Curious as to what Muscle Cars everyone has owned in the past. Not only Mustangs but other makes and models. Also the term Muscle Car can be at your discretion... if you thought of it as a Muscle Car then list it. I am sure everyone has had a few!

I have had 3 different 67 Cutlasses (love the big body Oldsmobiles) always wanted a 442 but always just had Cutlasses... they sure would create a lot of white smoke in the school parking lot! Had a 330 with 310HP from the factory.

Also had a 1967 Chevelle Malibu (wish it was the SS) had a 327 and a powerglide transmission. Sold it before deploying to Iraq in 2003. As usual wish I would have kept it.

Fox Mustangs: 1979 Notch (4 cyl), 1985 GT (current one), 1987 LX 5.0, 1989 GT, 1990 GT, (1993 Cobra..future car I plan to buy next year with the reenlistment bonus I will get)

Have also owned 3 Grand Prix's ..... 97 GT Red, 99 GT silver, 00 GTP Blue
Awesome cars with great looks, room, and plenty of power.

Lets here about your awesome rides.... pics if you can post em!

The oldest thing i've ever owned, i was really too young to "own" but it was supposed to be mine, but was sold because it needed too much work. Looking back now we all kick ourselves because it turned out to be extremely rare and worth money...it was a '74 Buick Apollo GSX. It looked exactly like this:

Other than that i've owned a '79 Grand Prix and a '80 Regal but i wouldn't consider either one musclecars. I've had an '88 GT, '83 hatch with a 351, and my coupe as far as Mustangs go.

Thanks! Yeah, it kills me to think of what even one of those 6 pack cars would bring today. I really enjoyed them and drove the crap out of every one of those cars. I sold off the last one, a 70 Barracuda with a 318 in it in 92, when I bought my first late model mustang, my vert that I just got rid of. It pained me, but I was dating at the time and the mustang went over a lot better than the barracuda did, lol.
And it is even tougher when I think I paid 350 for that 70 road runner with a 440 six pack and four speed with a 4.10 dana under it. black on black with an air grabber hood and only 44k miles on it. lol, those were the days!

I don't technically "own" any muscle cars...

To me, muscle cars died in the 70's.

My dad, however, has a '65 Ford Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe w/ K-code 289 Hi-po and a 4 speed. Very cool car, he's had it since '80-'81-ish.

Yep, I've had a bunch of them, really regret selling them all off too. I had a 74 Charger SE with a 400 bb with an auto. We pulled out the 400 and put a 440 in it, and when I had it and sold it, that's what it was. It ran pretty good, was fun to drive and LOUD. Had the silencer tips in the back too, was pretty cool. black on black, rusty here and there, and interior was needing tlc too. But even with all that, I'd take it back in a heartbeat. It used to sit out by a highschool north of town of of diamond mill road. Don't know where it is now.
