Every cruise on a summer's day is made better with the top down, whether the wind ruins your hair or not.
But muscle cars aren't always built for cruising, they're made to shred some rubber and rule the road. Fortunately the 1970s had a few models that could do both and do it stylishly.
Here are 22 1970s muscle convertibles with both power and style.
