Title: would you buy a 70's muscle car or something along those lines?
Post by: Royalty on October 08, 2006, 07:56:01 AM

Just curious. I like they way those cars look but I know the gas mileage tends to be horrible

late 60's or early 70's muscle cars are awesome.  Been thinking about buying a 67 Camero Black with white racing stipes.

Ain't a Camero but the same thing.  I loved this car.  Everyone would acknowledge it.  Old people and kids loved it.  It was so fun to drive

i had a 78' dodge aspen when i was 18. does that classify as a "muscle car."?  i didn't have much muscle myself then, but i thought my car did!  ;D

i currently have several very fast newer cars that real racers have offered a lot of money for but i have also been rebuilding a 1966 427 ac cobra for the last four years and even though its nowhere near done it still draws way more attention from anyone who doesn't know cars and since girls know nothing about cars and you seem lonely i highly recommend getting a classic ;)

I own a 61 ford unibody pickup truck... It's pretty sweet, still in the process of being rebuilt but when i toke her out before i pulled the engine everybody stared... Old guys would walk up to me and ask if it was an origanal unibody, not very many other people knew. But that truck is my baby, when i get done and have my blower installed and have street legal slicks on the bitch it will get alot more looks.... Next project is gonna be a cutlas or possibly a 64 nova...

I would love a 67-69 First gen, or a 1970 Challenger/Cuda.  A lot of folks are resto modding these cars, replacing the leafs with four links, dropping in big Baer or Brembo brakes, and putting in tremec T56 six speeds to improve mileage.  Vinatage air makes air units for most of these cars, and forged rims and tires to round out the mix.
