Only good ol American muscle for me. 69 Camaro with a crate 350. Not the fastest in the world, but a real beauty to me anyway. I would love to watch the expressions of people that saw me going the other direction down the road.

Unfortunately I sold it a few years ago. I would give my left (..) to have it back.

 
I've had muscle all my life and I'm an older guy, Her name is Stella..anyone in the Tampa area?

Are you aware your GTO was actually an Australian made Holden Monaro with different trim?
 
Some of the new Asian cars are certainly muscle material, like that ridiculous Genesis and the 370Z Nismo's out there.

But not American Muscle..... I was next to a 350Z the other day and that is a good looking car. but Not American....:D

What exactly is "American Muscle" with Ford having plants in India, Germany and Australia. Camaros are built exclusively in Canada and other Chevy products built in Mexico.

My last car was a 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse which was designed in California by Americans, built and assembled in Normal, Ill, and never offered for sale to the public in Japan. That would make it more American than most American muscle cars.
