Very nice indeed mate I am all over the classic yank muscle cars just a shame they are no longer practical or reliable as a every day car now otherwise I would have one instead of my Monaro Vxr.

Another vote for American muscle cars





When we go ack to Cebu we ride around in this 96 modle not as nice as the first op picture though
Wifes nephew has a 68 mustang in black 6.2 ltr engine I think and we go cruising in that at 12 mpg great fun revving up at the traffic lights
I always stick £20 of fuel in it and the petrol pump attendances can't believe it as they get £2 a day wages

We go to a car club which has lots of American muscle cars ,really big scene over there as easy to maintain and fuel is cheap if you can afford a car in the phillipnes

If I had silly money to burn I would have a mustang new shape in this country

Love the vette. If money were no object I'd import a Shelby GT500. Or wish I had the skills to restore a 72 like the one above. It was immaculate. Inside and out. Amazed the guy had it out in the wet

When I bought my muscle car in 1982 I had a choice between a '69 390GT Mustang and a 1971 383ci Dodge Charger. At the time there were lots of pony cars around, but not too many of these.

Wow
That's really old school can't remember the last time I saw one of those on the roads

Just something magic about old 60/70/80s cars

When I was a bit boy I remember seeing a red one with


A starsky and hutch white stripe on it

Love that Mk3. The first family car we had when i was a kid. We had some great times in that car. I was just the basic 1.3 but had a 1.6 gearbox. J reg.
