I own a 1968 GTO. It steers & rattles like a dump truck carrying gravel. It's driving ergonomics suck, the 4 x drum brakes lock with little warning, it swills hi-octane stuff like Ted Kennedy @ an open bar, and a Subaru WRX will beat the pants off the old goat in every category except for burning copious amounts of tread off bias ply tires.
But you know what... I've gotten more high-fives from septuagenarians to youngsters driving my 1968 antique than I ever did driving my old British "classics". Mine's a daily driver - lot's of them out there and selling for a lot less than a new Honda Civic. Parts availability for old muscle cars are vast and they're easier to work on than an old ox cart.
