149 downloadsSaw that a few people were interested in Muscle Cars when predatormaster posted his Nova. Here's a pic of my 1970 SS 454 Chevelle. Bought it when I was 14 and have been fixing it up ever since. Sure don't hunt from it, but it's a lot of fun. It's fully streetable, full interior, full steel body and went 11.80 last time I was at the track. That was with a smoked 3rd gear too. Hoping to go 10's as soon as I get a new tranny in it.
Saw another Muscle Car on Here

Nice Chevelle! Love muscle cars, had a 70 cuda when I was a kid but it was to beat up to restore. Guy that used to own it played Dukes of Hazard with it a few to many times!

Nice ride! I have a 70 too but mines' just a malibu with a 350 full roller and it wears black primer. Mine will do mid 12s on drag tires or low 13s on street BFGs.
Sharps, the rifle that made the west safe for Winchester!
Real tractors have two cylinders and hand clutches.
My rifle is mine, it isn't for sale, and I only give guns to people that I really like.

Nice, what are you putting under the hood? I like the mid 60's muscle cars. Most of them long with square body styles. They really look good if they are done right. Good find when you find something that was a single owner. I've had my car for a long time, but I think it traded hands at least a few times before I got it. One thing's for sure, it won't ever change hands again. Times would have to get pretty rough for me to sell my car.

I'm not concerned about gas prices too much for my car. I think it gets about 3 miles to the gallon around town, but I only put about 50 miles per year on it. Out on the town a couple times a year and thats about it. It usually makes a few trips to the drag strip each year, but does it sitting on a trailer.
