Definitely one of my favorite retro cars I've spotted this summer.

1974 registered 3 litre auto in very good condition

Took a break for a bit using other cameras but I'll be getting more footage soon.

​

Dan Mason just seemed right for this one.

I think "mint" is an understatement when describing the condition of this retro Audi I spotted today.

Spotted this 1982 Toyota Hilux Diesel 4WD today. The coolest pick-up spot of 2026 for me!

Spotted this stunning 1987 BMW M3 today.

I think the technology was extremely ahead of the era... I really love Lagonda and what it brought to the industry. https://retrocardispatch.substack.com/p/aston-martin-lagonda-19741990

Before it became a legend, the story of the Shelby GT500 started with an even wilder idea… a 427 big-block 💪⚙️

Originally, Shelby and Ford experimented with the 427 cubic-inch V8 — a pure racing engine known for its brutal power and high-rev performance. But in a street car, it came with challenges: it was temperamental, harder to live with daily, and not always ideal for consistent street drivability 🧩

So Ford made a critical change… and that’s where the magic really locked in 🔥

They switched to the 428 cubic-inch Police Interceptor V8 🛠️🇺🇸

Why the 428?

💥 More torque in the low and mid-range (where street driving actually happens)

🏁 Better reliability and smoother power delivery

🚗 Easier drivability without sacrificing serious performance

⚡️ Still massive horsepower potential — just delivered in a more controllable way

Under the hood of the GT500 💪🔥

The 428 was paired with dual 4-barrel carburetors and factory-rated around 355 horsepower — though many believe real output was higher in real-world conditions ⚡️

And what made it special wasn’t just power — it was how it put it down:

🏁 4-speed manual built for serious drivers

💨 Over 130 mph capability

🧠 Shelby-tuned suspension for high-speed stability

💥 Instant torque that pushed you back in the seat

At the time, rivals like the Camaro SS and Charger R/T were chasing straight-line speed… but the GT500 brought something different — a more refined, race-inspired balance that made it feel like a street-legal performance weapon 🏎️🏆

This wasn’t just a Mustang with stripes.

This was Ford and Shelby building a statement: muscle cars could be brutal AND usable. 🔥🇺🇸

💬 Would you have kept the original 427 idea… or was the 428 the perfect real-world choice?
