Hey I know nothing about cars and I know the chances are slim that anyone here would know but I need some help. I am working on this story and I want one of the characters to be driving a car that is cool but tough, I am thinking of something in the 1970s muscle car verity because I like the way they look coming head on, they always make me feel like there is someone behind the wheel who shouldn't be messed with. Here is the problem it needs to have a little bit of space in the back because the character has to shove a bad guy back there and drive off at one point in my story.

If anyone here knows anything about cars and can come up with a make or model that would work it would be a huge help, thanks.

Thanks!

I'll be going to the library tomorrow morning and I will check out those clips then.

This is all a really big help, thanks.

1970 Chevelle SS 454. I don't think it gets much meaner than that.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas
