Man, this poll is all over the place... 2-seaters, 2+2s, and full-size muscle cars, some with engine specs, some without.... But, still, i've gotta write in my all-time favorite- the Granatelli/Paxton 1960 Chrysler 300F Special Flying Mile car

They haven't made a decent looking Corvette since 1977, the last year before they slapped a curved rear window on it. Bah!

In the early 1980s I had a roommate who had a 69 Camaro. Vrooommmmm sweeeet.

I cannot truthfully answer when you do not have the 71-1/2 Chevy Camaro with the split grill, on the list. Though the 69 is fine it is not my pick.

Not to compete with Diane here{she has exceptional/refined taste}.....but as a collector/connoisseur of late 60's, early 70's muscle cars, hands down my choice is the 67 Corvette, tri-power 427cid 4spd car.

In my current collection :

1969 Chevelle SS 396{single Rochester 325hp} Turbo 400 with 3.73 geared 12 bolt. All options

1971 Corvette 454 LS-5 M-21 4spd 336 rear end - Coupe all options car

1969 Corvette 427 {390hp} M-21 4spd 355 rear-end - Coupe all options except air-cond

1972 El Camino {non SS} 350 w/turbo 350 trans 308 rear-end Vinyl top - all options

1960 Chevy Apache Truck 283 w/ 3spd manual w/overdrive 2spd rear-end

1969 AMC AMX - 390 {315hp}w/ Borg-Warner Super T-10 410 posi -Go-pack, all options car

1969 Javelin SST - 390 {315hp} w/Borg-Warner Automatic 354 posi -all options car

1983 Jeep CJ-5 - Chevy 327 Jeep 4spd with conversion kit 33x10.50's with a slight lift - never seen the mud or sand.

1984 - Volkswagen Sirocco Wolfsburg edition 1800 cc 5spd.

All cars except the 1969 Javelin are fully restored and numbers matching. The Javelin's only modification is the 390 was swapped for a built 401cid - The original 390 {disassembled} remains in my possession.

I'd have to say the 82-92 Firebirds are my favorite. But that's due to the fact I had a midnight blue '82 Firbird that was a blast even with the weak 305 engine. Although I have to admit to a bit of lust for the very recent Corvette Z06 cars. Got to ride along in one on a track laid out on a run way. By the time I was thinking 'ok this is where my car tops out' the vette was shifting out of 2nd gear.. and hitting the slaloms at 100+mph. No idea how fast that thing got up to, I was to busy blissing out.
