Couldn't agree more. No one back in the day(where I live) left cars like ours stock. Tires, rims, engine and drive train mods, wild to mild paint schemes.
And don't get me going on those dumb azz hub caps everyone and their brother is putting on their cars. They were ugly back in the day and still are.
Ok

Yeah, there’s some of us that would love to relive those days. Times were pretty simple

I like both restored and custom muscle cars. That link brings back some fond memories.
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

I love moparts, but there are mopar sites not as dedicated to trailer queens as this one is. There are 100-s of cool driven cars around for every over done, over priced "correct" car, some that only a mother could love.
As for pics turning up..... If you never want a pic to reappear its simple, never post it on the open web in the first place. But I have seen many of them as well.
STOP POTATO HATE!

None of my cars are restored to stock. What fun would that be. In fact, the Cyclone was stock when I bought all the way down to Fomoco headlights and running points. So much so that I thought the suspension might be dangerous until upgraded. The car is now e-headed, roller motor, running efi, 2500 stall, and 3.70 gears. Doing the barracuda right now and just got the metal done but upgraded to 73+ kframe and suspension, 11" drums in the back, and looking to go with a roller efi motor also. Day 2 is just so much more interesting to me. It was back in the day and is still now.
