1969 Pontiac Firebird 1:24 Maisto ProRodz

The Pontiac Firebird is an American automobile built and produced by Pontiac from the 1967 to 2002 model years. Designed as a pony car to compete with the Ford Mustang, it was introduced on February 23, 1967, five months after GM's Chevrolet division's platform-sharing Camaro. This also coincided with the release of the 1967 Mercury Cougar, Ford's upscale, platform-sharing version of the Mustang. The name "Firebird" was also previously used by GM for the General Motors Firebird in the 1950s and early 1960s concept cars.

The name "Firebird", previously used by GM for the General Motors Firebird in the 1950s and early 1960s concept cars, symbolizes youth, power, and beauty. All of these are shared by the well-known supernatural phoenix featured in various regional narratives. However, paralleling the name Pontiac, in this Native American iteration, the name "Firebird" additionally symbolizes both destruction and terror, two fitting descriptors for an American muscle car.

The first generation Firebird had characteristic Coke bottle styling shared with its cousin, the Chevrolet Camaro. Announcing a Pontiac styling trend, the Firebird's bumpers were integrated into the design of the front end, giving it a more streamlined look than the Camaro. The Firebird's rear "slit" taillights were inspired by the 1966–1967 Pontiac GTO and Pontiac Grand Prix. Both a two-door hardtop and a convertible were offered through the 1969 model year. Originally, the car was a "consolation prize" for Pontiac, which had desired to produce a two-seat sports car based on its original Banshee concept car. However, GM feared this would cut into Chevrolet Corvette sales, and gave Pontiac a piece of the "pony car" market by sharing the F-body platform with Chevrolet. The listed retail price before options for the coupe was $2,666 ($23,398 in 2022 dollars) and the convertible was $2,903 ($27,392 in 2022 dollars).

1969 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Jada 1:24

El Chevrolet Chevelle fue un automóvil deportivo de tamaño medio producido por la división Chevrolet del fabricante estadounidense General Motors en tres generaciones desde 1964 hasta 1977. Parte de la plataforma A, el Chevelle fue una de las marcas de mayor éxito de Chevrolet. Las carrocerías incluyen Coupés, sedanes, descapotables, familiares y pickup El Camino. Versiones Super Sport se produjeron hasta el año modelo 1973; y modelos algunas de 1973 hasta 1976.

Después de una ausencia de tres años, El Camino fue reintroducido como parte de la nueva línea de Chevelle. El Chevelle también proporcionó la plataforma para el Monte Carlo introducido en 1970. El Malibu, el modelo superior de la línea hasta 1972, sustituyó la marca Chevelle de los rediseñados, más compactos modelos de 1978.

El Chevelle fue presentado el 26 de septiembre de 1963 como un vehículo de tamaño medio de la flota de Chevrolet. Era, básicamente, un modelo entre el compacto Chevy II/Nova y el más grande Impala. El Chevelle fue pensado para competir con el Ford Fairlane y a devolver a la alineación de Chevrolet un modelo similar en tamaño y concepto de los modelos más populares desde 1955 hasta 1957.

El Chevelle fue construido sobre una nueva plataforma «A» y tenía una distancia entre ejes de 112 plg (284,5 centímetros). La suspensión fue de doble brazo oscilante de longitud desigual en la parte delantera y una suspensión trasera de eje rígido con 4 brazos. El modelo base era la serie 300, mientras que el Malibu SS fue el modelo más alto de la línea.

El Chevelle fue producido desde 1964 hasta 1977. En 1978 se convirtió en el Malibu, que una vez había sido una opción de molduras y acabados para el Chevelle. Durante la fase de prototipo en desarrollo, llevó el emblema Nova. Cuando fue concebido, los diseñadores de Chevrolet esperaban que el Chevelle la traería de vuelta el entusiasmo que los propietarios de Chevy tenían para los modelos de 1955 a 1957 Bel Air.

Cupés dos puertas sin parantes (hardtops) y descapotables, sedanes de cuatro puertas, familiares cuatro puertas y pickup (El Camino) se ofrecen durante toda la tirada. De acuerdo con otras series de Chevrolet, los hardtops de dos puertas fueron llamados Sport Coupes (cupés deportivos). Hardtops de cuatro puertas apodados Sport Sedans (sedanes deportivos), estaban disponibles desde 1966 hasta 1972. Una familiar de dos puertas estaba disponible en 1964 y 1965 en la serie base 300.

Varias camionetas tipo familiar fueron vendidos con emblemas exclusivos: Greenbrier, Concours y Concours Estate. Seis cilindros y V8s fueron ofrecidos a todos los niveles. El Chevelle fue la base para el Beaumont, un modelo re-ornamentado vendido solamente en Canadá por los concesionarios Pontiac hasta 1969.

1969 Dodge Charger General Lee The Dukes Of Hazzard 1:25

The General Lee (sometimes referred to as simply "the General") is an orange 1969 Dodge Charger driven in the television series The Dukes of Hazzard by the characters the Duke boys, Bo and Luke, along with cousins Coy and Vance (in season 5). It is known for its signature horn, its police chases, stunts—especially its long jumps—and for having its doors welded shut, leaving the Dukes to climb in and out through the windows. The car appears in every episode but one ("Mary Kaye's Baby"). The car's name is a reference to Robert E. Lee, general of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War. It bears a Confederate battle flag on its roof, and also has a horn which plays the first 12 notes of the song "Dixie".

The idea for the General Lee was developed from the bootlegger Jerry Rushing's car, which was named for Lee's favorite horse, Traveller. Traveller was also the name of the car in Moonrunners, the 1975 movie precursor to The Dukes of Hazzard.

Although the estimated number of General Lees used varies from different sources, according to former cast member Ben Jones ("Cooter" in the show), as well as builders involved with the show, 325 General Lees were used to film the series. Others claim about 255 were used in the series. Approximately 17 originals still exist, although in various states of repair. On average, more than one General Lee was used up per show. When filming a jump, anywhere from 500 to 1,000 pounds (230 to 450 kg) of sand bags or concrete ballast was placed in the trunk to prevent the car from nosing over. Later in the series the mechanics would raise the front end of the car to keep it from scraping against the ramp causing it to lose speed, thereby providing a cushion for the driver upon landing. Stunt drivers report enjoying the flights but hating the landings. Despite the ballast, the landing altitude of the car was somewhat unpredictable, resulting in moderate to extremely violent forces, depending on how it landed. On many of the jumps the cars bent upon impact. All cars used in large jumps were immediately retired due to structural damage.
