The REAL reason to love muscle cars

I’ll keep this post short and sweet, as the picture should speak for itself. The real reason I love my Chevelle is not because it’s fast, loud, and way cool (which it is), but because of what this little guy thinks of it.  This is my son, and at 21 months old he wants into […]

Autocrossing a muscle car – my new obsession.

Muscle cars are good for (basically) two things: Looking Cool Going Fast. This past weekend I ran my Chevelle through the autocross at the 2010 Heartland Nationals Good Guys show in Des Moines.  I’ve never autocrossed before…..but I definitely will again.  Hopefully tonight, tomorrow, and every day after that.  It’s absolute utter joy.  I’ll let […]

Get Your Muscle Car Ready for Summer

As summer of 2010 approaches it’s time to get my ride ready for summer.  I’m a person that likes to set goals, and in January I laid out 7 goals I wanted to accomplish (car and driving wise) in 2010.  I don’t always achieve all of my goals….but this year is off to a good […]

The thrill and terror of driving a real man’s car

I read a lot about fast cars, and I like to drive as many as I can.  I also listen to a lot of TV , radio, and podcast shows about cars, and one of them made a point that seems so simple, but yet so correct, that I really wish I’d thought of it.  […]

Can you steal your car’s soul?

Every now and then when I connect with other muscle car people I notice that we talk about our cars as if they’re people, as if they’re alive, and as if they have a soul.  Bob Smith from Smith Bros Restorations was on one of our most recent podcast guests.  He and his brother restore […]

What bad economy? Muscle cars still sell like hotcakes!

Now that the first round of January 2010 auctions are behind us it’s time to take a guess at what 2010 will hold for the world of classic muscle cars……and my guess is that it’s going to be a great year!  It’s been said that regardless of what happens in the economy, toys will always […]
