Rookie Guide: How to Buy a Muscle Car Part 1
I thought it would make sense to answer the big question that seems to come up more often than not when shopping for a muscle car: just how do I buy a muscle car anyway? For some, there’s not a lot to it – it’s just love at first site, a price is agreed upon, […]
What if you could never drive again?
I saw a recent advertising campaign for the new 2010 Mustang. It featured a gentleman that had lost his sight years ago in an accident. One of the things he missed most was the thrill of driving, so Ford created an opportunity for he and a few other vision impaired people to drive the new […]
Vintage racing muscle cars rock!
There may not be a car person on the planet (much less a muscle car person) that does not agree: vintage racing muscle cars rock! Specifically, 1960’s and 70’s era NASCAR and Trans Am cars. Why?

Will our kids drive electric muscle cars?
A question to ponder for those of you that love the feel and sound of a high-horsepower V8 engine: will our kids drive electric muscle cars? Could it be that in a few years when you type “muscle cars for sale” into Google that electric cars will be what appears in the results instead of […]
A Muscle Car Too Good Looking to Die?
I’d like to pose a question this week. In light of the Cash For Clunkers situation, is there such a thing as a car that’s too good looking to die? Specifically, is there a muscle car that was (in it’s day) spared because it was too good looking to snuff out? I think the answer […]
Mustangs! Mustangs! Mustangs!
This week I am at one of the biggest horsepower shows in the nation (and perhaps the world) and am surrounded by Mustangs….but it’s not a car show. It’s the “EAA Oshkosh Airventure” show and is heaven-on-earth for general aviation nuts. Oshkosh is a week long airshow and celebration of the latest and greatest in […]
