As the '60s turned to the '70s, automakers stepped up their game to give the people what they wanted. Bigger, better, badder muscle cars with nothing but displacement and driver daring to make them go.
Even when new fuel regulations neutered the industry in the mid '70s, manufacturers made sure to keep up appearances.
