Power, speed and performance those are the three major traits of a
muscle car. When first produced, muscle cars were just pretty darn amazing because they
combined the efficiency of a lightweight, mid-sized body with the performance of a high-
power V8 engine and special design features that further increased the cars? acceleration
capabilities. Because muscle cars topped all other vehicles in terms of power, speed and
performance, they were ideal for racing.
Muscle cars were produced from the mid-1960s into the early 1970s, but the
production of such beasts fell drastically due to a number of factors. First was the
controversy over whether it was wise and responsible to make such powerful vehicles
available to the general public, primarily due to road racing. Because muscle cars were
often used irresponsibly, liability relating to them was pretty high which forced
insurance companies to increase rates for insuring muscle cars. Emission control
requirements intended to curb pollution also played into the picture making it near
impossible for automakers to produce muscle cars that met the standards they had to adhere
to.
Needless to say, the muscle car industry changed quickly due to these
influences. Demand decreased because many ?would-be? buyers of muscle cars couldn?t fathom
paying the enormous insurance rates for a high-power vehicle and automakers had to meet
the challenges presented by pollution control standards.
Since muscle cars were produced for a limited number of years, they are
valuable items for collectors and are still highly desirable to those who enjoy racing or
desire a quick, powerful, mid-sized car. Since the decline in the production of muscle
cars, some automakers have attempted to bring the muscle car era back to life by producing
powerful vehicles that resemble the legendary muscle cars, but in my opinion, they don?t
hold a candle to classic muscle cars like the GTO, the Road Runner or the Chevelle SS.
It will be interesting to see how the history of muscle cars plays out.
Will present day automakers renew production of true muscle cars that are fast and
powerful? Will there be enough demand to make muscle car production worth it to them? Or,
will muscle cars continue to be limited to those classic models that were produced in the
60s and 70s?
Classic muscle cars are pretty amazing pieces of machinery. One that is
restored and in cherry condition is really worth a lot of money. As time goes on, there
are fewer muscle cars available which makes them even more valuable to classic car
collectors and muscle car enthusiasts.

Still Running Wild
Sarah McBride
e57
Its name means a small yet hardy wild horse that could most probably be a descendant of the Arabian horses. And for many years since its introduction, this vehicle has lived up to its name and charged through the automobile world and has been the top selling sports car for nineteen years straight as well as holding the best selling convertible of America spot. It would be quite surprising if most people would not know what this vehicle is. Certainly, this vehicle is the Ford Mustang, who has made its first entrance to the public back in the year 1964. And even if it has stayed that long in the market, it still is one of the most popular sports cars the globe over.
This vehicle has been the icon of American vehicles and performance. It holds a bold style, a brawny and strong engine, and excitement that finds its source from its rear wheel drive. The 2006 Ford Mustang has a V6 engine that the company dubbed as the “Pony Package”. It holds 18 inch wheels, new colors, a custom grille with fog lamps, and an interior upgrade. This vehicle has been made available in different trim models that include the standard, the deluxe, and the premium package. As per the last year, this sports car has been acclaimed as the Most Significant Vehicle, which is an award that is given out by Edmunds.com. Also, the Ford Mustang received the Official Car of Summer award given this time by the Outside magazine. It also raced its way up AutoWeek's and Ward's Auto World's list of top 10 cars and 10 best vehicles respectively.
Because of the Ford Mustang's colorful history, this sports can still owns the signature long hood and short rear deck along with its C-scoops in the side, the three-element tail lamps, and the galloping horse badge that is located at the center of the grille that was has been its natural identity in its entire history. What has been added up for the 2006 Ford Mustang is that it now holds Pony front fender badges, a lower door tape stripe, carpeted front floor mats that has been badged with a special brushed chrome “Mustang” logos, and a rear spoiler. It also features four-wheel disc brakes that has the anti-lock braking system and traction control. One of the new accessories and customizations that a 2006 Ford Mustang owner could have is its instrument panel that, as the first in the industry, is color-configurable and which owners could choose to mix and match lighting at the touch of a button. With this, owners could create more than 125 different color backgrounds for their instrument panel.
Shopping for Ford Mustang parts and Ford auto parts has been made easy by online stores like Auto Parts Deal. Auto Parts Deal comes handy with all sorts of parts and accessories for Ford Mustang and Ford vehicles. Ford Mustang owners and consumers can work their way through the easy to handle collection of quality and affordable Ford parts.
