| I love GTO's, is that a '65? I would like to have a '67 stingray Corvette or '69 Camaro. I saw plenty of them (69 camaros) at Rod Run in Pigeon Forge this past year. They are pretty common but I still love that design. My brother is rebuilding a '67 Impala right now. It is a heavy car but he and his girlfriend's dad just built a 383 stroker motor for it. | |

| I have had 5 #66 Chargers. I just took a liking to them for some reason. I have had several muscle cars since before I was even old enough to drive. I have had a couple of 389 3 dueces GTOs.

| Now we're talking, lets get a gear head forum. I'm generally a GM guy but who can deny Eleanor from gone in 60 seconds. That car is sweet! 1967%20ford%20mustang%20eleanor%20r.jpg | |

I saw one about a year and a half ago in downtown ATL from my friends balcony. She was nestled in between two giant SUV's on a side street.
It was amusing to watch people's reaction when they walked by it. Most would be having a conversation that fell absolutely silent when they got in eye's view. Beautiful car. Midnight black with solid gold racing stripes.  | |

| Not a muscle car but my current project. I hope mine turns out as well. I intend on this being my last project and one I intend to keep and drive. My dad had one and I use to love riding in it as a kid. | |
