What was your favourite "Muscle Car" ?

Tough one for you people, especially the American fellas among us. Mopar, Chevy or ford?.

For me, as an Englishman my absolute favourite muscle car is an AAR Cuda, preferably a 70 in Green. Although they were not as popular in the day, I just love them.

If I lived in the USA I'd have one of these in a heartbeat, even if it meant selling the Hako to get one.

Now, I've done a couple of restorations in my time, but this really is a level of skill and involvement that goes above and beyond.

Back Australia in 1973 I had a metallic blue 1968 Mustang with the 390 c.i motor. Boy, could that thing go but the suspension left a bit to be desired. I loved it. 

Sold it (more space needed) for a 1967 Ford Falcon GT, a classic Oz sedan and the first in a line of hot V8 sedans from Ford and GMH.  

We thought they were so fast but when I look at their performance data now, many recent sedans beat them.

Here's another favourite of mine - 1970 Chevelle SS 454; there was a fellow in my town who ordered one of these with the LS6 option, 450hp with 4spd gearbox and 4:11 posi differential, and I have never seen a car before or since that could lay rubber like that car could:
