Default Looks of Muscle Cars - Back in the Day

While I was fascinated by the looks of the Lambo Countach, Ford Pantera, Stainless Steel Delorean, and of course the Bricklin as exotics "back in the day".

There was no car so "Bad to the Bone" as the brothers of '70 Dodge Challenger and "70 Plymouth Barracuda. Their looks are timeless. They gave the impression
that if you drove that car you were up to no good but you can't catch me if you tried attitude.

For me these cars exceed the looks of the:

'74 Pontiac TransAm - not bad looking though

'69 Pontica GTO - The car Sheryl Crow had rebuilt for Lance Armstrong on TV ala "Overhaulin". Of course they are now broke up....he is an idiot.

'70 Plymouth Superbird- just too bulky of a car.

'68 Oldsmobile 442 - a gentlemen's muscle car

'69 Chevelle - my neighbor had one it was a fast car

'69 Camaro - my wife had a '75 and it really could take the corners

'69 Mustang Boss 429- what a heritage

'66 Shelby GT350 Mustang and GT500 - named because it weight 500 lbs more than the GT350 both a great cars

'64 Ford Fairlane - a boat anchor

'70 Mercury Cougar Eliminator - Well it kinda looks like a Cougar. Wasn't that Farrah Fawcett's car.

'69 Road Runner - not bad

'69 Charger - Wasn't it trying to catch a Mustang in Bullitt.

'68 Nova - My girlfriend had a Charger.....but I am not with her any more...enough said.

'68 AMC Javelin - I did kind of liked the looks when I was younger

'61 and '68 Impala SS - Fast boat anchor

'69 Mercury Maurder - not too popular

'69 Ford Torino - not bad

'Plymouth Duster - Fastest muscle car I was in at 136 MPH on the Houston 610 loop.

While I am sure it didn't include some of your favorites, what I am trying to convey is that I have looked at them all and the 'Cuda and Challlenger are "Bad to the Bone" timeless and look awesome.
