Those pics I posted were from New England drag way and the best he could manage was a 12.2 in the 1/4 and those cars are mid 11 cars bone stock but his driving abilities left to be desired his buddy was there with a band spanking new Shelby Cobra GT500 and he was running 12.7s lol two guys with more money than skill.

I'm not big into "classic" cars because I'm too much into technology.  If you can find me a 1970's muscle car with navigation, heads-up display, bluetooth, active steering, active headlights, automatic climate control, dynamic stability control, heated and ventilated seats with memory settings, park-distance control, lane-departure warning, and an MP3 player, I'll consider it!

What do you drive now Goat?

Parker, agreed!   My dad has two he is about to restore!  Both are white with red interior....

My grand dad has a 65 sitting around in woods. And my uncle had a 67 SS that originally my grandpa's as well. He said he was saving it for me, but sold it :'(. It was black...Man I remember hearing that engine gurgle while going uphills when I was younger. I'm thinking of tracking down the people who it was sold to. I want it back...my deceased grandpa would want it that way :)

65 and 66 were the same body style.  They changed slightly in 67!  My step dad used to have a 65 ss!

Yeah, you know what really funny. Have you ever watched the the show "Supernatural" where they are in a 4 door Imp? Well, on my grandpa's property, they have a Biscayne that looks the same as the Imp, in fact it was just a cheaper model. I think it would be cool to have that car done up in black like the "Supernatural" car.

I don't know about some of you, but I am having one helluva time trying to decide between these two when these babies hit the street.  I am a GM guy through and through, but that damn Challenger......oh GAWD!

2009 seems like a lifetime away :'(. Hopefully, time (and HP) will not have passed them by. Look at the Mustang, now the Lexus IS350 is making more HP with a V6, than a base model v8 GT, and posting better 0-60 times as well. As well as the Infiniti G37 and the 335i
