The TotallyMotor Verdict
There's no substitute for cubes, as they say in America, where until the price of oil creeps up a little more, the mighty V8 engine still rules the high-performance roost.
Muscle cars and trucks from a bygone era of the drive-in, drive-through and drive-by, take centre stage now in our TotallyMotor round-up of all that was cool at the Footman James Classic Motor Show, that took place recently at the NEC.
If you couldn't make the show – it was huge and awesome – then these pictures are for you. We'll see you there next November for sure.
