yeah the cruisers weren’t tat great- like you say, styling was fine- but not a great car- If they came out with like a 60’s Mustang, or SS, or roadrunner look or goat or something- with a decent engine- doesn’t have to be quite as fast as the old powerhouses- i bet they’d sell- as long aS they aren’t seriously underpowered-

Yep. They’ll never really be able to clone the old muscle cars like that with all the safety, emissions, and enviro regs they’ve suffocated the industry with now. I mean, when was the last time an auto manufacturer built a car that had a posi rear and could bark the tires from a dead stop at a red light? A ‘Vette, maybe? I think nowadays, they even have governors on the clutch to prevent you from doing that. Anything that they’d build that could do that would have a ticket on it that would look like your average mortgage payment.
