2. Plymouth Barracuda

The Barracuda was introduced in 1964, but really only attracted a lot of notice when the 7.2 liter engine was equipped in the car. The more powerful version of this car was the Hemi-Cuda, which was equipped with a 7-liter hemi block and could go 0-60 in just a little over five and a half seconds. Very few were made – in fact, just a few hundred, and each model had unique color and trim. A cherry Barracuda can command up to two million dollars at auction.

1. Shelby GT500KR

The Shelby GT was made for just four years, between 1964 and 1968. The 1966 version is actually considered to be the best, with a V8 engine that delivered a full 360 horsepower. An original 289 roadster is worth more than $300,000.

The rarity of the 1966 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake has helped to drive it’s auction price up to an estimated value of $5.5 million dollars.
