Mopar

Every once in a while, we stumble upon a Lot Shots feature in which the story behind the car is way more interesting than the car itself. Not saying a Plymouth Trail Duster isn’t interesting—far from it, actually. The Trail Duster is the rare Plymouth twin of the much-more-common Dodge Ramcharger—a full-size SUV Ma Mopar

Contrary to popular belief, the Ford Mustang was not the first pony car. Nope, Plymouth actually launched the sporty affordable coupe segment with it’s Barracuda—a whole two weeks before Ford started prancing around with the Mustang in 1964. But while the Valiant-derived Barracuda won on the calendar, the Mustang won in the showroom, trouncing the

Before there was the minivan, SUV, or crossover, there was the station wagon—the preferred family hauler for trips to grandma’s house and summer vacations. And if you had to picture the archetypal station wagon, what would you think of? Luggage rack? Pea-green paint with faux wood paneling? Rear-facing seats? Well, this lovely 1973 Plymouth Satellite

When Dodge initially teased the Challenger SRT Demon, it was poised to be the world’s fastest, most powerful production muscle car. With 800+ horsepower, a 9.65-second 1/4-mile ET, and the largest hood scoop ever attached to a production vehicle, Dodge made sure it delivered. (You can read more incredible Demon facts here.) But now, the

Cars from the 1970s are often dismissed in favor of their 1960s-era brethren. And that’s a cryin’ shame, because these “malaise era” vehicles are actually a lot of fun. They’re easy to work on, can be modded for more power, and (in many cases) offer better handling and ride quality out-of-the-box than cars built before the

We’re sending a car into space. And not just any car.

You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers—the Summit Racing tech department tackles your automotive-related conundrums. This week, we’re helping a reader troubleshoot a misfiring Mopar 440 in a ’69 Dodge Charger. Q: I have a 1969 Dodge Charger that is giving me fits.

A parking lot is a parking lot—unless it’s the Summit Racing parking lot. On any given day or time, the lot outside a Summit Racing store can turn into an impromptu mini car show, depending on who’s stopped by the store. On Wednesday, we often share a notable parking lot find—another benefit of being powered by

“Holy Schnikes!” The entire staff at OnAllCylinders erupted in that famous line from 1995’s seminal film “Tommy Boy” when today’s Lot Shot rolled onto our pavement. For those unfamiliar with the cinematic masterpiece, the movie stars Chris Farley, David Spade, and a 1967 Plymouth GTX. Unlike the Tommy Boy GTX however, this one is in
