35 Muscle Cars To Bring Back (And 10 To Forget About)

1976 Plymouth Volare Road Runner

Plymouth had some interesting thoughts when they attached the “Road Runner” moniker to the 1970 Plymouth Volare. People have to understand (apparently Plymouth didn’t) that the Road Runner is an iconic muscle cars. Few names conjure up “performance” like the Road Runner. Yet the 1970 Plymouth Volare Road Runner would get dusted by a modern Honda Civic, taking more than 10 seconds to hit 60 miles per hour. The Volare was a decent car for the late 1970s but certainly never earned the Road Runner name and was a poor performer by muscle car standards.
