No it wasn't the montes and regals were slow ill handling pieces of shit. The late 70s and 80s was a wasteland of American car design. 

Took my brother through 6 years of college after Dad had driven it 90k.

Shitty olds 403 in a 79 ta.  77-78 at least had the pontiac 400.

Z28s at least had a 350 sb.

yeah....no I'd have to disagree.  I had a 79 TA 6.6 bought new, WS6 pkg. bird delete, no t tops.  What i thought was as purist as you he could get.  What a piece of shit in stock trim.  Rattling leaking piece of shit.  AC worked for shit, not that fast, the rattles drove me nuts.  I finally put headers, real duals and a few other things to wake it up.  My girlfriend/first wife got a 82 Z-28 with the 305.  My god what a gutless pile.  My 05 GTO with the LS2 would embarass any of those era cars.  The new stuff would embarass my GTO.

Not looking for an argument, and wouldn't care either ways but wut?  :lol:  Lets hear what kind of 6700 lb. truck goes 0-60 faster than 4.6 seconds and is in the 12s for a 1/4 mile?  :dunno:    :bc:

Yeah it was a Holden.  Same motor a Corvette came with at the time.  Rated 400 hp.  The new shit is well north of 600 hp.

gotcha.  Still skeptical of a 3/4 ton truck being quicker to 60 than even a lowly 05 GTO

Me too...i was north of 500hp on my 6.7 with some engine mods and tuner.

79 was nice looking tho. Bud had a 79, I was stunned to see the 403 in there . 180hp pos...I had a 78 z28 4sp 383 stroker.  Was a fun fast car.

I agree. Only point I was making i guess was they were nice looking . I know they sucked shit in stock form. I especially liked the 81 z28, 4sp with the functional cowl like and old chevelle...
