What do classic muscle cars and PB&J sandwiches have in common? Two things:
they're American as hell and everybody loves them. 

You don't have to be a car fanatic to appreciate the style and the performance
of classic muscle cars. They are a shining testament to a bygone era in car
manufacturing.  The phrase "they don't make them like they used to" might be too
dramatic in most cases, but it's absolutely true for muscle cars. 

Don't get us wrong - we love modern muscle cars and sports cars. But there is
just something special about cars such as the Pontiac GTO or the Plymouth
Barracuda with their simple lines, boxy bodywork, and brawny V8 engines. 

And if you are as nostalgic about these iconic automobiles as we are, you will
love this ultimate muscle car quiz! From legendary nameplates to lesser-known
limited edition models, we will cover some of the most influential and beloved
vehicles in history.

The car in the picture (my picture) is a 1955 Chrysler C-300 and had a 331 CI
Hemi with 300 HP. In 1959 the 300-E had 380 HP 413 CI Wedge Head. The first of
the 300 series not to have a Hemi.
