"Muscle car" might be debatable, but it did go 14.90's on it's first outing, and has been 12.25 with the original engine, so I'll include it here:

Hill climb in Empire, Michigan.
The Z belonged to Fred Meissinger, who was a GM/Chevrolet executive. He retired as the Plant Manager for the Adrian manufacturing plant. The Corvette belonged to Denny Hall, also a GM exec. Denny was head of CPC Advanced Manufacturing engineering when he retired. Photos taken with a Brownie "box" camera.

Yes - Mr Wangers won that matchup, as you might expect, but left too soon in the "Little Eliminator" final round against Dave Strickler. K
