"We saw a gap in the market," explains a spokesperson for Bellevue Tod LLC. "There's huge demand for classic American muscle, but finding truly exceptional examples can be a real headache. People want the fun of owning these cars without the hassle and risk of a bad purchase. That's where we come in." What is American Muscle? Before diving into what Bellevue Tod offers, let's talk muscle cars. Born in the mid-1960s and peaking in the early 1970s, these cars were all about power. American automakers like Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth, and Pontiac crammed massive V8 engines into relatively compact, stylish bodies. The goal? Straight-line speed and a seriously aggressive look. Think of the iconic Ford Mustang, the Chevrolet Camaro, the Dodge Charger, the Plymouth Barracuda, and the Pontiac GTO. These weren’t just transportation; they were statements. They represented a rebellious spirit, a celebration of freedom, and a raw, untamed energy. Bellevue Tod's Curated Collection: Bellevue Tod LLC isn't just accumulating cars randomly. They meticulously select vehicles based on several criteria: rarity, condition, originality, and historical significance. They specialize in finding and restoring – or preserving, depending on the car – these automotive treasures. Here's a peek at some of the types of muscle cars they currently offer or frequently source: Ford Mustang (1965-1973): From the original, groundbreaking 1965 fastback to the Boss 302 and Mach 1 models, Bellevue Tod understands the enduring appeal of the Mustang. They source everything from project cars needing full restoration to meticulously restored, concours-condition examples. “The Mustang is the quintessential American muscle car,” says a company expert. “Everyone knows it, everyone loves it, and there's a huge variation in models and price points, making it accessible to a wide range of collectors." Chevrolet Camaro (1967-1969): The Camaro was GM's answer to the Mustang, and the first-generation models are highly coveted. Bellevue Tod focuses on finding the rare and powerful variants, like the Z/28 and the SS 396. “The ’69 Camaro is arguably the peak of first-generation styling,” the spokesperson notes. “Finding a well-preserved or restored example is a real prize.” Dodge Charger (1968-1970): The Charger, with its distinctive coke-bottle shape and aggressive styling, is a true icon. Bellevue Tod specializes in finding the Hemi-powered Chargers – the ultimate expression of muscle car performance. “The Hemi Charger is a beast,” explains a company mechanic. “It’s a car that demands respect, and the prices reflect that.” Plymouth Barracuda (1970-1974): While often overshadowed by the Mustang and Camaro, the Barracuda, especially the ’70 and ’71 models, is a stunning example of 1970s muscle car design. Bellevue Tod is actively sourcing well-maintained and restored examples, including the rare Hemi versions. Pontiac GTO (1964-1974): Often credited with starting the muscle car craze, the GTO was a high-performance version of the Pontiac Tempest. Bellevue Tod focuses on finding the early models, known for their powerful engines and distinctive styling.
