Now that is the Prages we know!

A buddy of mine in the Air Force had one of those Broncos, a blue one. His first gear didn't work though, so he always started off in 3rd gear. How does one do that on a manual? Wouldn't it have too high of a ratio and stall? Why not start it off in 2nd if 1st gear doesn't work?

I guess I don't understand the concept behind it.

They were probably geared so low that 3rd gear was about the same ratio as 1st in today's vehicles.

of the 3 in the OP, i'd go with the Cyclone, being a Ford guy.
but if we're going full on badass FoMoCo.....then mine.

1971 Torino Cobra, 429 SCJ

this isn't my engine bay....but it's the same year and same size engine.

Super Beeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

Of those three, I'll take the trans am cause you can at least tune that chassis to handle as well as go fast in a straight line

I guess this if I have to pick one of the three.

 

[Steverino]

I'd also take the Merc . Those Cyclones were highly underrated.

As for a 1970, I'll have a GSX.

 

[mongooz]

if you are picking 1970 muscle cars.....why the heck wouldn't you pick the '70 road runner.....it's the best year they made them

 

[Jbird]

Fwiw I don't care fore the middle grille extension on those '70 Cyclones.

I'd much rather have a '69 Cyclone Spoiler, if anything Especially the Cale Yarborough model.

I remember a guy in high school across town had an orange 1970 Roadrunner with the Air Grabber hood scoop. That car could lift the wheels with street tires!
It remains one of my favorite muscle cars.
