Default Re: History of the Muscle Car TV

I agree with you all. It was good but it should have been called "GTO" history. (the DeLoren comment above was not far off either) Photos of cars and the drag racing were nice but unfortunately, it centered on Pontiac and Chrysler mostly. They barely mentioned Chevrolet except for the 67 Chevelle. Being pro Chevrolet, I felt they could have at least mentioned the Rat Motor or the COPO (considering Floyd has so many Chevy supercars in his collection). With so much history of Musclecars in general, this should be a series, highlighting each car manufacturer per episode; that would be a true overview of the history of all Musclecars. What do you guys think?

I think they should have interviewed a few people on this site! They may have gotten a better slant on what muscle cars were all about. The people that produced this program have probably never seen a true muscle car! It seems they let Wangers run the show.

I have to agree. I thought it was very boooorrrring. Bits and pieces of other shows IÃd seen in the past. Not even in much of an orderly way, (or maybe I was sleeping during parts).

Its a shame it turned into a GTO show. For what its worth, I tried to tell them to expand it to cover ALL the muscle cars, but they stayed away from the pony, and basicly everything else. Also, your right, Wangers is set on the GTO and nothing else being a muscle car (for the most part).
Take care,
