Heheh, I have that CD...it's sitting next to my somewhat rare Depeche Mode - Master & Servant CD.

(the slavery whip mix version; it has only 5 tracks, but loooong ones)

1970 was a better year for cars IMO - the last year of the Detroit hi compression muscle cars. 1971's had a lot more emission controls. I still have a 1970 Camaro Coupe that I bought new in July of 1970. :lol:

As regards "The Final Countdown" - check out the Norther (Finland) black/death version here:
- great variation on a classic song. And Europe played at Jaxx in Virginia a few years back - very nice.

I have a thing for 67' cars. 1967 Shelby GT500 (1968 GT500KR), 1967 GTO, 1967 Impala SS and many other cars... but you can't beat the 1971 Hemi Barracuda. ;)

Yes you can....1971 Trans-Am 455 H/O is faster, just not worth anywhere near as much though


And i can top that too...1970 Buick GSX stage 1.....fastest bone-stock factory muscle car period.
 
I'm sorry but the 69 boss 302 and the 69 shelby GT 500 convertible were greatest american cars ever. of course thats just my opinion, all feelings considered......
 
So we have gone from being "rolled" to talking about 80's music to talking about 70's music to talking about cars????:think: :lol:

I almost have to read the thread from the start each time just to make sure i'm still following it correctly...:shocked:

What about the '69 Boss 429? That beast was quite a handful.....of course a 69' Mach I SCJ was faster than the Boss 429, though.

Indeed the boss 429 was a power house, however the weight of the engine was unfavorable for road racing. I had 4 60's mustangs and a 70 mach 1. But I thought the body lines of the 69 fastback were beautiful. My opinion 67 to 70 muscle cars were way ahead of there time. The 57 chevy did absolutely nothing for me.

Remember the fold down rear seat in the 67 mustang fast back, Quckly adopted by the Jap's

The 66 and 67 charger had them too, i believe.

Yes they were picked up by Dautson the 1st mfg of the 240 and 280 z. Remember how small they were.

Oh, yeah. I had a 72 240Z. Awesome car. It was also the *only* car i could never figure out how to get some trim in it....it was just too tight inside of it.....i wound up outside on the hood:lol:

Was it crown molding or base board trim, it had to be hard to get trim in a small car like that. I would always borrow a pick up if I had to pick up wood.....:shocked:
