Muscle Cars

Celebrating the coolest cars ever made, nothing like the sound of that engine when you turn that key.

Muscle car is an American term used to refer to a variety of high-performance automobiles. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines muscle cars as "any of a group of American-made 2-door sports cars with powerful engines designed for high-performance driving." A large V8 engine is fitted in a 2 or 4 door, rear wheel drive, family-style full-size car designed for four or more passengers. Sold at an affordable price, muscle cars are intended for street use and occasional drag racing. They are distinct from two-seat sports cars and expensive 2+2 GTs intended for high-speed touring and road racing.

Wallpaper Description:

USAF Rescue Pilot TC Cunha has owned his ’68 drop-top for over 18 years, but it was only recently that the project kicked into high gear. As TC explained, “About 18 months ago I was on an overseas assignment to Africa where I was surfing the Internet looking for ideas for the next evolution of my Camaro. I really wanted to buy a ’10 SS, but as luck would have it, my wife said, ‘Finish the one in the garage first!’ So, being a good husband, I heeded her advice. That was when I started reading your magazine and getting the ideas I needed to bring my baby into the 21st century!”

Under the hood resides an LS2 backed by a 4L70E transmission. Baer brakes provide plenty of stopping power while a host of widgets from Detroit Speed Inc. help the SS handle. The work was expertly done at Screamin’ Performance by Brian Johnston. And like most projects, what was expected to take just three months morphed into a year and a half due to body damage and rust found along the way. TC relayed, “I’m happy to say that upon my return the second time from Africa, project Pro-Crastination (my wife’s call since the car has been an 18-year journey to this point!) was ready for me to pick up and drive home. Though we still need to wring a few things out, it’s my daily driver and in the last four weeks I have put 500 miles on it. To say I have a huge grin is an understatement!” To see more build shots click on over to screaminperformance.com.
