thats not a muscle car! thats a luxury car.


We used to call these boats. Tuna boats. Whaling vessels.

Cadillac Eldo

The only car that is wider than it is long

The only car that must be moved periodically on hot days so it doesn't sink into the pavement

The only car that needs overweight and overwidth permits just for daily operation

The only car that must have overload suspension engaged just to load aboard a normal amount of passengers

The only car with a convertible top so large it was in danger of atmospheric pressure failure at normal highway speeds.

Just to rub in a slight truth, "back in the day" my 440 sixpack Roadrunner got 13.8 MPG with the windows up and the "add on" air turned on at 70 mpg. A friend's extended family had caddies, and NONE of them could even do that well, plus that 440 would pass them like they were in reverse.


Sorry, just HAD to have some fun

I guess most of the cars in the parade were muscle
but maybe not that one :)

I think all it's muscle has turned to flab.

Love the Shelby, although it should be white with blue stripes (and no stickers) to be perfect.

Nice pics Marie, the black and white works well.
