It's done. We did it. Find someone around you and give them a big hug and a high-five. We've picked an ultimate Muscle Car in our March Muscle Car Madness bracket, and it's the 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429. For those of you without any strong religious convictions, you may wish to try praying to it.
March Muscle Car Madness: Battle Of The Bosses

March Muscle Car Madness: Round Two, Day Four

March Muscle Car Madness: Round Two, Day Three
Yesterday was all about blowouts; none of the winners from yesterday got less than 70%! You folks were pretty decisive even if (in the case of the Rambler) sadly mistaken.
March Muscle Car Madness: Round Two, Day Two
We're in the thick of March Muscle Car Madness now, with the secret Jalopnik underground muscle car proving ground a haze of thick exhaust and littered with the greasy parts of the losers.
