I'm bringing a hotrod back myself.
1971 Fastback. Previous owner had it repainted maroon with a Mach1 stripe kit, so when I have it repainted to mineral grey, I will have it restriped the same. 460 with Cobra Jet heads, Crower roller cam, all MSD, Hooker Super Comp headers, Holley double pumper 750cfm. 9" Ford. C6 with reverse pattern. Redone the entire interior myself to all black with the silver striped Mach1 seats. VIN lookup said it was Ginger/Ginger (cringe).

RE: For the old school hotrodders - List of hotrods from the past
My first car was my only real old school muscle car. It was a 1972 Dodge Carger Rallye with a 440 4 barrel...This car was bought new by my Father when he came home from Vietnam and was also the year i was born 
I took it over in the late 80's and we sold it in the early 90's for a nice profit but if i had it today it would probably be worth over 100k since only like 500 of them were made...
other old car was a 78 camaro but that was far from a classic
