In my opinion you can't get any badder than a Dick Harrell tuned 68 COPO SS 427 Nova.

Another bad ass car is a Nickey 427 Camaro

One of my personal favorites of all time is ZL1#1

Either a '68-'69 B-M Nova or a '69 427 Yenko Nova. Light car with LOTS of horsepower. I thought I read that Yenko had to stop building the 427 Novas because they were, in his words, "too dangerous." (Hence, the Yenko Deuce.)

My opinion... This '73 ZLX Camaro would spank a 427 Yenko Nova



There wasn't anything on the street meaner than the Motion built cars

as an example.. what would you call a Yenko Camaro or Nova that was bought new from Yenko, then taken to Motion Performance to have the beast unleashed? Now THAT would be the ultimate supercar

I have been a Chevy guy for a long time,but I dont know if I would want to put any of the above picks up against a Hurst Hemi Dart on slicks.If I were going to pick a motion car,I would think I would be hard to argue with the insanity behind a bigblock Motion built Vega.

Hard to argue with a Hemi Dart.What kind of exhaust did the Hemi Dart come with stock?.

Motion was famous for it...but every big city had their shop that would build killer stuff...Hemi Darts are sure badass...so are the Mr Norm GSS 440 Darts..But I'll still take a 69 Yenko Nova and tweak it like everyone did.....that has got to be an animal...

Gotta be MOTION. 11.50's or your money back. My '67 BM Chevelle is a good example of how bad these cars were. The car set the B/HR record at NY National Speedway (11.50 @ 123 mph) as a 2 week old car off the showroom floor. Not too shabby. It later ran 10's with the addition of a tunnel ram. That's a hell of a fast street car in 1967 or even today.
