Doug Rogers Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Some of those are stunning, is that a Yenko Camaro with the red wheels, and the early Corvette is just gorgeous. And the Impalas...ok, they're all fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Damn! And I just sat & watched an episode of Fast 'n' Loud. Gas Monkey Rocks & so do those pics. Lots of American cars out here, But mostly they are SUV's or Crown Vics etc. Last interesting one I saw was '71 Nova a few years ago. They are out there though.

Smiffy Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Holy crap. It's like muscle car heaven. I'll take that black goat (grrrr, indeed). Or maybe one of the Chevelles. That blue Camaro, possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffreyK Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 ...why did people stop making good looking cars after 1970? Nothing I really like is built after that. The best vintage year seems to be 1966 - Pontiac GTO, Dodge Charger, Mercedes-Benz 250SE Coupé/Convertible.... Thanks for posting and keep them coming!

D1fuN0 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Howdy chaps I absolutely luuuuuurv muscle cars and those pics look fantastic.... thanks. I have a couple of Muscle cars in the stash, but the nicest, is the Monogram '69 Camaro SS in 1/12th. There are 3 that I have always wanted to build; a '49 Mercury, '70 Plymouth Superbird and I suppose the one that would have me accused of heresy, sacrelidge etc etc would be the Cord 812... made into a hodrod, in purple!!! But my absolute favourite, is the '57 chevy... I think after the 70's, cars just lost that 'character' that they had, and we have the NCAP safety boxes we have today. Think about it, today, can you honestly say that cars on the road have that character those oldies did. What can possibly compare to the GTO's, the Firebirds etc... (stepping back and waiting for the bunfight to begin...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in Lincs Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Terrible thing to say, I know, But, Much as I like Muscle cars, Have you seen the Tesla model S? looks like an even better Jag XF. Range is crap at 200 miles, but it can shift. Top model is about $70,000 And a huge waiting list. Bring on the mark 2, is what I say. Mariner. keep those pics coming though! Please?

D1fuN0 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Mariner..... You just had to do that.... Hehe Look at that Cord, imagine that, chopped and shaved biiiiig bugger tyres and.. Purple!!!! Thanks Mariner. And Pete.. Isn't the Tesla an electric? Sorry, still prefer my polluters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 You can't do that to a Cord. Sacrelige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D1fuN0 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 You can't do that to a Cord. Sacrelige. Hehe, i know, thats the point. Ages ago, I saw a article in a magazine of the top 10 cars that will never be made into hotrods, and the Cord was at the top.They are just so rare and so valuable, that it would be sacrilidge. However..... 12 times smaller and in plastic, oh hell yes. Now all I need is the kit... Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
