  1. Olds

  2. 1969 corvette L88 was rated 430HP

    • But actually over 500hp

    • The HP was underrated back in the Muscle Car hayday! (for all!)

  3. My first car, ’72 Olds Cutlass S, 350ci, two barrel carb, body and rims matching bronze color with tan vinyl top. Great car, poor gas mileage and frequently burned points made it unreliable.!

  4. What a pile of crap post

  5. I want both

  6. I’ll take the Corvette

  7. 1970 was the last good year of the W-30 they went down hill with the low compression engine

13 Mustangs That Never Got the Green Light to Be Produced If you ever ask a person which #American car manufacturer he likes the most, one of the most common answers you will get would be Ford.

That's not bad, yet we got the MockE.

This is what the Mustang EV should have looked like.

Not me

I think the wagon Mustangs are super cool

Looks like a hearse

If its not a big block in a mustang..A FACTORY DRAG PAK mustang(etc.)...then mustang was PONY car...not a MUSCLE CAR? 🤣

I like it...

Not a fan. I feel it was a good decision to pass on this.

Ford has a history of making bad choices, I'm glad this is not just one more.

My first car 59 Pontiac Catalina 389 manual transmission my batmobile Fire engine red baby moons and it also had what I thought was a toaster oven they didn't have them back then it was a record player under my dash sitting on the bellhousing of course you couldn't use it when you were driving but it was great when you parked and blew up that 6x9 speaker in the dash

Wow, my Dad had a friend that had one just like it. The first Wide Track, I believe.
