1969 Camaro Z28

The third car is made by a legendary automotive company. This company is famous today for their trucks. But back in the day, they were known for their muscle cars. The company. Chevrolet. The car. Camero.

The Chevy Camero had many engines. One of the was the 327 cubic inch V8. Camero had 290 horsepower. It also had a duel 4 barrel exhaust installed already. These exhaust pipes were in fact the least restricted by Chevy at the time. 

The 0-60 speed was 7.4 seconds. Total weight for the car is 3,765 pounds. With it was a fresh take to mach the Mustang at the time and it closely resembles it in speed. Next is body style.

The Camaro had real wheel drive like the competing Mustang and Chevy's Nova. The Camaro also had a four wheel configuration. Like the Mustang. Now we are on to everyone's favorite. My personal rating.

In conclusion, the Camaro has a better performance. That is why its rating is .................................................................................................. an 8.

1967 Pontiac Firebird

Our second car is from a company known for his car. They were then old by GM to stop manufacturing cars. The company Pontiac  went out in 2010. There famous car is the Pontiac Firebird. And it was a great car.

One of the engines was the 326 cu in Pontiac V8 HO. The HO in the engine means High Output and gave it better performance.This engine features 280 horsepower . It also allowed for a duel exhaust and a four cylinder carburetor. The engine was last sold in 1967.

The top speed was 115 mph. and is 0-60 speed varied from 5 to 10 seconds. And the total weight of the car is an average 3,000 pounds. An transmission was a three speed. Now on the design.

The design was recognized as a Pontiacized Camero. Bu it still has its unique features. the two door was supposed to be a continuation of the Pontiac Banshee. It has what is called a "coke bottle design." This gave a sleek design t a car. And that is part of the Firebird legacy. 

In conclusion the Firebird has a better performance than the Mustang. So my personal rating is an 8. 

1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1

 Today we will be talking about the first car in our line up. This car was made by Ford and came when muscle cars were getting to be popular. It is the 1973 Ford Mustang Boss. 

The car's engine was Ford's 351 V8 Cleveland engine. This was a engine part of the 335 engine family. The engine family was a small block V8 engine that was built by the Ford motor company. The were nicknames Cleveland after the factory that produced them in Cleveland, Ohio. The engine gave the vehicle 288 horse power.

The top speed for this mustang was 86 mph. Its 0-60 time was 9.9 seconds. Today, this cars speed really isn't that good compared to others. It's fuel economy was 17.1 miles per gallon. Now time to the model design.

The most noticeable feature is the NASA inspired hood.It had two hood scooped. The enlarged bumper was added to meet the requirements of safety. The rear bumper was added to something called impact absorbing extensions. This caused the bumper to stick out from the body.

In conclusion, the speed of the mustang is not very good, but the engine seemed to have a bit of power. With the various additions to the body gave it a unique body. My personal rating for the car is a .......  7.
