era had its knockout punch. There was rationing and long “gas lines” - street racing was over. And then “Cash For Clunkers” killed-off the big land yachts with the powertrains to restore and build clones from - so the crazy prices now are from nostalgia of the 🤩 fun it was when speed was cheap and racing wasn’t a heinous crimes like it is now. The EXPERIENCE it was cannot be understood by those who weren’t there then.
Racer Brown sounded better than any female cranes came in second
@@IfThisCarCouldTalk My golden decade of muscle cars was 1962 to 1972 there was some nice more plastic cars after 72 but the smog motors and safety features and ofcourse politics of almost destroying the domestic auto industry for other interests,,, not ours that's for shure.
My first car was a '68 Ford LTD coupe with a 4-barrel carb and a 390 under the hood. My father bought it for me in 1972. It was pretty fast!
I found out from a high-school classmate that his father had raced it at the track, it had been in a flood over the roof, and the front end had been replaced. The rear was hopped up with air shocks, also. The interior featured non-working rear windows and a hole in the passenger floorboard carpet, likely due to the flood, but I loved the burgundy color with the black vinyl roof! It was a very nice-looking car!
The video was great, and I subscribed. I'm looking forward to your next video!
Awesome and welcome to the ITCCT family! Thanks for sharing your memory and you'll find lots to watch here! We'll be doing another Top Cars feature - probably in Feb. If you would consider joining our Patreon membership, it would greatly appreciated and a super way to help us grow! You'll hear more about that with tomorrow's video! Thanks again!
My favorite of the cars I have owned over the years is a 1965 Teal Turq. Convertible GTO. Wow!
Sounds beautiful!
My favorite out of all cars I’ve owned was a 69 mercury cougar. Ive had a BMW 635 CSI, AND 5 brand new mustang GTs. But that cougar was my favorite. Long time ago I drove it from Bonita in San Diego to Yosemite national Park. That ride was smooth and comfortable. When we got there I wasn’t even tired. I wish I still had it.
BEAUTIFUL !!! BRAVO !!!
Thanks so much! Keep watching!
Chevy also made a 327/375 HP IN 1967 MY Father had one in a 1967 Impala, which He Wrecked and I put the engine in a1965 Impala with Headers and Poweglide, never lost a Street Race 👍😎
Where did your father get the engine from?
Small block 375 HP 327" engine had fuel injection and ended in mid 1965... think it was only available in Corvettes... it and big block 409" V8 then both replaced by 375 HP and 425 HP 396" engine...
@@nojunkwork5735 The Car was a 1967 Chevy Impala and Bought New at Webb Chevrolet in Bowling Green Kentucky and it had a 4 Barrel Carburetor on it 😎👍💯
I drove a 1970 428 / 4speed / Ram-air Mustang when I was 16 - Wow ! I was scared to go to fourth gear ! Cars back then could break the seats loose from the floorboard !
Probably c rust ate the floorpan
The.1968 mercury cougar..was cool 👍👍🇿🇦
we had a xr7-G WITH 7.2 LITER ONLY 2 MADE !
@@brianbyczek-m6p u talkin 429?
The AMC AMX and Javlin's were beautiful looking cars, in many ways sleeker than the comperable Mustangs IMHO.
The 401 was a rather torquey engine and hammered.
@@rossawood5075 390 amc was same
Even though AMC was treated like the bastard child they still did great things.
They sure did! You'll see lots of cool AMC examples here if you go back through our list of features. Thanks!
My first car was a 65 Plymouth sport fury three that I got from my uncle and it was pretty fast for Plymouth back and 65 with all the power options right from the dealer it was a fast car
Great video!!! Loved every minute of it!!! There is not a car here that I wouldnt love to have...
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! Keep it up.
Oh man, sorry to hear that! You should get another one! I bought my 68 Mustang in 1977, I was 17. Was my daily till I bought my 1st new car in 1980, a Toyota Celica. Since then its just used for fun, car shows and running errands around town.somtimes I'll drive it to the beach , San Diego, or Newport Beach. About 110 miles from home,, Stretch her legs.. I pretty much new shortly after I bought it I would never sell it. 47 years now, where the hell did the time go....I still have it.
Awesome and thanks for sharing your memory and it's so cool to hear that you still drive and enjoy her!! Keep it between the ditches!
1969 was the best year ever for cars imo.
Love the 67 Fairlane gt 2 door gorgeous
This is one of the finest car videos I've seen. If you could ever do a top 25 muscle car golden era 64 to 72 that would be great. This video made me search images of every car on the list along as you narrated.
WOW - thanks so much Dennis! Appreciate the suggestion and hope you're a subscriber! We put a lot of work into these lists and it is so great to know you love it! We were just talking about doing a purely muscle top list so stay tuned!
@@IfThisCarCouldTalk if I'm not, I sure will soon as i post. Some car videos are too long. This was done right.
An excellent breakdown of the older generation of muscle cars. Good stuff.
Glad you liked it! Thanks!
The first and second generations Formula S, Commando Barracudas and Dart GTs!!!
Very informative video!! Keep em coming. Good photographs. Information: Excellant. Pleasant voice!
Thank you! Will do! I tell him he has a great face for radio - LOL!
I really enjoyed this video! I love the 428 CJ Torino fastbacks. They were the most beautiful car ever! And the 69 Mustang 428CJ. I have a friend who ran one in C/SA in NHRA and he could stand it up 2 feet out of the hole and ride the wheelie almost 60 ft. That 428CJ C6 was a badass car!
Thanks so much! Keep watching!
Glad you enjoyed it! We love those Torinos too! Keep watching!
My first car was 67 gt 500 428 cj dual quad got it in 76 one of the most beautiful American cars ever made wish i still had it it have dreams about it
Had 1 in 72 as hs senior
When your "New" 67 hit the dealer, before taking delivery, you could get the " dealer installed" 427!
WOW! Cool!

My '66GTO Tri-Power that I purchased in Dec. '65 had to be the best of the many new cars I bought in the last 65years !!
They are fantastic cars! Hope you still have it and keep watching our features!
That was fantastic, right on the money for the era, IMHO. Well shot and presented, have to say, favourite GTO, 1968, vedero green, hidden headlights.
Thanks so much Paul! Hope you are now a subscriber and keep watching! Good choice on the 68 GTO!
In my opinion: the 1966 Chevelle, the1966 Chevy Nova, 1969 Mustang Mach 1, 1969 Dodge Chargers and the AMX.
My favorite GTO was in the last photo of your video… that gorgeous blue, black vinyl top with the honeycomb grill. Born in ‘54 my first post-graduation purchase was a ‘67 Cougar XR7, lime green, vinyl top, white letter tires, black interior with center console… my late mother always said it was her favorite of all my cars through the years.
Thanks and keep watching! Glad you enjoyed it and shared your memory.
Owned a 1969 GTO. Loved it and still my favorite.
Binge watching, love them all
Thanks for watching and we've more to binge on!
There is no mention of the Buick GS.
Stay tuned for more coming down the road. Too many great ones to include in one video. Thanks for watching!
Because that was an ugly peice of shit.
This was absolutely the best photography of the best muscle cars ever produced. One of my hobbies is drawing. Particularly muscle cars of the 60s and 70s. I might add the summer when I was 17 going on 18 I was fortunate enough to purchase a 1969 Mustang from a young couple expecting a baby. How much fun could a guy have than to be 18 working at a gas station, and driving a 69 Mustang with a 428 CJ 4 spd. The previous owner only checked off the 428 shaker ram air, 4 spd, front disc brakes, I’m not sure what the color was called, but I called it Bullet Green, and the stylish steel wheels. Other than the CJ Ram air the car looked like the bare bones entry level 6 banger. Getting back to your video. Thank you for putting together the nicest cars ever. I don’t know what to draw first!
Wow - thanks so much! We appreciate you watching and commenting. Hope you've subscribed - there is a lot to draw here! Keep watching!
Out of all the cars I've had, the one I wish I still had is a '67 Cougar that I put a built 351C w/top loader and a 9" w/disks out of a '79 Versailles in!
I'll bet you do! Sounds like a great ride! Thanks!
My first car was a 79 Versailles in teal green!
@@jaysrandomnesschannel The Versailles I got the rear-end out of was totaled, but I've had 2 Granada's that were both good cars.
Great watch..... Really liked the way you covered the 65 GT350 so well "lol lol."
Funny thing about the 69 Mustangs that most people don't notice is that it was a single year body with 4 headlights, in 70 Mustang went back to two headlights. It took ten years before mustang would again have four headlights (1979.)
The list of cars was well picked, I did miss the 1970 AMC Rebel Machine, it would have gone great with the AMX and S/C Rambler -- we called it the AMC Triple Threat.
Knew you'd love that chapter! Thanks Mike!!
I also always liked the Vista Cruiser Wagons...... Again, great picks.....@@IfThisCarCouldTalk
I looked at a 68' Charger right out of HS in the 70s. I passed on it because it was a non performance 383 with single exhaust grocery getter. Ended up getting a 69 RoadRunner with the performance 383, the power was like night and day even the the HP on paper were not that far off...they lied.
Most people forget that the '70 Challenger and Cuda debuted in fall of '69. Maybe a mention? I think the late 60s Dodge Darts and Plymouth Barracuda's were also 2 of the fastest cars out there. Especially on the drag strips.
My dad had a comet with that angry little 289 and top loader
I actually would pick the Vista Cruiser slightly lowered. I would make a hurst clone in black and gold. That will be truly unique!
Thank you! I also believe this was the period of greatest assortment of beautiful contemporary styling and performance in the history of the U.S. auto industry, though I would include 1970. That year saw the magnificent new 'Cuda and Challenger introduction, my favorite version for the '68 Charger body style, the nicest iteration of the Torino GT/Cyclone when featuring hidden headlights, and the AMC Rebel Machine. You may have also included a look at the Mercury Marauder X-100 with the 429, and the '69 Chevy [Impala] SS 427.
My beautiful cousin got a '67 GTO convertible for her graduation. Blue, with white interior & top, it had every comfort/convenience option, and I just loved it. That, and the '68/'69 GTOs with hideaway headlights are my favorite GTOs.
Please don't forget the last of the corvette 327 fuley motors at 375 hp, super cool, I know had one.
I mean the 350 high rise stroker. Rob. Goodan. And I got to ride with him and his brother Steve. Thanks for letting me hang out with you guys.
Goodban. From Walton Nebraska and his dad was a good man working for Dobson brothers.Brothers
When you get a couple of real Hot rods. . If it wasn't a 396 Chevelle SS. Buy sister. Then there are the guys wanting to add nitrios oxide. . But then goes stalk.😅
Goodband from Walton Nebraska had one of the hottest 70 Camaro s. For the money. We were not rich back then.😮 mm
My friends brother had a 66 Fairlane GT 4 speed he bought in HS in the early 70s. He upped his cam and did so more performance work. You could hear him coming halfway down the street even at idle.
I never cared much for the Chevelle until the 66' new body style.
Likewise & 68 got even better
can't believe I stayed either for such a long one, but it was worth it!
Glad you did and so happy you enjoyed it!
Those days were 50 years ago guys! A lifetime. I was an officer in the Marine Corps. We'd drive to the dealership and buy new Porche 911s. They cost $8,000 and we could afford one. I, however, bought a Volvo....yeah, I know.
Cars of that era like houses and clothing followed classical design principles set out by Romans 2000 years ago. It is the reason why 1950s, 60s and 70s cars look proportional no matter how big or small they were.
You said it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
To me cars built between 1955 thru 1969 seemed to have a more personal touch, not like the cookie cutter cars of todays models.
It is NICE to dream of going back in time (if they ever built a time machine!!) to buy a FULLY loaded Super Bee or Charger FULLY loaded!!!

Although the 427 engine was not available in the 1967 Ford Fairlane GT, it was available in the standard Fairlane and the Fairlane 500XL. The W-code Fairlane came with a single four barrel carburetor while the R-code Fairlane came with two four barrel carburetors.
Yep! Thanks for watching and commenting! Keep watching!
The slide auto was really hot too
A very interesting video featuring lots of great 1960s American cars. I was surprised to see a British Ford Anglia 105E on the front lot of the John Matthews dealership in the first picture shown in your video. I didn't know they were sold in the US.
Glad you enjoyed it, and you have a good eye - we missed that!
Yes, I spotted the 105E also, later Escorts and Capris were sold, Canada got many of Ford's English cars also.
Got my license in a 65 fastback back in 82 I never owned a true muscle car but fortunately I drove many of dad’s cars I had a older sister who always had stylish rides and she had a couple true muscle cars like 69 judge ! 77 TA 69 vetted to name a few she did however sell me my favorite car A 78 280/z

Now I don't remember the first time I saw a AMX/Javelin but I do remember having a model car version of it you could either build it the stock or have it blown all out with the blower sitting on top with it on the big Meat tires and the headers and all that good stuff and that's the way I put mine together I love that car
I really liked the 68 full size Plymouth Fury models and the 65-66 Ford Full sized wagons and the 65-66 Falcon Futura Wagons.
Great taste in cars! Thanks!
My favorite station wagons were the tri-5 Chevy Nomads. G.M.blew it when it was discontinued.
The 69 mercury cougar is my favorite A i hope that i could afford one one day!!
Love all of the cars, especially the #moparornocars!!! Thanks!!
I looked at a 66 T-Bird with a 428 in the mid 70s. Was about to buy it then the seller backed out of the deal. Sweet looking car.
I enjoyed this but I have to correct an assertion posited in this video. The Mustang was not the best selling car in America in 1965. That honor goes to the Chevrolet Impala, which was not only the best selling car in America that year, but it also recorded the single highest volume sales year for any nameplate in any year with over a million units sold. It’s worth noting that those impressive sales figures were achieved in a 12-month sales year while Mustang sales were just under 700,000 (also wildly successful) with both 1964.5 and 1965 added together.

69 eliminator r code is the most beautiful car ever built

Had a 69 Cougar. standard 351 W engine was still a mover. I did think they were some of the best looking cars of the day. And don't forget the "hide away" headlights & turn signals that ran across the back pointing to the direction the car was taking. . From the middle to the outside. Would lo0ve to see one now days( consentual)?
Same as my brother's! His was dark green metallic, black interior.
@@johnfranklin5277Mine was blue ( twice) had it painted Silver/Blue. Blue interior. I had an 8-track player installed behind the Cougar plaque right in center of dash but I kept the plaque in the car.
Sounds perfect. Do you still have it?
@@johnfranklin5277 No, but I still wish I did.I was young & stupid. Sold it to a buddy at work. Cougar's get as bad rap being the Cousin of the Mustang. Back in the days of an 8-track player. I'm a car guy & I miss that 1. I bought a van & that's all of those days, they were more useful than a car.

66 Chevell SS beautiful
And you blew past the Buick Gran Sport ? Amazing the sleeper that surprised more than one gear head that thought they had the hottest car on the road .
You'll be happy to know that we're working on a special edition feature of the Buick Gran Sport so keep watching! Thanks!
AMX was a beautiful car
Good summary but one very sad omission is the '65 Buick Riviera GS. With it's clam shell hide away headlights, 425 (Wildcat 340hp/465 ft-lb!!!) Nailhead engine, first year of the Grand Sport, it's a classic and one of my favorites.
A great choice and one we'll definitely include in a follow up feature down the road. We love those Rivieras too! Glad you enjoyed it though and thanks for watching! Wish we could have done a top 50 list! What do you think about us doing a Buick only feature? There was a lot going on with Buick then!
Wildcat,,, who made it, mercuty? And,, never saw ya mention the Pontiac Grandprix
Or the 65 ford falcon 2 door station wagon. Rare one as well. Came with a pony 289.
Great list, can't fault it. 1 thing of mention was that Plymouth saw what happened with the GTO and wanted to up the ante with the largest Mopar mill they had, the 440, as std equipment instead of the 383 in a stripped down B car. Thus the GTX was born. Unfortunately executives decided to up market this car to the high priced segment in 67. It never sold well throughout its lifespan. Fun fact, ads of 67 and 68 called this car 'The Boss' but never patented or trademarked the phrase. Ford caught it for 69 and has used it for many years now. OOpppss.
Thanks for watching Adam and for making such a great comment full of info! Hope you've subscribed and keep watching!
69 El Camino SS and 68 and 69 Nova SS
Even tho there are several 60s era cars I love along with the early 70s being a gen Xer I love some of the malaise era cars I love their boxy style long hoods short trunks and plush interior, they are condemned by many for their pathetic power output levels even big block cars BUT being a gear head these cars can be brought to muscle car performance and then some very easily and most of us can't leave anything alone so they would be built up regardless of their original output. My idea of a cool car would be a mid 70s 2 door LTD or a mid 70s gran prix both with the usual healthy engine fat tires and nice sounding exhaust, I just love that crazy long front end and the 4 rectangle headlights and big grill. The 2 door dodge diplomats and lebaron are nice looking cars too imo. I'd say it's just because of the fond memories from my childhood, that's what people drove. A funny thing was in this day n age a 10 to 15 year car being in good condition is very common but back when I was a kid a mid 80s car seemed pretty nice but even mid to early 70s cars especially late 60 s cars were pretty cashed out and most were beat up primer bombers that mostly young people drove. I bought my 82 GMC k1500 in 94ish and by then it had been partially repainted the interior seemed aged, exhaust had been changed grill had the directionals in the grill ones in bumper were non functional, had maroon fur on door panels, lift kit and it even had a little bit of rust repairs! A 12 year old truck!! And it had been fairly well taken care of just driven. It was pretty but well used and modified. Most 2012 trucks aren't that kind of condition, most of the ones up here in the north are really rusty but the rest seem pretty original and in good shape and really nice in the south.
Thanks so much for watching and the nice comment! Keep watching!
Ford Maverick. Didnt do so well in sales but it was there than as well
Great content, thanks for prepping and presenting. I think a car that you could have included that would fit the style and power from this era would have been the Ford Thunderbird. It had one of its most iconic designs in the 1967-69 period.
Not really, it was bigger.
Great point! It's tough to include everything so...do I see another list coming in the new year?! Thanks for the compliment and glad you enjoyed it!
