The demise of the muscle car...?

[70-SS/RS-L78]

My 70 SS-L78 sat on the dealer’s lot for over a year, It was sold a few times but they either couldn’t get insurance or the
premiums were just out of site. The original owner of my car came up with the bright idea to put it in his wife’s name. As
a matter of fact it is still in her name. My guess would be the government and insurance companies put an end to the
muscle car of the 60’s and early 70’s… It seemed like every week you heard about another person or friend dying in one
of these cars back then, not unlike today with the inexperienced drivers behind the wheel of a Viper or Corvette. Back
then they were affordable and extremely popular and everybody had one, much like the Rice Cars of today, Hears a scary
thought, Picture these Rice Drivers in Big Block Camaro’s, Cuda’s, and Mustangs
