Mine is a Chevrolet El Camino,it's a car,it's a truck,you can fix it.
I wouldn’t sneeze at having a Boxter!!
1967 Mustang Fastback with any eight cylinder engine souped up.
BoxSter :)
VERY COOL looking. Had to look it up.
I LOVE these threads when I get to see the rocking cars of the ‘60s and early ‘70s :)
That’s a ‘68. I had a ‘67 - guy who bought it from me painted it like that and put those wheels on it.
He had the 427 tripower (as I recall it was tripower) Shelby GT500KR. A 427 instead of 428. Both would have been just fine. Car looked brand new (in 1977).
Gave me the vapors. :)
I'm going for the 1970 Z-28 RS with the LT1 350, Muncie M22 rock crusher, and the 4.10:1 "411 positraction" read end. Blue with the white stripes.
An early ‘66 HP2 426-Hemi, 4-speed Plymouth Belvedere I pillar coupe preferably in all black paint. No stripes, just those tiny little “HP2” emblems on each fender. No fancy wheels, just those plain-jane, granny-style, Plymouth dog-dish hubcaps. Only thing giving this bad boy away would be that unique “bad to the bone” rumble of the big Hemi thru those sewer-sized exhaust pipes.....a sleeper car of it’s day. Yeah, that one would probably be pretty high on my list of all-time favorites. :)
While not really a muscle car it was in the spirit.
I had a ‘76 crew-cab dually with a 454 in it. Those trucks came stock with 4:56 rear ends.
Have a muscle car of the day pull up alongside at a stop. Stall check it and off at the light. It would beat most of them to 45-50MPH and a few of the newer smogged ones past that.
That old truck was quite the sleeper.
I agree but do like the 1970 GTO Judge and the Firebird as well. And what the heck, a quote from My Cousin Vinny about not just any Pontiac...
“No, there’s more! You see? When the left tire mark goes up on the curb and the right tire mark stays flat and even? Well, the ‘64 Skylark had a solid rear axle, so when the left tire would go up on the curb, the right tire would tilt out and ride along its edge. But that didn’t happen here. The tire mark stayed flat and even. This car had an independent rear suspension. Now, in the ‘60s, there were only two other cars made in America that had positraction, and independent rear suspension, and enough power to make these marks. One was the Corvette, which could never be confused with the Buick Skylark. The other had the same body length, height, width, weight, wheel base, and wheel track as the ‘64 Skylark, and that was the 1963 Pontiac Tempest.”
Arguably the MOST awesome Mustang ever...
Austin-Healy 3000.
Awesome
