When Did Muscle Cars Start
There’s a lot of debate on the details of what a muscle car really is. The phrase was coined by the legendary Brock Yates after he drove a '64 Pontiac GTO for Car and Driver Magazine in 1964. From that point on, many called any mid-sized car platform with a big block engine to be a “muscle car.” A few years ago, this was widely considered to be cars manufactured from 1964 to 1972; names like Chevelle SS396, Roadrunner, Cyclone, GTO, and many others. Time has a way of changing things, and the definition of a muscle car is no different.
Today, the term muscle car has expanded to cover a wider range of factory high performance vehicles. Many high performance cars were produced in the 50’s with special high performance V8 engines, among other early muscle car parts. The J-2 Oldsmobile, Chrysler Firepower Hemi cars, Rambler Rebel, and Ford supercharged Y-block machines are just a few. The early 60’s featured the bigger cars with the Super Stock style engines like the Pontiac Catalina Super Duty, Max Wedge Mopars, 427 Medium Riser Fords, and of course, who could forget the very fine Chevy Impala 409. The muscle car platform has been re-invented many times and even in the 80’s the venerable turbocharged Buick Regal Grand National still carried the torch. In our current era, Ford, GM and Chrysler are all still playing the game with fire-breathing LS and LT powered Camaros, Mustangs with ultra high tech Coyote engines, and the now legendary Hellcat variations of Dodge's Challenger & Charger.
Muscle cars like the legendary 1970 LS6 454 Chevelle SS came from the factory stuffed full of factory muscle car parts like 11.0:1 compression pistons, solid lifter cam, aluminum intake manifold, square port heads, big valves, and a huge Holley carburetor sucking Sunoco 260 at an alarming rate. Muscle parts like these is what it took to be king of the street. If that wasn’t enough, in terms of the muscle car parts the factory put on, the Big 3 automakers all offered high performance muscle car parts over the counter to make those cars even hotter. Still not enough? The aftermarket did the rest; with the addition of a set of slicks, headers and other bolt on goodies, sub-12 second quarter mile times were well within reach. We don’t want to leave out anybody here; you can bet Ford, Mopar, Buick, Pontiac, Mercury, and AMC had muscle parts in this game too, and which muscle car was the fastest is a hotly contested subject to this day.
What do all of these cars have in common? Everybody wants one, that’s what.
