RE: Best Mopar muscle cars ever...according to you...

Hi all -

I really hate how much publicity the late '60s cars get compared to the cars that really started the MOPAR revolution, the '62 to '65 cars. Until the Roadrunner very few kids had even heard of Plymouth or Dodge. It's usually that way at the shows too.

I couldn't find their definition of "Muscle Car" but if the '68 Hemi Cuda and Hemi Dart were included then the max wedge cars certainly should have been. And they were marginally streetable.
