What do you consider to be the "Greatest muscle car ever"?

[MUSTANGER1986]

Yes I understand about the LS6 Chevelles.Best car at the track, I would say a Hemi Darts.there was a special package 66 chevy II. I found a artical about a guy who raced one.12.01 at 115mph. Now that is quick straight out of the box.

Best at the track car boss 429, proven fact by the muscle car shootout on speed.

that was only a few cars .. And they were regular Muscle Cars not factory specials . Such as Hemi-darts, Sohc 427 Mustangs , COPO Camaros . and a whole bunch I cant think of right off the top of my head ..

here is the list http://www.autofacts.ca/classics/fast.htm

I remember back in the early 80's, Hot Rod did an article on the fastest "production" muscle car. No speciality cars were included. The end result was the 70 LS6 SS and the 70 Hemi Cuda both ran 12.2's, with slicks. No Ford was included, especially the heavily de-tuned Boss 429.

I dont know why every one talks about the Boss 429 and not about the 64 Tbolt .. And why everyone loves the Hemi-Cuda all of the sudden..The hemi Roadrunner was a lighter car ...

The hemi roadrunner was lighter than the hemi cuda? That's news to me
Anyway The 70-71 vert hemi cuda is the height/essence of muscle car suave
come on man this is a lsx forum but both me and you know the deal.

Ok I did some checking in old Issues of Muscel Car review ... 70 Hemi-Cuda 3900, 69 Hemi Roadrunner 3950.. And I would take a 67 Vert Vette over the Cuda anyday ...

Man it's amazing that small cuda coupe is heaver than a full size roadrunner, anyway you do know the 70-71 hemi cuda verts are one of if not the most valuable muscle cars. I would rather take the cuda, but to each it's own.

anything HEMI has gone through the roof ..It is kinda weird that a Hemi-Cuda is worth more than a Hemi- Challenger ...go figure ......

Is that because the cuda is rarer?

[StangKiller615]

You forgot the Yenko Camaro.

Ok without pulling up all sorts of web pages and getting into options . I saw that the Challenger was even more rare with a Hemi. Some real MOPAR guy may know more I only checked one book . May be Cuda sounds cooler than Challenger .. It is like which sounds better 455 or 454.....lol...

Eh its not an option but I would love a Hemi Dart, just because soo many people don't know they ever made one. But it's true technology has taken over the gas dripping tail pipe days..

But it will never be the same, the ground just doesn't shake the same way, and its not a 5,000lb car doing it.

I was at a Dodge show one time .. A guy backed a 62-63 Hemi Dart , I think .. may have been a 413, And you could feel the ground shakeing all the way across the parking lot.

I said the GNX!! I am an outcast, and I have owned two! It's my fav on this thread, as well because it's the only V-6, and the rest are all 8's Soon will be a T-type for me gentlemen!

Cuda is better looking end of story. I grew up during that time and that's the way it is.

91 ford escort. Best muscle for the money

[StangKiller615]

The biggest and baddest of all time. The 1990 Nova, that thing screamed muscle.
