I know there are plenty here that do and just as many that don't.

If you do, post up pics of yours. If you don't, post models you used to own or wish you owned.

I will be adding lots of pictures and I'm willing to answer any questions about any of them.

Here's mine. 1972 Olds Cutlass. One repaint. Just a cruiser.

Nope. I've been too busy. I did take the kids around to some local hotel lots looking for muscle cars in our Cutlass. I'll post some of those pics.

I've got a really nice 1970 Copugar in the garage- up on blocks and missing the entire front suspension and steering.  Got a shipped notification for some of the replacement parts last night though, so eventually we'll get it back together.

Look at all the colors, man I love that.

I'm not a FCA fan but damn they really nailed the modern muscle car with the Challengers and the best part is the colors and graphics packages, they're almost all unique in some way unlike the vast oceans of generic black/white/silver-grey/red/navy blue commuter cars out there today.

No offense to op and some other posters but muscle cars to me are the big block monster engine cars.

440 Six Packs
426 Hemis
454 LS6s
455 Stage 1s
427 L88s
429 Cobra Jets
427 Ford SOHCs

I could go on but you get my drift.

The "GTO" shown is a goat in name only. By 74 the "SS", "Rally", "GTO" and such monikers were trim packages only. The muscle car was dead by then.

Not totally wrong. Here's your HEMI and I already posted a 6BBL.

Here's another 440 for good measure.

How about a 427 in a 65 R code Galaxie?

Or a SOHC in a 64 Galaxie?

I admire muscle cars, but have no desire to own another fast car.

Back in the day I had a 1971 El Camino SS 396, 1967 Camaro RS, and 1978 Z-28.

It's a wonder I'm still alive.

That is one of the original promo cars in 1971. All were 440 6BBL automatics. They were all Curious Yellow as well. Some had more options than others. They were to showcase the 1971 Cuda.

This is a two fender tag car. It has cool options like the N96 shaker hood, rear window louvers, road lamps, front and rear elastomeric bumpers, billboards and the list goes on.

Last show I went to was a couple years back. This GT500KR took up all of my attention. Two-owner car, with the first owner being my cousin, who sold it to the current owner at least 40 years ago. Paint, interior, everything still original, as I understand it. Fuuuuuuuuuck.

Oh I'm aware. It was in my gallery so I posted it. I feel the last "muscle car" to leave Detroit was the 1974 SD455 Trans Am and Formula Firebirds.

Pontiac was grasping straws and threw up two middle fingers when they finally lost grip.

The definition of muscle car is putting a big engine in a small, light car.  Pontiac started the craze by building a production muscle car when they put a 389 in a small Tempest, and put the muscle car term on map.   Later they went a step further by putting the Ram Air IV in the Trans Am but you forgot that one on your list even thought it could take most of those cars in the quarter

Also. The 69 Yenko did happen. Just not very many were transformed before the plug was pulled. A real 69 Yenko 427 Nova resides no more than a half hour away from me.

Always loved most of the classics, never owned one.

Chevelles were at the top of my list until I learned of Detomaso Panteras.  By the time I could afford to buy a decent one at current prices, they'll probably be going for a few million.
