[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16204593, member: 6727"] Late '50s and early '60s. Life was SO different from what we see today. Sometimes simple is just better. Car wise, my fave is the '60s. Muscle back then was just so cool. The muscle car culture was huge back then. Even if you didn't own one, you admired them all and were drawn in like a bug to a bright light. LOL. 421 Pontiacs, 427 Vettes, 396 Chevelles, hi-po 289 Mustangs, 389 GTOs, etc. Every division had their own variation of a platform. And the public ate them all up. The car culture was different back then. SO many muscle car choices back them from Chevy (including COPOs), Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Buick, Dodge, Plymouth, AMC, Ford, Mercury, Shelby Cobra. And if factory wasn't enough, there were tuner shops/dealerships ready to up the ante. Baldwin-Motion, Fred Gibb Chevrolet, Tasca Ford, Dana Chevrolet, Berger Chevrolet, Nickey Chevrolet, Dick Harrell Performance Center, Mr. Norm Grand Spaulding Dodge, Yenko Chevrolet, Royal Bobcat Pontiac, and Hurst Olds. But, we didn't have the factory horsepower numbers we find today in the likes of the new GT-500, Hellcat, Chevy Camaro ZL-1, etc. [/QUOTE]
