Killer Mouse was a Z/28 JL8 when she came to Sweden and went as Race Car Roadrace from day one. In 1972 she had a Penske 5000 engine

Sometimes I wish I was born in the 60’s so I could’ve grown up with how muscle cars were back in the day. Awesome pictures!!

You have no idea what you missed. Back in the late 60's and early 70's I took muscle cars for granted because they were everywhere. I can remember sitting on the corner of my residential neighborhood in a lawn chair on a Friday night just to watch all the muscle cars heading out to their local cruises and hearing the dragsters in the distance at North Star Dragstrip. Those were the days.

Only sometimes?

Here's some stories about growing up in a GM family in the Flint/Detroit area in the 60's and 70's (if you are interested):

I was born on '58 so growing up in 60's and 70's was an awesome experience and wouldn't have wanted it any other way. My son was born in '90 and he says the very same thing as you. He has a '69 RS Camaro and a '66 Impala.

The street scene was an everyday occurrence, drive, race, park, repeat. As SS427 stated we took it for granted and didn't realize we were a part of the greatest era of all time for car guys! My wife has said many times, she wished she had a time machine to back to that era.
