Re: Perhaps a little off topic...

LOL,, yeah I think it is too,,, feels like it when I smash the throttle anyway,,,,  but yeah,, the point is on the GTO,, even though the Lemans/Tempest had the same body,, when you ordered a GTO, the engine came with it.  When you ordered a Sport Fury, it came with a 318, so the 383 was another check mark.  But later, when you ordered a GTX,, that wonderful 440 magically appeared.  I dont know if chevy or ford ever did have an instant muscle car designation ?? 

I still think it started long before the gto in any case.

I have heard that train of thought regarding the GTO but in my view it quickly unravels when you consider the same body was also available as a Lemans and Tempest, and an engine line-up starting with a 250 I6 as well as a 326 v8. I equate this to the Savoy / Belvedere / Fury / Sport Fury with line-ups from the Slant 6 on up.

And P.S. Yeah baby you got yourself a muscle car !
