Ford VS Chevy........again?!?

[Mercury]

I think the Shelby GT350 counts as a Muscle car, and its first generation.

I consider my 64 1/2 with a 289 a muscle car, but thats because its been built up.

I also conisder the 99+ Mustang GT's and Cobras Muscle Cars.

I though muscle car was dependent on the wieght of the car, in relation to the size of the engine and power output. I know the early Mustangs and Camaros werent considered muscle cars back in there day, there classified as pony cars.

Muscle cars were cars like the intermidiates. Examples. GTO, Chevelle, Fairlane, Comet, 442, RoadRunners, Chargers.

I dont know, Guess we need to think up a formula for considering what a Muscle car is know a days.
