Description
A classic car connaisseur talks about muscle cars: THE American take on performance cars, resulting in an all out horsepower war in the 1960s. Cubic inches, horsepower and 0-60 times were the numbers of the days. To tell the full story, the video is split in three parts.
This is part one: early forerunners. Before the 1964 Pontiac GTO, there were a few cars that also claim the title to be the very first muscle car, like the 1949 Oldsmobile Rocket 88, 1957 Rambler Rebel and Chrysler 300 Letter Series. But are they the true first muscle cars?
