Land Yacht Muscle Cars
|
I really like the heavyweights although I'm probably in the minority. I have several and still looking. They are great drivers.
|
Finally, CAUTION FAN stickers in the right place, on the right cars!

I like full size muscle cars. Have a couple sitting in my garage that I'll never part with.
|
These were so rare on mainstreet USA. As a kid growing up in the '70s, the only introduction to these cars was the Rat Fink stickers.....which could make any car look cool. Those stickers did peek my curiosity and I became aware...but wouldn't grow to appreciate till I became a bit bored of repetition.

When I was in high school my friends dad had a 70 or so Buick Wildcat with a 455 in it. That car would fly on the top end. We’d get it up to 120 mph all the time.

I also like the big cars with big motors, this is one of my favorites. It's a 60 Pontiac Ventura Tri Power, 4 speed. Special order '59 Pontiac Mandalay Red paint. Photo of the car was taken at the Greenbriar Concourse show last year

A friend bought a new '72 GP, nothing special engine wise, but it was triple black, with RED carpet! I thought that was cool!

In the mid-late '60's one of the quicker stock/un-modified cars in town was a '66 Catalina 2plus2 tri-carb 421 (376hp IIRC?) 4 speed with 3.73. It would hook up and be gone!:3gears:

Sometimes all a car needs is the right colors to look good.
|
FWIW, the Cyclone was a mid-size car.

One of our special Invitational displays at MCACN this year is Big Body Muscle. I personally LOVE a big-body big block 4-speed!
We have some really neat and some really rare and unexpected cars joining us. If you own one of these, please consider joining us. Bashton |
One of my first cars was a 62 Bonneville with the interior colors almost exactly like Tommy's 59 Ventura. I loved the clear sides on the steering wheel. I was only a teenager when I saw the car for sale while out driving one day and bought it for $1200. When I got it home to my parents house, the garage door wouldn't close because it was too long. The trunk on these cars is massive. Came in handy when sneaking friends into the drive-in. LOL
