Not considered an old “muscle car” but it is a classic now lol. 1991 LX with cobra heads, B cam, explorer intake, electric fan, full exhaust, 2700 stall, shift kit and 3.73 gears.
Classic Car Club of America has defined a Classic as one made during a specific period of '20s into the '40s to include the Lincoln Continental. There are "special interest" vehicles [ many from Independents ] too mainstream and common to be considered "classics" and cars considered "Milestones"[ 49 Ford, 55-57 Chevrolet, 64 1/2 Mustang, etc].I think that classic means different things to different people. For example, I wasn't able to get a "classic car" insurance until my car reached 25 years old. And even to me, classic means before 1971-72 ish. And I've even heard(undocumented) from others that...20 yrs old is a classic and 25 yrs old is an antique.
The fact that you actually geared it plus a stall converter is a huge plus in my book.Not considered an old “muscle car” but it is a classic now lol. 1991 LX with cobra heads, B cam, explorer intake, electric fan, full exhaust, 2700 stall, shift kit and 3.73 gears.View attachment 39111
Beautiful car, Machmarcus. Mine is also a 69 R code in winter blue, but has a black interior. You don't find many winter blues out there. That color just "pops" in sunlight.1969 Mustang Mach 1 428 Cobra Jet -Winter Blue View attachment 39118View attachment 39119
I assure you that THIS Ford runs more than 500HP, and that's before the bottle....I think classic means at least 50 years old. Muscle means at least 300 horsepower if not 400. That leaves out the Fords I suppose......
Love 65 and 66!1966 Pontiac GTO convertible equipped with original 389 Tri-Power engine, automatic transmission, and factory A/C. Very rare combination in 1966.

Automechanic, we used to joke about these. You just can’t have one VW beetle. If someone owns one, they end up with 6. My dad had...3 if I remember, and based on that he bought a rabbit, and then a vanagon. I picked up a 73 vw bus and Really enjoyed working on that one. unfortunately I took to driving the bus before getting fuel issues sorted and it ended sadly in a car-b-que, but it was Fun while we had it!Depends on your version of muscle car lol. But yes I have what I think is a classic car and that’s my beetle a car that I will love and hold onto forever and hopefully own more one day.
Lol the person I bought mine from owned 5 or 6 of them. I want more so badly. But can’t own any other cars right now because we are at the county limit that we live in which is 8 before it’s considered a car lot. I love Beetles and classic VW too but especially the Beetles.Automechanic, we used to joke about these. You just can’t have one VW beetle. If someone owns one, they end up with 6.

Absolutely. Winter Blue was a one year only color. Many Grande's and Coupes got that color, but not many of those have survived. According to Marti, mine has a twin that was exactly the same that also came out of the same dealership, Tennessee Motors in Johnson City TN.Beautiful car, Machmarcus. Mine is also a 69 R code in winter blue, but has a black interior. You don't find many winter blues out there. That color just "pops" in sunlight.
My dad had one of these, green with fender skirts and SB 400. What torque! It was a telephone pole to pole sleeper. Ran out of poop after that.I have a 1970 Monte Carlo that I bought in 1987 at the age of 20. It originally was a 400 small block car with a TH350. In 1997 I had a 396 big block installed with a TH400. It needs a restoration again so hopefully one day that will happen.
