Vintage muscle cars are large beasts, and that's a good thing. Big tires, wide bodies, and massive displacements all mix together to make an unforgettable experience.
That means you can stuff some pretty obscene horsepower under a 1970s rusted hood, with nothing but a cutout to let it breathe.
Here are 28 pics of vintage muscle cars showing off their brawn.
