Just wondering if anyone here has a muscle car they fixed up? I just finished (almost) rebuilding a 1969 SS Chevelle. It's red with black stripes. It's not original because I replaced the engine with a 454 big block...they didn't come stock until 1970. I just put all black interior (it had all red) in it...the only thing left to do is paint it. It's been in the sun alot and is a really light red...so I'm going to paint it this summer some time..hopefully.
My wife has a 1968 Mustang with a 289. It's an off white..kinda cream color..which she hates. It has a black vinyl top. It's pretty sweet.

Nice selection Brando. I learned to drive on one like this 70 Malibu. Use to get it to do donuts.

I had a Buick wagon like this but blue when I was in high school....one of my collection of vehicles. They don't make them like the "pussy canoe" anymore.

I also had a 1965 Ford Galaxie 500 that was sweet.

I love a 70 Malibu. Don't listen to what anyone says...they can be a bad ass car.

SWEET! My dad always wanted a Galaxie. He also always wanted a 1978 Firebird...Orange with a black bird on the hood.
