The term 'muscle car' is always going to be subjective, off the showroom street legal from the factory. You might call it Muscle Factory cars.
Call it what you like, glad to see the boys in Detroit are finding ways to keep the spirit going...The term 'muscle car' is always going to be subjective, off the showroom street legal from the factory. You might call it Muscle Factory cars.
My 63 has been a race car since it was built, only 7,000 miles on it, 1/4 mile at a time.. It's legal to drive on the street and I do on occasion.If it’s not legal to drive on the street, it’s a race car.
I think if you use the purist since that started in the mid 60s? It's the cam. If the cam is a mechanical lift that needed manual adjustments? It's race. Hydrologic? Street. Now of course there are big Grey areas. But that seemed to be the target of discussions that targeted motors like the race hemi, Ford cammer motor. From competition in stock classes. Not officially the line. But certainly had to be a consideration?See the term thrown around a lot right? Gonna be alot of different opinions I know. Thought it would be interesting to hear them. Another member brought up the question is it street car or race car driven on street? Got me to thinking and that's not always a good thing. Where does a guy draw the line? Maybe it's just what your willing to put up with. Thoughts?
See post #115.So why disagree 33imp?
