Would you build a 4 door muscle era car?

no flat paint,,HA primer count

[Mater]

i like 4drs just becuase they tend to be cheaper and at least here in better shape

[BigBlockMopar]

No 4-doors from the muscle car-era for me either. Instead I've built a 4dr muscled-fincar instead

[DanStokes]

BBM - your fleet is EXCELLENT! I'd love to get over there someday and see your stuff.

IF i HAD A TIME MACHINE. OR HIT THE LOTTO

I'd get a 70 chevelle wagon.. or a 67-68-69 impala wagon 427 please

4 doors = parts car

[milkovich]

Something just seems more "international" about 4 doors since overseas the whole "2 door that's as big as a 4 door for no reason" thing didn't catch on... but then neither did 2wd SUVs.

I like the fact that a four door is an "open canvas." Since all the purists aren't going to like the car to begin with, you aren't constrained by anything. Build the engine you want, throw the wheels and suspension you want on it and go. It's like a huge rolling middle finger to the Barret Jackson types.

Plus, more doors are almost as "metal" as vans. \m/\m/

4 door wagon? absolutely. 4 door not-a-wagon = parts....

It really depends on the model. C-body Mopars, some B-body GM, the Fox LTD...Now, if they never offered a coupe it's alright.

I don't mind them personally. Nobody confused this for a stock 5th Avenue.

DIDN'T THEY MAKE 2 DOORS OF THIS.. remember a few passing though the dealership

[BangShift McT]

They did, in two variations:



'77-'79, the "boat tail" coupes (my old '78 LeBaron pictured)



and '80-'81 (A friend's nearly-completed 408ci powered Diplomat)

Ok what is the cutoff date for muscle cars? I say 72 and a bunch of the cars being talked about are later than that.

I think it all comes down to what you have, what you need, and what you want it to do, nothing is out of the question for guys like us. Just when you think you've seen it all - someone comes up with a nun - runner, or a cts - spider!
