From the mid-50s to the 70s, American street racers were the kings of cool, cruising boulevards and racing deserted runways. Muscle cars with sleek lines, custom paint jobs, and engines that left police cruisers in the dust were the emperors of the road—and their drivers raced for glory and the fastest girls. But crashes, the law, or love eventually sidelined most racers. Still, some of these legends have been passed down, with grandchildren now revving those engines at local dragstrips.
