For those interested, tonight @ 9 p.m. central time on the History channel, is an hour long show on the history of the Muscle Car.

I watch the History channel all the time, this must be a new "modern marvels" have not seen this one before! I hope it is accurate.

I believe it was part of the "Male Macho Month" series or something like that.

At my age, my testosterone level is "running on empty" but I still love those old muscle cars!!!!!

Highly disappointing in my opinion. It should have been called a tribute to GTOs. Not even a mention of Camaros.

Waste of a good video tape. Chevelles got all of 1 1/2 minutes, Camaros none. I agree with the title change.

I thought it should have been John DeLorian (sp) the early years.

I agree with you all. It was good but it should have been called "GTO" history. (the DeLoren comment above was not far off either) Photos of cars and the drag racing were nice but unfortunately, it centered on Pontiac and Chrysler mostly. They barely mentioned Chevrolet except for the 67 Chevelle. Being pro Chevrolet, I felt they could have at least mentioned the Rat Motor or the COPO (considering Floyd has so many Chevy supercars in his collection). With so much history of Musclecars in general, this should be a series, highlighting each car manufacturer per episode; that would be a true overview of the history of all Musclecars. What do you guys think?

I think they should have interviewed a few people on this site! They may have gotten a better slant on what muscle cars were all about. The people that produced this program have probably never seen a true muscle car! It seems they let Wangers run the show.
