View Full Version : favorite car from the "muscle car" era? Red 05-19-2001, 11:01 PM thats right, i am talking about the gas guzzling, torque monsters that used to roar down the streets of America. for me, it'd be a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T, 426 Hemi, 4 spd, Hemi Orange with a tan interior. thats right, i am a General Lee fan http://discussanything.com/Ubb/biggrin.gif what would you pick? [This message has been edited by red84pony (edited 05-19-2001).] Manu 05-21-2001, 12:34 PM Lol...Id prolly pick the stang. But that is partially out of ignorance, and partially cause I've fallen in love with them for years. ------------------ Manu Narayan 74Mav 05-22-2001, 01:33 AM I am ford thru and thru. I love all Mustangs, even the II's. However, my favorite muscle car is a Buick. The 1970 Buick Gran Sport with the factory Stage 1 package and dealer stage 2 & 3 packages were among the quickest car ever made. (for those who doubt, look up the battles between the Mopar and Buick crowds in Hot Rod back in the mid '80s for the quickest muscle car) That big 455 produced tons of torque. ------------------ Uh, what country is this?? Aphasia 05-23-2001, 02:02 AM 64 Pontiac GTO Coupe...for some reason, I just love that car. Gotta be some obnoxious color, though - avocado green or bright orange or something. ------------------ "I have no regrets.

CB93COBRA 06-15-2001, 03:42 PM I like the Hemi Cuda 70-72? shaker hood, for looks anyway, Mustangs are always cool too, Goats, Chevelles, Camaro (67-8) Firebirds (most any year) all very likable to me http://discussanything.com/Ubb/smile.gif Dest98 06-18-2001, 12:05 PM The Trans-Am edition Dodge Challenger, with the 340 6-pack.

Speed with style the staged Gs's / GSX's were awsome looking cars. The verts looked real nice (a little slower though). Turbostang 07-04-2001, 06:11 AM '71 HemiCuda (or Challenger) here for me. Love them E-bodies! ------------------ Artist formerly known as Reindeer Betty 07-05-2001, 05:54 PM '74 Chevelle SS Yeah baby! Shadowhawk 09-14-2001, 03:01 AM Have to agree with Turbostang... '71 Hemicuda all the way. Who cares if it only got 8 MPG on the freeway http://discussanything.com/Ubb/smile.gif After that, there'd be the Shelby Cobra, a '69 Camaro Coupe (Hopefully Yenko), and most Mustangs. No particular order of favorites there. All cool cars http://discussanything.com/Ubb/smile.gif |
