Lots of people can recollect their first car, and if you're about 40 or 50 years old your first car might have been a real American muscle car. All these autos have are responsible for people searching all over the United States for old muscle cars that need renovation. The main reason for this particular interest is that nobody is making these types of cars anymore. The big issue is when is someone planning to make a real muscle car again? They also need really cool Rims.
Chevy and Ford are already releasing new models of Camaro's and Mustangs ever since the 60's. The problem tends to be that with each passing edition, they move away from the ferocious power of a muscle car to something more scientifically advanced. Will there ever be the next car that's got a 327 and a 4 barrel carburetor? The depressing truth is we probably are not going to have one ever again.
Here's the problem, people are so swept up in improving things they ignore what was already perfect. For instance the 1967 Camaro that is certainly one of the most preferred muscle cars ever created. Even with its popularity, Chevy chose to stop making this particular version. The same goes for the 1966 Mustang, which is another classic that Ford just decided had not been worth making.
Here's the place it gets to be interesting. The VW Bug had been Volkswagen's most well-liked model back in the day, so they re-introduced it many years after the first version was no longer in production. While the the latest Bug sold great they would have sold more if they simply went back to the old style of Bug. However these folks can't see further than the end of their noses and they keep imagining that newer is better.
Here's a little something to consider. If perhaps Chevy ended up with a the latest Camaro with a 327 engine and 4 barrel carburetor, and if they omitted all the computer equipment and built the car like they used to, how many of you would want one? I've asked hundreds of people throughout the years and the reply was the same: they would definitely purchase one. So why hasn't doing this materialized? If there is a desire for something that is back-to-basics, won't the car companies listen?
When will Ford or GM determine that this may be a good time for them to build cars like the good old days? I imagine that they will become hot commodities. But until the big companies realize that there is a demand for these types of vehicles we are going to be forced to keep looking through the junk yards and rebuilding the classic American muscle cars.
Perhaps eventually a muscle car enthusiast will be the CEO of Ford or GM and decide to start making muscle cars again. As of today, the current leaders simply think adding new technology will make a better muscle car. It's probably a better idea to simply get back to your roots.
