Default Re: Most Impressive Stock Muscle Car

Lots of cars, lots of memories. A buddy's '73 SD-455, auto w/3.42 ran fairly well, but there are two that stand out. First was a friend's '70 1/2 Z-28, 4-speed w/4.10's. Cortez silver/black. Sweet Jesus, that car flew-- Many have said it, but it was a "kiss the ground" moment when exiting that thing. Of course, it was totaled...

As in the last post, the fastest car I've been in was my uncle's '69 SC/Rambler. Not entirely stock (Torker, Holley, solid cam, 4.44's, but exhaust manifolds(?))-- That thing was such a beast. You couldn't shift it fast enough, and man did that thing hook up. The simple physics of a favorible power to weight ratio I guess...

The way I look at that SC/Rambler, it had aftermarket parts on it that the GM products came stock with. If only AMC had the money for warranty repairs...
