Yes, there's something for everyone!


Some of the folks who have been around a while...and lived through adjusting solid lifters, endless carb rebuilds, etc now prefer their muscle with modern technology...that runs flawlessly, gets way better gas mileage and has way better performance.



Why can't you have the best of both worlds?



Take for example Ken Tibor's 66. He's put over 33,000 miles on it since completion and driven it from coast to coast. I dare say there's not many folks with original drivetrain factory muscle that will do that. I do know a few that do, but they are the exception. Ken has the best of both worlds...the looks of a classic and the reliability of new tech!

I think that muscle cars should be driven, which is why my 66 Chevelle got 28,000 miles put on it in the five years I owned it...in the rain, too!
