I dunno. I suspect that the classic 70s muscle cars are objectively beautiful, or at least as close to objectively as is possible in something like this. Just look at a 69 GTO, or a 70s Charger or Challenger or Camaro.

Oh, I won't object to them being beautiful, I'm just noting that as vehicles, adult me is less than enamored with them. While I like how classic Mustangs look, I have zero desire to ever own one again. I still own a 240z though, and while it's been mothballed for a decade, I still dream of getting that back on the road. That's a wonderfully fun car to drive.
Ha great points, and I suppose that's why I appreciate the Resto-Mod movement of taking gorgeous hardware (69 Camaro in my case) and re-working it with modern tech. Engines, suspension, brakes, tires...ahh! I hope you get a chance to re-visit that 240z and if you ever want to kick around some new life ideas I'm game. Shouldn't be too hard to find me and connect, cheers.
