The Chevy powered Cheetah is a less well known but really great looking car from the early 1960s. Built to compete with the AC Cobra, they produced less than a couple dozen before a factory fire destoyed the tooling. BTM LLC of Arizona has been authorized by Bill Thomas, original creator of the Cheetah, to build this continuation series.
A chrome moly chassis with a Chevy 350 for power and a curb weight of 1550 pounds promises superb performance, however, the car is not street legal but Cheetah Race Cars is ready to provide a track car that will bring a smile to your face.

I have always loved this vehicle. I had the HO car and beat everyone on the track. I hope that some day I’ll be able to afford the Cheetah Coupe. Time will only tell. I have various models and Hot Wheels of the Cheetah on my office desk. Often having some of the guys ask me; “What car is that?” I feel like slapping them. DUH!!! But I do explain the vehicle and its history. It’s nice to see these produced again. Hopefully, one day.
