I like but want the new 6.7

 

The 6.7 is a better built motor. The only thing I don't care for is the fact you have to use DEP.

 

I prefer the 64.5-70 Mustang just sayin

Id really like a 67 Camaro

 

I miss the 7.3 and 5.9.
I was never a fan of the Duramax (love the Allison) something about the way the trucks pulled bothered me. Both the Chevy and the GMC felt soft not the positive feel I like to have when towing.
I owned a 6.0 loved the truck hated the motor. All I can say is when the warranty went so did I.
I wish dodge could get the front ends designed correctly that's the reason I am looking at a Ford. That and my FIL and BIL both work at ford.

 

I had a 67 when I was in the Navy. My wife misses that car more than I do though, not sure why.

 

Earliest I'd go with any muscle car would be 1968, I don't really like the body style of the earlier Mustangs.. They're just not aggressive enough for me.

 

I agree. Good luck finding one that has not been beat to hell. Thus is the reason I am looking at the 6.7 Fords.

BTW Does anyone do or know about hotshot services? Thinking about a side gig for fun.

my girlfriend recently finished raising $20,000 by herself. She is usin the money to buy a bus for a Romanian church and is flying to Europe this summer and she will buy a bus in Germany and drive it to Romania. Just figured I would brag a little bit about my girlfriend. She has been raising money for a bit over a year I think and did several fund raisers for this mission trip along the way.

 

I really only like the 67-70 fast backs. I just don't like how stretched looking the 71 and later mustangs were, also they were underpowered and heavy with overstated h.p. engines.


To each their own though

 

That's awesome. Congrats.

 

Enlighten me with what I'm missing out on that was built before 1968.

 

Pretty much every musclecar lol

 

You are eliminating the 63-66 vettes, the 64 GTO which pretty much started the horsepower races...Lot of history your cutting.

But, you are correct to each their own.

 

Yeah he is missing most of the musclecar era lol

 

I understand that. I miss my Camaro. The classics are awesome but the new ones are fun too.

 

I keep waiting for someone to start a replica version. Then I would be torn between steel and glass.

 

I don't miss any of it at all, I just like the way car manufacturers went with the bigger body styles and the bigger engines in the late 60s/early 70s.. The best years of the muscle car went from 1968-1973 in my opinion.

Buick makes the biggest influence of my opinions above^

 

Well said
