Instead my midlife crisis cost us 2 airboats....can do a lot more with the airboats anyway... We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

My wife has a 1967 Mercury Cougar GT (big block) which was Motor Trends "Car of the Year" that year.

'65 Mustang - started the Pony Car revolution '66 GTO - Gas, Tires, Oil '70 Cuda '69 Mustang Boss 302 '67 Shelby 427 '70 Plymouth Superbird - just way cool '73 351 Mustang - smog killed performance, but like the body. Great car if desmogged and hot rodded. '73 Firebird - see '73 Mustang "The Democrat Party looks like Titanic survivors.

OP Seafire Campfire 'Bwana S Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 42,746 Southern Oregon USA	I have always been partial to the 1968-70 SS Chevelles... with the top end 396, or the LS 6 454 in the 70 Model year... especially love them, when someone has pulled the original engine and installed an LS 7 version of the 454... but hate to see it when they came thru with a bench seat and an automatic on the steering column... and then there is always the 67-69 Z 28s... along with the 64 to 67 Vettes, with a big block...the penical being the 67 with the 427 Tri Power....got a thing for 3 two barrels for some reason... as usual tho, Shrapnel shows why he is the Montana version of Chuck Norris as described by deFlave.... and Field Grades 57 Ford F100 is every bit as cool as many true muscle cars.... restored old trucks, especially in 4 x 4 guise are definitely 10 for 10 on the Cool Factor also... although ANY muscle car is definitely COOOOOL!, I prefer the Chevys during those years....

They still haven't solved that issue. ever see anyone actually fuel it with an after market fuel injection system? a fuel injected 426 Hemi...that ought to be an impressive performer... also read about some of those 426 crate motors several times, and those can really pump out the horses...

Great car, especially the GNX, of which only 547 were made. My last Hagerty monthly report had the GNX version from '87 at $40-$81K value. ($37K was msrp) Pontiac put the same engine in the '89 TA 20-year anniversary pace car.

Maybe go 69-70 Boss 302 in place of the GT 500, but only because I like cars that can turn too. Adds variety to the list...

fish head Campfire Ranger Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 17,289 I'm in Kalifornia	My top muscle cars ... 1) 1970 Hemi Cuda 2) 1970 Chevelle SS LS6 3) 427 Covette ... 1967 ? From there it's gets tough to put in order. I really like the tri power GTOs and a 1970 Camaro Z28 LT1 350 was a bad azz small block but I liked the looks of 69 Z28 better. The 1970 AAR 340 six pack Cuda was also wicked small block. One car that hasn't been metioned and just for the cool factor alone is a 1976 455 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am. It wasn't a go fast king but a T top in black with the gold firebird on the hood was very cool.
