Coronet 500 in the Mylie Cyrus video "Party in the USA"

possibly only in the video because the trunk is so huge they could pretend that they used it to smuggle some teens into the drive in

the first 1/2 of the video uses a lot of cool cars from the late 60's and early 70's.

perhaps the finest 100% unrestored exterior and interior Shelby Mustang GT 500 existing. (it was kept in climate controlled storage from '75 - '05)

One of the most coveted prizes a Shelby can collect is the Chairman’s Award, given to a select number of original, unrestored vehicles at the annual SAAC Convention. This 1969 Shelby GT500 was a hands-down winner in 2006 at SAAC 31, taking the prize after thirty-five years of careful storage in a dry, heated garage. Prior to that, it had been a summer car for its second owner, who purchased it from its first owner in June 1970 at 6,000 miles, just months into its life. It was retired in 1975, never to see the light of day until 2005.

Now showing approximately 49,000 miles, the car is still entirely original except for tires and exhaust, some new belts and hoses and a replacement smog system. The Deluxe Décor interior is virtually flawless, as if it has never been occupied, and all the original inspection stickers and grease-pencil markings are intact. The recipient of a sympathetic detailing by Colin Comer, the car is uniquely finished in its original Pastel Grey paint with Black interior and Red seat and carpet inserts, an unusual and attractive combination.

Described by Comer as “absolutely the finest unrestored, 100% original paint and interior 1969 GT-500 you will find”, there is no disputing its qualification as a collector’s dream, especially taking into account its fully documented history in the hands of a single caring owner over a thirty-five year period. There is simply no other GT500 like it.

Medford's goofy Dean Higgens drove a beaut of a Model A

Kurt Russel who played the character Dexter Rily in at least 3 movies, but behind him, look at the cars on the backlot... a Dart, Barracuda, and Mustang

The Hotchkis Booth at SEMA, check out the cool set of cars from Bullitt! With a backdrop screen of a San Francisco street down a hill

pure cool on the hoof, but what's it built for?

not sure what to make of the rims... except they look like strong rims meant for racing with corners or circles... but the intake tubes make me think drag racing- and the oversize tire cutouts? huh.. lots of tire travel expected

Shooter probably has the answer:

I grew up around dirt track stock car racing.....and (except for the exposed injector stacks) this looks just like what I watched race in the mid-late 70's. Fiberglass bodies began showing up in the Late 70's and were on all competitive cars by 1980.
So, my guess would be either asphalt stock car racing or Pikes Peak Hill Climb.

color and a wing make a big difference in the attractiveness of a car, if I'm right, you;ll spend more time looking at the yellow one

I've never seen or heard of a Boss Shinoda Mustang before... good looking hood and lettering

5th annual Surf City Garage car show

the above station wagon I've posted before, but the 50's collection that it carries still stuns me

above, a new license plate painted like a 60's in colors, but it doesn't have the same format as a 60's California plate, 3 letters and then 3 numbers
