I think all of the High Performance Chrysler Corp cars qualify as the first Muscle Cars. Ply. Fury, Dodge D-500, Desoto Adventurer, & Chrysler 300's. If you compare them to other 56 cars the rest were just regular run of themeal cars . Some had performance options that had to be special ordered. Chrysler cars came std. with their performance engines.
