Muscle cars are 1970s to 1980s performance-oriented cars. These cars have decreased in production due to the low demand. These cars have been in low demand since the 1990s due to the Japanese cars being more economical while offering comparable performance.
Owning a muscle car as is a popular hobby; because of this, a variety of old muscle cars are available for buyers at auction sites and in local or internet ads. An owner will post a list or an ad with a short description about his car and the amount he believes his car is worth.
Age of car, number of owners, whether an engine was changed, and mileage are all important factors when choosing a muscle car. Additionally the car should be inspected by a mechanic for rust damage, engine operation, transmission condition and drive train condition. These are costly repairs that should be deducted from the price of a car.
Test driving a car before buying is important; this is even more true for used muscle cars. Problems may not be obvious until the car is started and driven. Interior rattling, transmission and engine responsiveness as well as the feel of suspension should be noted during the test drive.
