Muscle Cars :D

[FRA53R]

I have been looking at muscle cars pretty much all day today, especially those that have been updated so that they can actually turn corners and hold their own against way more modern machinery. During my travels through the many websites glorifying these cars I stumbled upon this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rLmXAT7P0c.

I loved the whole point of this car it blew me away, and I hope to one day own one

Lovely car, but I want to stab the guy in the face with a sharpie.

I've never been so excited about collecting a car

Very nice chap, I'd love a C3

Yeah I must admit there should be some Sharpie inflicted bodily damage to that fellow, not just cause he wont shut up about it, but also cause he gets the chance to drive the car and not us. Oh and rottie that's a very nice 'vette

i was watching some generic american "tuning" cack on sky the other day and they took a 2005 GTO, engine and interior and ripped the shell of and went for a classic GTO shell. modern driving and spec, with a shell that doesnt look like an omega. a great mix.

I love the Pro-touring stuff, like they do in Wrecks to Riches USA. Classic cars with just enough modern tech underneath.

Not sure if it's the show you were watching, but they do this on Custom My Ride a fair bit. Take one old muscle car, and cut the body off the chassis, then do the same to the new improved version, then put old body on new car chassis etc.
They did this for the guy who played Warwick Brown in CSI, he had a charger, so they put the body on the new charger underpinnings. Not a bad idea i have to say

yeah, could well have been that.
