    Surprised the 72-73 GTS didn't make the list. These cars are pretty underrated though.

    ugly as they are.. that little car will easily smoke a stock V8 Maverick. And once the wick has been turned up with more boost and a few hotrodders tricks?.. it's an easy 13 second car.

    I know there were some street racers who even dipped into the 12's running stupid boost on bone stock bottom ends too. Slicks required of course.

    Actually.. now that I look more closely.. the Maverick is about the slowest car listed here. :cry:

    Number 2, the 73 GTO. I have always liked them but they are nearly impossible to find. There is a 74 LeMans in town with a numbers matching 400 4 speed combo that I have wanted. It's rusty though and sheet metal for these is tough to come by as well.
