With their big engines and heavy frames, classic American muscle cars are built for one thing: The quarter mile.
Unfortunately, regular cars need to do more than just go straight, so you can't ship them straight from the factory to the drag strip. For that, you need some modifications, and '70s muscle car owners happily made them.
Here are 25 '70s machines ready to run a 9 at 180.
