@Jake DoesntLikeU My grandfather owns a 70s nova SS. Has never driven it. he bought it as a pile of rust and restored it to all original. Now i get him not wanting to drive it in the town he lives in. People don't know how to drive there. But for years we've all been telling him he should drive it, take a road trip with it after all the work he did on it.

The "Ford options story" puts me in mind of a friend who's mother let him do the options page on the '66 Nova Wagon that she purchased brand new. He checked off every "HO" (I'm pretty sure the motor was a 327 HO, basically a 'Vette powerplant) and rear-end/suspension upgrade option lol. Had a sleeper/tire broiler when it arrived. One day he was cutting donuts in the parking lot of the local burger drive-in while all his friends watched, and his Mom walked up (while he was going 'round mind you!), jerked the door open and snatched the keys! From then on, whenever he and his buds were getting up to stuff that was "questionable" and they wanted to get a rise out of him, they'd say "Hey man, here comes your Mother!", which never failed to make him look around to see if she really was! True story. Rest easy MagicBird...

What he told on the show that was not in this video was, one day Jay was looking for something in one of his father's drawers and came across a speeding ticket his father had gotten in the car, for going 120 mph. Jay's knowledge of all his vehicles and motorcycles is amazing.

It warms my heart to hear his "Father and muscle car" story. I think (Me included) if you grew up in the 70s-80s your 30 something dad at one point had an old car that was in the V8 muscle range and you remember fond trips in it and you absorbed the energy both it and your father was sharing with you. It saddens me to know, that that type of childhood memory is going away now and our kids of today won't know that feeling of driving with your dad in a car that made you feel tiny yet strong at the same time. Miss my dad and that car.

When I was a junior in high school, I loved the Olds Toronado when it first came out. I used to draw it all the time. All my notes, from when I was supposed to be taking notes in class, were covered in doodles of the car. Instead of listening to the teacher, I'd be concentrating on the Toronado sketches. That's probably why I got "C"s in those classes, and I blame the car for that. Jay's Toronado is the car I would have wanted. Same color. Those upgrades he's made are astounding. REAR WHEEL DRIVE!!

I'd would have loved to hear stories about Jay growing up from his dad's point of view. I can hear it now "I remember the time he tricked me into getting a car without a muffler. I thought he'd grow up to be a mechanic and after he got that comedy stuff out of the way he did become a mechanic. "

I love you Jay & everything you stand up for! Classic muscle deserves a voice and you represent it well. Nothing compares to your steam collection, but your 20th century muscle car collection is impressive without question. I love what you bring to the modern muscle car collective.

Jay said the 440 was a better street engine than the Hemi, which is true. But I speak from many years of experience when I tell you that the BEST Challenger/ Cuda engine was the 340. Far more powerful than what Mopar said, much lighter in the front end for superior handling. Best muscle car from the muscle car era, IMHO.

Would be cool. When I was 18 I met the girl who became my wife. She was driving a 1986 Trans-Am. She also owned a Bandit Trans-Am. Later we got a 1985 Trans-Am...beautiful arctic white one. Great days. She is still my wife 30 years later and we have a Mustang now lol. We are never going to grow up.

Daehawk Good for you man. Best said "Life is too short to drive boring cars." Average people dont pay attention to how much they drive. Why not make it something fun rather than a chore? I'm 17 right now. I drive a modded out jeep wrangler but next year I have to give it back to my dad (it's been mine through high school) I plan on buying a 69' challenger or a lotus evora when my time with the jeep is up. I've been saving up some time and still have a year to go and at this rate I'll get one. I hope to never own a boring POS daily driver. Its better to sacrifice some creature comforts for a nice car in my eyes. I'm glad you find enjoyment in cars and found someone who does too.

Vintage snowmobiles are huge in Canada and northern U.S. ... very similar to muscle cars...There's a sense of nostalgia..plus late 60's early 70's was the golden age in snowmobiles.

They really look overloaded with cheeseburgers to me. Like a big bodykit. Don't think they'll ever shape them the same way again. Because someone bought a new hellcat and drives it to work doesn't make them the coolest ever. Bringing '70 Challenger to work really shows superior intelligence and sass and style. There's NOTHING like classic cars. No airbags, no EFI, no abs, no traction control. Bare bones MUSCLE CAR
