My idea of a "muscle car"

There are various opinions of what a muscle car is.  Some people think that the mid 60's was the birth a muscle car with the Chevelle, Mustang, Barracuda, and Nova coming into production...  I dis-agree and feel that muscle cars actually started in the late 50's with the 348/409 Impalas, Max-wedge Mopars and 390/406/427 Galaxies...  Here are some "REAL" muscle cars...
My kind of Grocery Getter...


Here is an example of the real deal car.  It has something like 4,500 miles on it, all 1/4 mile at a time..  This car was for sale back in the 90's for about $70,000. 

This looks like Grandpa's Pontiac, but line up against the 421/4speed, and all you will see are tail lights...
