Cars have been a big part of my families life. We have always had at least 1 muscle car in the family and most of the time many.
I was brought up with Mopars in the driveway in my teens. This is the brand I own and choose to follow. I admire and respect many other muscle cars and would have a barn full of all brands if I had the means to do it.
Who doesn't like a Vette or a Mustang? How about a 55-57 Chevy? I would like to have an old 55 Gasser. How about a Willys? Wow. I saw two bad ass 40 Willy's at the Woodward Dream Cruise this year traveling together. You could hear them coming for blocks away. This is over all the other muscle that was bumper to bumper. Way cool rides.
I have decided to put my time and energy into writing and documenting my passion for all things muscle car. I hope you enjoy the site and maybe even contribute. Start your own blog here. Once again we welcome all brands. So don't be shy because I am a Mopar owner. I do love horsepower and can't get enough of it!

So does this mean all existing cars? Even our muscle cars? Apparently all new cars and the paint supplied after 2012 have to have 20% solar reflectivity.
Sounds like the chemicals used to make this up does not make a good looking black.
What are they going to come up with next? It is time muscle car and collector car owners to pay attention to your local, state and federal lawmakers. We don't want laws coming out that puts our beloved cars in a crusher.
You can read a news post on the news section of this site for more details.
