Good old American muscle is hard to beat, such as this 1971 Plymouth GTX featured on the latest episode of TESTED Muscle<\/em>, brought to you by American Collectors Insurance<\/a>. Some would say the Plymouth GTX was one of the last great classic muscle cars produced. Its sleek, muscular body and aggressive stance commands attention, and its performance matches the mean Mopar persona.<\/p>\n

The Plymouth GTX, also referred to as the \u201cgentlemen\u2019s hot rod,\u201d spanned five production model years, beginning in 1967 and ending in 1971. It competed with the likes of the second-generation Chevrolet Camaro, most notably the 1970 Z\/28 equipped with a 360-horsepower 350 cubic-inch LT-1 small-block, plus the underpowered 1970-1982 Pontiac Trans Am made famous by Smokey and the Bandit<\/em>, the 1971 AMC Javelin, the 1971-1973 \u201cbig horse\u201d Mustangs with an emphasis on the 1971 Super Cobra Jet 429 cubic-inch big-block equipped model, and let\u2019s not forget one of (if not the<\/em>) most potent performers of the decade, the Chevrolet Chevelle SS454.<\/p>\n

In the fifth episode of TESTED Muscle, Mike Musto takes the wheel of a sparsely optioned 1971 Plymouth GTX and shares his wealth of knowledge. For starters, Plymouth made less than 3,000 examples, making it rarer than a 2018 Dodge Demon. Under the hood is a 370 horsepower, 440 cubic-inch V8, arguably one of the greatest engines ever made. We recommend turning the sound up for this video:<\/p>\n
