You gotta be more specific then that. Are you talking about older cars, like 60's muscle cars? Or are you talking about newer F-bodies and Mustangs? You got 3 companies to choose from, what do you want more information on?

This should teach you most of the basics of all the older Muscle cars... and some of the newer ones as well.

Come join up at camaroz28.com. I'm a mod there too, they'll teach you a TON of good stuff about everything over there. Emphasis on the LT1(93-97 Camaro/Firebird).

Take a look at the website Redneck posted first. That will tell you about all the cars of old and the new generation Mustangs and F-bodies (camaro, firebird).

The thing about having an interest in the 60's muscle is most of these cars out there today look like junk. So if you wanted to buy one of those you might have to spend some money to restore the body to perfect condition.

If you actually find one thats in good condition already, restored and all that, the usual price of that car is going to be $20,000. It could be less, it could be more, it just depends on how rare the car is, the options, and what V8 you're getting.

Home of the latemodel muscle, both Ford and GM. They also have a healthy V8 RX7 community, which is a really good choice if you want to go fast and corner too

Hey, Umm

This thread is over 2 years old. Self, the moderator hasn't posted here in about that time.

So, please don't drag up dead threads.

If you have questions about your F-body post in here Non-Specific or here Camaro
