which one of these cars would you pick? don't forget to subscribe ❤

[stickman-]

LOL. Just some of the cars you missed: the 1968 428CJ, the 1969 428CJ Mach 1, the Torino Cobra 428, the 427 Cougar GTE. All low to mid 13's. Also the 289 Cobra was a solid 12 second car. And if you go to 1971, the Boss 351 Mustang also ran mid 13's. The Buick GSX was also a low 13 second car.

[michaelhardesty]

You forgot 69 boss 429, 69 charger, 70 chevelle,

[njorgnjorg]

How does a hemi cuda not get mentioned in this vid.

[Tight--LiNeZ]

To have been a rich man back then. Now that was living. Women were women and cars were awesome!

[auto-Insight-yt]

Corvette Zl1 is the best ✨ like if you agree

[bradhardy]

1968 Hurst hemi Darts and Barracudas are the fastest factory muscle cars until the hellcat came out.

[robertcullom]

1964 ford fairlanes thunderbolt less than 12 seconds quarter mile

[AutumnKnights]

This isn’t quite accurate. The fastest factory produced quarter mile muscle car of the 1960’s that I am aware of was the 1968 Dodge Hemi Dart Super Stock, code LO23. Only 80 made, and although only on dealer sheets for a very brief period, they were manufactured and sold to the public. And it’s quarter mile time has been reported as low as 9-10 seconds.

I love American muscle cars, so thank you for the video.
But, please find someone else to narrate these videos.

[jetsgardner]

Once again you seem bound and determined to insult hardcore car guys with your ignorant AI/computer voice instead of using a narrator. 1:29 you say it's distinctive because you call it a "hee-mee" instead of the correct "heh-mee." 3:23 & 3:57 Another video where an Oldsmobile 4-4-2 is called a four hundred and forty two. 4 barrel carbs, 4 speed Manual 2 racing pipes-there is no hundred anywhere in that name. It is not called a U30 it is a W30. 4:23 Pon-"tee"-ack, not Pon-chick, not Pontick. 6:15 -Cam-AIR-oh, not cam-arrow, 6:20 nor Chem-er-oh, nor 7:36 Kum-ahr-oh - the accent is on the 2nd syllable. At 9:00 Um, what weighs between 29-45 pounds??? please tell you don't think that's the torque.

[mitchnerem]

Wrong, wrong and more wrong... I do love the fantasy store you're telling but it's inaccurate.

[bhyman]

Yeah you’re wrong my friend. They still had superchargers, did cams, headers, timing etc . I think you better do some more research.

@American Legends - Where do you get your information from? Does anyone in your network actually own Muscle Cars? Corvette and Cobra are NOT Muscle Cars ! If anyone wants to know the TRUE meaning of a Muscle Car I would be glad to share . Lastly, Its obvious that you have no knowledge of what a Ram Air IV is ....
