Talking Welcome MuscleCarClub.com

Welcome Muscle Car Club.com!


I've been a big fan your site for quite some time. And i've quoted many articles of information from your website in the past. Your website is a great database of knowledge on Muscle cars.


But only beef with your site that I have is by your definition of a 'Muscle Car'. My '72 Nova (non-SS) is not a muscle car.

I sooo Boo you. Just because its not a SS... doesn't mean it shares the same characteristics as the more powerful models. Sorry but that just pisses me off that a site I like says my car isn't a muscle car.

Thanks

Thanks for being a fan of the site. I try (in the little spare time that I have) to put together the best site for muscle car info and specs. As for the muscle car definition, it varies. My site reflects the general definition, strict though it may be. However, the real definition is different depending on who you ask. But I say, enjoy what you have, whether or not the "experts" consider it a muscle car. That is what counts.

True true... its dependant on who you ask. It still lights my fire though haha.


But, in about a month or so my '72 Nova will be alot more muscle-ly-er... if thats even a word? haha. Than the '72 Nova SS. Motor is finally getting near completion. 425hp is much better than the stock 200hp from the SS.


Of course.. over the years not many of the cars have remained stock.



I hate trying to build a Muscle car on a shoe-string budget. It really sucks.

Nice engine

Congratulations on building such a great engine on a shoe string budget. It is tough, I know. 425 bhp in the Nova body should lead to some great performance #s.

Watch out! The RedNeck is in his element!


I knew you'd end up in here, sooner or later, Matt.
