The muscle cars have been pretty much gone for 30 years. If Chrysler will bring them back, they will have a total monopoly on the market. Dust off the old tooling and start cranking out those cars of yesteryear that could do zero to 60 in 7.5 seconds and 110 mph in the quarter mile. Don't modify anything. Leave the 10:1 compression just like it was. Install the Hurst shifter. Sell them with whitewalls. Don't mess with sucess. As for contemporary fuels, there is no problem at all. High test gas is available at any airport. You can buy all the 110 octane you want. As for emissions and crash safety, these cars won't pass. But that is no problem at all. Sell them overseas! There is a huge foreign market out there because thats where the money is. The money went because we buy everything foreign. Now is the chance to sell them something. They won't buy our regular cars because they make the same thing overseas. But they don't make muscle cars and that's where we have them over a barrel. Our Asian friends have been driving 4 cylinder Coronas for long enough and they're chomping at the bit for some bad-ass power. What I say is true because they are buying up our old, beat up muscle cars and paying up to half a million for them! To sell them new ones for a hundred grand will be like selling hot dogs and cold beer at a Dodger's game. Of course, we will drool when we hear that Asians are driving around in new Hemi V-8s with two four barrels and four speed Hursts and roaring dual exhausts. But that's life. We will have to be content with our V-6s that sound like a Hoover vacuum cleaner on 90 volts.
