You weren't there back then, were you? I was and I can tell you that those pigs didn't hold a candle to what we have available today. They are best viewed through rose colored 20/20 hindsight glasses.

They look better, and sound better, but they aren't anywhere near as good as what we're driving today. I had several cool old school rides way back in the day (Mach 1, Cuda, Challenger, Charger) and for their time, they were bad ass. 12.5:1 engine with dual quads on a tunnel ram, running real slicks, shit, I'm surprised I lived to tell the tales! LOL! One good cruise in one of my old hot rods would send most of the younger ones here running for cover, desperately searching for a car with power steering, power brakes and air conditioning.

Of course not, I am 30 but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate those cars.
