Should the debate begin as to what constitutes a muscle car?
Pontiac- 61-62 Catalina SD car Chevrolet - 65 chevelle Ford - 63.5 galaxie r code Buick - GS stage 1 The others I would have to think about and edit in later. Chevrolet I would much prefer a first gen z28 but I'm in the "those are pony cars" camp. I suppose the galaxie and Catalina are questionable in the other direction. We all take liberties I guess.

WOW ! Just thinkin about all the great Musclecars gives me a thrill. It was such a great time to be young car guy, back in those days. I can still remember all the great parade of cars that circled the "loop" in our little town. Camaros, Mustangs, SS Chevelles, Hemi cars, 440 Cudas & Challengers, 442's, Buick 455's, and of course Birds and Goats.
 Yep, I can remember sitting at the North end of the popular loop, in the bowling alley parking lot, in my Dad's old V6 GMC pickup, listening to the latest rock 'n roll hits on our local AM radio station, watching the parade of great cars go by. When the law wasn't lookin, some of 'em would burn a little rubber goin back up the hill from the bowling alley bottom. And I would look forward to the day when I would be one of those cool guys, driving a cool car, snatchin on a 4-speed and burnin rubber. And thank God, that day came ! Yeah, it was GREAT !  It's really hard to choose just a few favorites, cause there were so many. So, I'll have to do it in more than one post. Ya'll will just have to forgive me, OK. I'll have to agree with some of the other guys and go with a '70 455 Stage 1 Buick. For a Full size Chevy, I'll go with a '62 Impala SS 409. Of course, all these cars will have a 4-speed stick. For a full size Dodge, I'll go with a '67 Hemi Coronet R/T. For my 1st Ford, I'll go with a '67 Fairlane 427. If the pics and my descriptions don't match up, please forgive. I Googled the pics real quick, so I may not have gotten the exact pics I wanted. Hey, that's enuff for my 1st post.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
