I spent many enjoyable times driving a '68 R/T Charger w/440 Magnum motor and Torqueflite tranny, but it was gold not black ...black is beautiful

Somebody above just commented on the strong top end performance of some of the muscle cars ...on many safe and professionally supervised highway runs ( wanna buy the Brooklyn Bridge?) even this big block 440 Charger could not hang on top end with my '67 XKE Jag Roadster that I had at that time (inline 6cyl 4.2 liter DOHC and weighs 2600lbs) which would easily shoot to 160+ while the Charger was starting to choke up a tad over 145. Of course the Charger would kill me to 80mph.

Thanks for the positive comments. It's definitely not a traditional muscle car, but it is highly enjoyable anyway; also it's not the fastest thing on the street by any means, but faster than most. I am not a fan of body kits, in fact I hate most of them, so mine is all stock body work including those rear brake duct openings. Since I roadrace mine a few times a year (that small last pic in my link above is me on one of the roadrace configurations at Pocono), later this winter I am adding ducting from those stock side ducts so it dumps more air directly on the center of the rear rotors, plus adding two other ducts from the front bumper openings to the front rotors.
