  • Muscle Cars!

    Let's give the guns a rest and talk about real firepower!
    They're thin on the ground over here, but a passion of mine nontheless.
    And the big question is - Ford, Mopar or GM?

    Are you kidding me? No question:


    I'm car 91 and I was racing a 2010 modified Vette. I was spanking his ass until the end of the 1/4 when I ran out of top end.

          The 87 Monte Carlo SS is still a work in progress. Don't have good pics of mine but let me dig up one similar... OK, this one is virtually identical to mine. Mine has a rare gray interior instead of red, and full center console. Has a '69 350 4 bolt while the original 43K mile 305 HiPo resides in storage.

            I'm a Mopar guy but Ford and GM made some killer muscle cars.I like them all.
            I like cars that look all rusted up but pop the hood,look underneath and its all business.

              I am still in love with Third-Gen F-body GM's (GTA's and IROCS). I still have a 1990 GTA in the garage with 79K miles on it, but I might sell it because it is rarely driven.

              Mustangs look nice but I've never owned a Ford product.

                I liked my 09 Mustang just fine.
                V 6 with K&N cold air intake and 75 hp performance chip.
                Traction control made it handle really well.

                    I was always partial to GM as that is what I was mostly around. However, fast is fast no matter what brand it is. I love all 3 of the pony cars that are out now. Camaro= OK exterior/best interior, Challenger=Best Exterior/bland interior, Mustang= Good interior/good exterior.

                    Here are a few of the cars I have had worth mentioning:

                    73 Challenger with 340 4-speed. This car was cherry when dad won it in a poker game. It lasted 9 days before I flipped it on its top in a creek bed. Never give a 16 year old a car like that!

                    72 Olds Custlass 442. It was a 455 car stroked to I think 492 or 493 inches.

                    87 Buick GNX.

                    88 IROC with 383 stroker and Ford 9" rear.

                    88 Fiero GT with 3.4 liter and twin turbos

                    79 Z28. This wasn't a hot rod per se, but, my uncle bought it new in 79 and sold it to me in 95 with 28k on the odometer. Someone stole the whole car back in the early 80's just for the 8 track tape deck. -Lou

                        Back in the day, I had the following:

                        '69 Dodge Charger
                        '68 Dodge Charger
                        '70 Dodge Dart GT
                        '69 Plymouth GTX

                        I gotta find a pic of the '68 I have somewhere...

                          Back in the day I had a '71 Mach 1, a '73 Mach 1, and a '92 Mustang LX 5.0.
                          I consider the Monte Carlo SS a notch in history.
                          Not exactly a muscle car but a lot of potential.

                            Oh yeah, I had a LX5.0 also! 5 speed and very light.

                              Back in about '90 I had just married my first wife and we went car shopping. Ran across an '89 Mustang coupe in the back lot that nobody seemed to want. Turns out it was a one of a kind GT coupe. We got the car and had it about a year before we unfortunately parted ways in the divorce (the car, I was happy to be rid of the wife). Wish I had pics.
