AKA ‘Bullet Bird’, the ’62 THUNDERBIRD M-CODE SPORTS ROADSTER could be optioned with a single four-barrel 390/300 or tri-power 390/340 M-Code big blocks. If you were a Ford guy in 1962 and wanted to buy a new car to drag race or even dominate stoplight Gran Prix competition, the new M-Code Thunderbird would not have been your first choice. Compared with Ford’s traditional performance offerings, the tri-power T-Bird, especially in Sports Roadster trim, was too heavy and too expensive. ...

Late to the Ponycar Party, the AMC PONYCAR: 390 (SUPER) JAVELIN was a righteous competitor! With support from AMC’s manager of Performance Activities, Carl Chakmakian, and our friends at LAB Engineering, Motion Performance, and Pacers Automotive back in 1968, we transformed a stock 390 Javelin into a Super 390 Javelin. It turned out so well that I bought it! I had test-driven a 390 Javelin at a Press preview and really liked it. It wasn’t a rocketship for sure, but it had potential. Thanks t...
