Thanks for sharing. I’ve never knew about them.

I love historical performance cars,no matter where they’re from.

If you get a chance,check out Allpar.com. Tons of stuff I think you’d like. Here's a little more trivia(I wont keep at my derailing) about 2 of those cars. The Chrysler Charger E49(at the top) was a sraight 6 265 CU.I with triple webers. It is faster over 1/4 mile (14.4sec) than the much bigger engined  Ford GT HO (15.2) sraight from the factory

If I had to choose, I'd get The Val(what we call them here) any day of the week....just not in the factory pink, but in HULK green(yep, factory paint!)

It seems incredible that mild (mainly cam grind) changes to last year's E38 engine and the addition of the new four-speed gearbox can have done so much for straight line performance without sacrificing tractability.

'The three-speed E38 was a brilliant enough performer, running the standing quarter in 15 seconds with a best of 14.8 and to 100 mph in 16.5 seconds. A Porsche 911S, generally acknowledged as the worlds best six-cylinder performer couldn't even match this time to 100 mph, putting down 17.1 seconds and getting over the quarter in 14.7. So the E49, which is utterly untroubled to lay 14.4 second quarters and record those 14.1 times to 100 mph is in a realm on its own.'

'Has there ever been a six that went like this? God knows, we thought the Phase Three HO was quick, and its time to 100 mph was 15.2 seconds. What would the Phase Four have done?'

Yep, smashed the Veedub 911s!
