I know the 60's and 70's are becoming farther away from the present everyday and I was curious if you think that the cars of that era would be forgotten. I myself love Mopars and Chevy's and now that the original owners and people of the eras are starting to die and get elderly, I was wondering if when the people die who owned these steel beasts that the cars would die with them.
I'm a fan of loud, bold exhaust with the jacked up rear end and thick tires in the back. But the new generation is completely reversed to that. We have quiet zoomers with lowered suspension and the cars basically rest on the ground. We favor more rim than tire and four cylinders rather than eight. Sure the old cars had their flaws but they were still fantastic in their own nature. I myself am an owner of a 1973 Dodge Challenger. It's black and holds a 340 with headers and glasspacks out in back. I have L60's on the back that engulf 14" Keystone Klassic rims. The interior is blacker than night covered with vinyl and eminating with its own fine odor of the 1970's. Everytime I go out in it I am rewarded with multiple compliments.
Does anyone share this passion for the old, "death trap" Mopar, Chevy or Ford? Being an adolescent fascinated with our age of technology, I'd love to create a game to refurnish this almost forgotten era of cars but I am still wondering if people would be interested in it or not. The games that have came out have attempted to recreate this era of American muscle and when we were on top of the car industry but have failed to strike my fancy one bit. They leave out the screaming sound of the cam revving up into 7000RPM range and the sound of the idle with the headers "pinging" away when it's waiting to jump off the line (Which it doesn't in the game
). They have done such a bad job at times that they don't even get the information about the car right! This motivates me to get into gear and make a respectable American Muscle game.
Please give me your input and keep it nice.
