Celebrating the coolest cars ever made, nothing like the sound of that engine when you turn that key.
Muscle car is an American term used to refer to a variety of high-performance automobiles. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines muscle cars as "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." A large V8 engine is fitted in a 2 or 4 door, rear wheel drive, family-style full-size car designed for four or more passengers. Sold at an affordable price, muscle cars are intended for street use and occasional drag racing. They are distinct from two-seat sports cars and expensive 2+2 GTs intended for high-speed touring and road racing.
A Camaro wasn’t on Steven Williams’ mind when he ran across this one; he already had his time occupied restoring and hot rodding his first car, a ’55 Chevy two-door hardtop. But the body was just too straight and the price was right. You know the feeling; we’ve all been there. The paint was near perfect, and the Camaro ran well, so Steven didn’t have much in the way of speed parts planned at first. Of course, that all changed in a hurry the day his son outran him in his ’66 Mustang. How dare he! To put him in his place, the Camaro went into the garage and rolled out infused with a new Trick Flow–headed 383 small-block topped by a Weiand 6-71 blower, a Richmond quick-change rearend with 3.42 gears, and a Tremec five-speed. “He can’t outrun me now!” Steven told us, while grinning ear-to-ear. All those parts made the Camaro much more fun to drive as well; to date it’s been on several Hot Rod magazine Power Tours and competed at the ECTA’s Maxton Mile top-speed event.
