Was there ever a better ALL AROUND car

[EZ Nova]

I'm not knocking ANY CARS. They all fit a bill. I like some of the Pontiac stuff and actually went looking for a 1971 T37 455HO car. Couldn't find one, and still need to check the boxes when one does show up. And a L78 Chevelle would run hard, have some good room, just needs more attention and possible fuel issues as I have found out with my '67 Nova with the 427.

I'm just shopping right now as with the lockdown, you can't really go look at anything or even get over to the USA to get it. I'm hoping to have SOMETHING buy fall of 2021!!!!

I DO really appreciate everyone's input. At this time, I just DO NOT have the funds to go, visit my buddy, and buy his Hemi Challenger Convertible clone. Doubt he would sell anyway. That is the car that really gets me thinking. EFI 426 Hemi, gear-vendors overdrive car that looks and sounds stock, runs 10.70's and can still in Toronto heat and traffic for hours.

All the 67 RamAir cars came with 4.33 gears standard.
No way that thing wouldn't have tore your head off.

RamAir pans were also available over-the-counter items.
67 H/O cars are fast runners, i have one.

But, some peoples cars just won't do the boogy when its time to dance.

Boy I don't think I've heard a statement more true. More often than not, they look better than they run. A lot of people talk, but they never show up at the track.

I like my stuff to run as good or better than they look.

So very true.

Ya NO WAY uncles car had 4.33. He said it was a factory 360Hp car but the gears were changed to 3.55 years ago for driveability. Wasn't a bad car by any means. Purple-ish with black roof and interior. I have always liked the '65 GTO's. Thought of one of them with a 455HO would be nice too.

H/O's were rated 360hp and 3.55 was standard issue
RamAir were under-rated @ 360hp and 4.33

More than likely he would have been bragging more about the whopperjack exhaust manifolds more than anything, if he had a real H/O or RamAir car.
And knew the car.
A lot of guys will pick the highest horse as being theirs.

But who knows, it might have been a 326 Lemans with a GTO hood and emblems.
Shame it wasn't impressive, regardless.
