I do love the 429 but the 302 is lighter. Both are favorites of mine.

My favorite is the 1967 Mustang Fastback S-code with the 390 ci engine. I also really like the 1968 Ford Torina Fastbacks with the big 428 under the hood.

Fugly as it is, it was a great car, it had a 402 in it, and until I raced a 72' gtx with dual carbs, it was the fastest car in town (such as it was). It hit just over 350 hp on a dynometer back in '79 which may not seem like much now days, but it was pretty good back then.

Misunderstanding. The Yenko Camaro was a classic. I would kill for one. I was just making a joke. Some people only know about it through the Fast and the Furious. N20 ejection seats aren't very flattering for an American icon.

Wasn't the Shelby was first? I thought had it's design based off a Triumph, and AC was then after licensed to produce the Cobra. The AC and the Shelby are WAY to smilar (read identical) to be just design influences...
Also, you people are wrong! My favorite muscle car is a 1970 Dodge Challenger Hemi! I've driven an R/T with a 440, and man was that amazing!

One reason why I love the GTO Judge so much is because my dad has the old 69' judge and it sat in his garage for about 13 years till I got to about the age of 8 then we started working on it and getting it road ready. We have history

God's gift to mankind:

And I got to drive it (orgasmic!):

This was my dad's friend's car. He's pretty picky about his stuff, and I couldn't believe he let me ride in it, much less drive it. Sadly, he sold it. Got $40k out of it though.

false. http://www.factoryfive.com - http://www.factoryfive.com has the kit for 12,000 and all you need is a donor car, so your total price tag ends up being like 20,000 if you spend a good 8,000 for the donor car, or just buy new parts. Not to mention if done right, one of these can do a 4.2 ish quarter mile

Many people forget about the AMC's. I loved my Dad's friend AMX. The car looked brand new back in the 80's.
A Not so funny story about it. He had the motor blue printed, put it back in, fired it up and then a few sec later BOOM! He sadly discovered he forgot to put oil in it and had to have the motor re-done.
But yeah I loved that AMX. *Salutes Old Soldier
