During the height of the muscle car era, Ford, Chrysler, GM, and AMC offered the motoring public a number of vehicles which, in addition to being street legal, were designed to meet the specifications necessary to campaign race series like NASCAR, NHRA drag racing, and SCCA Trans-Am. Arranged by race series, this colour history examines the design, technology, and marketing of these "homologation" specials and the competition versions that inspired them. Modern colour photography of showroom-quality examples provides an unprecedented view of remarkable machines like the Boss 302 and 429, Chrysler Hemi, Plymouth AAR 'Cuda, Dodge Challenger T/A, AMX Javelin, Mercury Cyclone Spoiler, and Plymouth Superbird.
