Muscle Car Thread

BWSSR and I partnered up and built this 66 Chevelle SS... I got it as a parts car, mostly in boxes and missing the original 396 and 4-speed. Minor upgrades included a 468 roller, T-400, 4.10 gears, and 29.5x10.5's. She was heavy little girl @ 3650, but she was never afraid to wake up the neighbors or stand up and be counted.

You can buy a Superbird that the EPA used to run.

I bet that car brings 150k plus at Barrett Jackson.

My neighbor has every mustang from 65 to 72 bone stock, along with a few Chevys just sitting in tall grass behind his house, he said they all ran when he parked them a long time ago. He said he is going to do something with them one day but he isn't. He won't get rid of them either.

I can't believe that someone bought it from the gov't for $500.

That was in the 70's when all muscle cars were cheap. a lot could be brought for under $1500.It was not until the late 80's when those prices started to go up.

This is our project now. This is my fathers 69 short wheel base Chevy Pickup. I consider this a muscle truck. He has given it to my son Aaron for his first vehicle. Aaron is currently 14 and we are starting the work to get it the way he wants it (within reason). My ol man had a 454 in this for many many years and used it to pull his race car, but pulled it and sold it about ten years ago and dumped in a weak little 305 crate motor for fuel costs savings. It needs to go back to its glory days!!! SO......I picked up this 454 last week for a song (119k miles on it, complete, and only paid $115) We are rebuilding the engine now. Aaron spent the summer rebuilding a disc brake front end off of a mid 80's truck to put under it. We went to a swap meet and bought a new windshield, all the weatherstrip, and a gas tank from a blazer to move it out of the cab.

P.S. I need a set of good oval port closed chamber cylinder heads. a set of 215's would be ideal. Got any????

i enjoyed looking at all these fine cars.
I don't have any pics but my first car was a 69 Z/28 camaro. It was numbers matching with the 302 motor.
I'll never forget that car.

All of these killer rides make me want to go back to my roots and find my first vehicle. A '51 Ford pickup. I am seriously thinking about finding myself an old truck to rebuild.

Drool. 69Z's were awesome. I had a 68 in college (350 4spd). I think about it often. This truck project is helping with the itch relief.

Nice! Is that a 70-71 duster in the back? And is it for sale?

Yes sir that's what it is but its NOT for sale. Dad has always done lots for us over the years so we found that for him a few years back. He had one like it just after high school except his old one was a 4 speed.
