A daughter has graduated, found a job and is thinking about a new car. Christmas is the giving season, so she hits up the old man with a bid for that cherry red Mustang with a racing stripe.
“Whoa there, cowgirl,” he says, “I’m willing to spring for a four-wheeler, but that Mustang won’t fit in this Santa’s sack. How about a Ford Focus instead? Not as sleek or fast, but it won’t drain the bank account.”
On the heels of this market shift, hot-rodders are taking once ludicrously priced muscle cars and building them in hugely unique ways. While there was still plenty of pristine and well cared for muscle cars, this year, SEMA played host to hundreds of modern interpretations that take the idea of a muscle car to new heights.
