secret behind mysterious for many people do not know to
what point or where the name emerged.
For probably think the majority that the muscle
car is any car is strong, but the car like the
Ford Mustang, which is one of the most important symbols of the
world muscle car not a car excessive force or with a high

then this belief was the first to label those of Mustang.
If what does the term muscle car in particular?
Beginning of the muscle car in order to identify closely to
the world of muscle car and what is the origin of that
label, let's go on a tour of U.S., especially during the
beginning of the second half of last century, which was characterized
by a life well-being and luxury for the United States had
no oil and the time is no problem, prompting the western
society to look for speed and power in all vehicles used
by and allowed for a new generation of engines eight cylinders with large capacities litters to
emerge on the scene with force.
With love Americans to review the capabilities
of their car and challenge each other, centered round performance for
them in the capacity of those cars on the acceleration
and access to the maximum speed possible while providing a
great deal of comfort and expanding at the same time, which
is what makes this generation of cars, despite his
strength excessive does not
care systems Comment sports, which won him the
capacity to deal with the catastrophic turning points.
U.S. car race was limited in terms of competition

and also started the car to improve its
capabilities slowly to take more care systems, suspension developed
and improvement of their performance on the circuit until
they reached the ability to compete with some of the sports
cars that were not strong enough to share a day the
same way.
Older models of American cars
So today remains a concept muscle car is linked to everything
that emerged from the American cars in the era of the fifties the
thirty years that followed, even new generations of those
