Mark Stielow just released a book that helps define the Pro-Touring style of Muscle Cars. The book chronicles the build of his 1969 Camaro, "The Mule", which has paved the way for modern pro touring cars. We took some time to talk to Mark about his book and the cars he has been developing at the 2011 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals.

One of the many surviving race cars on display at the 2011 Muscle Car And Corvette Nationals (MCACN) was Len Grimsley's 1964 Plymouth Belvedere 426 Max Wedge factory lightweight racer originally campaigned by Hank Taylor. This car features the original aluminum front sheetmetal, including the hood, fenders, and other nose pieces intended to shed pounds and pick up speed.

The 2011 Muscle Car And Corvette Nationals (MCACN) show featured hundreds of ultra-rare Muscle Cars, and this Petty Blue 1971 HEMI Road Runner caught our eye. It's the only one built with the 426 HEMI in this color, and the car is loaded with cool options. We talked with owner Kenn Funk about what it is like to own this car.

This 1968 Camaro is being built to drive, both on city streets and the in occasional track-day event. To accomplish this, we decided to install a Detroit Speed QUADRALink rear suspension system on the Currie 9+ rear axle assembly. The QUADRALink is a highly adjustable 4-link system utilizing a panhard bar and adjustable coil-over shocks. This design eliminates the stock suspension's leaf spring wrap-up issues, and allows for more precise ride height adjustment and the quick spring rate changes coil-overs offer. The Currie 9+ axle assembly features a new fabricated housing, 3.50:1 gears, a Detroit Truetrac differential, 31 spline axles, and all new bearings and seals for a rock-solid foundation. All these parts will add up to a comfortable street machine that won't be unstable on the track.

The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 has been called the "Holy Grail" of Camaros, as it featured an all-aluminum 427 V8, race-prepped TH400 transmission and 12 bolt rear axle, and they only produced 69 of them. The 2011 Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals held in Rosemont, IL, featured not one.. but 17 of these ultra-rare Camaros. Here, we speak with Jeff Murphy about his ZL1 and the unique restoration showing the car in ready-to-race form.
