If you're in your forties or fifties, it's likely your original car was a real American muscle car. Many people all through the United States are hunting for outdated muscle cars to restore. The big motive is that not one of the Big Three are making these awesome machines anymore. The main question is who'll start manufacturing them again?
Ford and Chevy continue to produce Mustangs and Camaros after their introduction during the sixties. The concern happens to be that these cars at present are unlike the powerful muscle cars they once were. Will any of us ever be able to experience a car that has a 327 together with a 4 barrel carburetor again? Sadly the answer to this question is probably never.
The main problem is people prefer to fix things when they are really not broken in the first place. For instance the 1967 Camaro which is one of the most well-liked muscle cars ever created. However, if this car was so popular why did Chevy stop turning it out and why have they not made that type of model since. The same goes for the 1966 Mustang, which is another classic that Ford just decided had not been worth making.
Here's the place it gets to be remarkable. The VW Bug was Volkswagen's most preferred model back in the day, so they reproduced it many years after the first version was no longer in production. This new Beetle sold very well despite its ultra modern design. If they'd only stuck to the original style, they may have sold more. Nevertheless these folks can't see past the end of their noses and they keep imagining that newer is better.
One of the big concerns is this. In the event that Chevy ended up with a the latest Camaro with a 327 engine and 4 barrel carburetor, and if they left out all the computer equipment and built the car like they used to, how many of you would want one? I've actually asked hundreds of people in recent times and they all say that they would go out an get one. Just why hasn't this happened? If people want the good old days, when is some motor company planning to give people what they want.
When will Ford or GM believe that this may be a good time to build cars like the good old days? I imagine that they may become hot sellers. But until these firms start taking note of their customers, you'll have people looking for old muscle cars to restore.
Maybe at some point a muscle car buff will be the CEO of Ford or GM and decide to start making muscle cars again. Unfortunately the head folks at these companies have got this belief, that if they think they are creating new and better muscle car, people will want it. In my opinion we ought to just go back to the way that things were.
