Favorite I HAVE owned? Maybe a surprise to some but I'd have to say my Seafrost Green '68 Chevelle.

Favorite I WISH I had? A Shadow Gray '70 Nova, Black bench seat, 4 speed powered by either an L-78 or an LT-1 !

Re: My Favorite Musclecar
 

Bought my 71 Nova at 15 with McD's money. Drove it all through highschool and then some. Had a worked 307 in it, care of yours truly, that ran like a top! Had a lot of fun with that car! Mulsanne blue looked great under the flourescent street lights! Sold it for a survivor 6 banger with three speed on the column. Had a lot more fun with that car seeing that it was stick and didn't need tires every other month. Now I have a total of 4 Novas! So I have to say the 3rd gen are my fav. Up to 72 of course. Nothing like the power to weight ratio of a big horse small block!

My favorite (aside from my Camaro), would be my old college roommate's Royal Bobcat '69 GTO Ram Air IV. Who knew back then that Royal was something other than the local Pontiac dealer. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

My favorite that I have owned is 70 440-6, Shaker Cuda. All hell breaks loose when the outboard carbs open up.

My favorite that I wish I had is a 69 ZL-1 Camaro in Silver. A close second would be a 69 Hemi Daytona

Re: My Favorite Musclecar
 

My hands down favourite was our COPO Chevelle. Other than normal wear items, the only things I had to replace was one broken valve spring, and a water pump in close to 200K miles of driving, not all easy either. I replaced a clutch disk at about 100K miles while replacing a throwout bearing. The performance was pretty decent for its time. Before that we had a 1966 SD396 4 speed Beaumont and a '68 Ram Air automatic Firebird. Our L78 car would come in at number 4. Would love to have the Beaumont and Firebird back but they seem to have totally disappeared. Couldn't have grown up at a better time. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

If Vettes count, it would be my '66 L72 4 sp, 4.11, knockoff, side pipe equipped coupe. Sold it in 1996 or so.

Modified musclecar would be my '67 Fairlane 500 hardtop, Wimbledon White with Seafoam Green interior, 796 hp 514" motor, C4, T bolt hood, 10 point cage, etc. Still have it.

Stock type musclecar will probably be my 70 RAIV GTO, M21, 4.33, no power anything! Just bought it; will see it in person next month when I return from Iraq.

'66 SS396 Chevelle, fast, perfect size, high quality interior, above average build quality, popular timeless styling, great color/trim offerings, just a plain damn good car. Even the thrashed high mile one I drove as a kid had virtually no rattles and was not falling apart like a lot of the competition in the $1500-$2000 range. While rust did eventually get them, they were not rust buckets. I always thought '66 and '67 Chevelles were the next generations '55-'57 Chevy. Also, ask any old used car dealer and they will tell you they were good merchandise all thru their life...........and they still are.
