Quickest cars of 1970


Recommended Posts

Those cars do nothing for me now. I think my wifes buick is faster than most of them. 

When I was a kid a guy in our neighborhood had a Road Runner with a 6 pack. We thought that was the fastest car ever. One of my buds had a 69 442 with a 455. Thing used to melt the tires at will. But drank gas like Ben going thru coors lite.

I like looking at them. That’s about it. I wouldn’t pay big money to own one.

The way they publish hp ratings have changed as well. A Stock ls3 realistically puts out around the same power as the fabled 426 hemi. 

Oh and that list was dominated by GM and dodge no surprise there

Surprised by the number of automatics on that list.

I always admired the muscle cars but never felt the need to own one.

 

69 charger rt is the only muscle car id consider....maybe a 66 chevelle as well.

That 20 year old probably rides, handles ,  moves better than my 50 year old, but she still puts a smile on my face every time I pull the cover off her. 🍻

 

You talking about a ride or a woman?
