Re: meanest supercars....
 

I agree with the B/M L-88/ZLX cars as far as BadA$$ and mean but they're look is too wild for me. I've always been partial to the sleeper look.

My vote: the '68 Gibb Harrell 427 and the '69 Yenko and Dana Novas!

Are we talking as delivered, or day two?

Ya the hemi dart was quick, but ugly!!, I vote for any 427 camaro, they have the looks and the power an allround killer combination dosent matter who put it together, they are all pretty close as far as performance goes and i am sure that whoever has one is the envy of his nieghborhood!!

I still think that a '68-'69 Motion-built ("as delivered") 427 L88 Phase III Nova, "welds" and all, would have to be pretty damn hard to beat. With gears and cheater slicks it's got to be a low 11/high-10 car! Same goes for a 'tuned' '69 Yenko Nova or a Dick Harrell Nova. Camaros too, but the Novas have a slight weight advantage. But, in the weight department, a Phase III Stingray would have to be right up there too. No wonder the insurance companies threw down the gauntlet in 1970!

Hemi Darts were/are awesome cars but not street legal. I think the term "Supercar" implies a street-legal car delivered through a dealership or dealer subcontractor like Motion or Harrell.

thats debateable. i know Hurst worked with AMC on the SC/ramblers but i'm not sure on the SC/hornets. these cars were definately Supercars and not sold through subcontractors. the topic is "Meanest" and nothin screams American Badass better than a A scheme SC/rambler. except...

Xplant - the car I'm talking about was an ugly sleeper. Seems like in was that intermediate sized Dodge coronet. Had an aluminum grill and I think it was one of the first real write-ups about the hemi. This guy raced down Van Nuys Blvd. and blew everything away. He wrote in a way that you relived everything he did. It was great. One day I will find that article....one day.

The Hemi Dart was bad but they were no warranty not for street use weren't they? Or does it matter?
