For me in the "muscle car" years -  1964-1972 I would have to say nothing strikes me as more ugly than the 1970-1972 Mercury Cyclone...   something about the grille just makes me want to never own one.
1968 Dodge Charger - 6.1L Hemi / 6-speed / 3.55 Sure Grip

2013 Dodge Challenger R/T - 5.7L Hemi / 6-speed / 3.73 Limited Slip

1964 Dodge Polara 500 - 440 / 4-speed / 3.91 Sure Grip

1973 Dodge Challenger Rallye - 340 / A-518 / 3.23 Sure Grip

now wondering, the question is about the worst, not the ugliest... why ppl answer the ugliest ?

69 Charger with a six banger.  Doesn't get any worse than that.

A "Pony" car can certainly be a musclecar. Musclecar= Small/mid/large body with the biggest damn engine offered by a perticular manufacturer.

"Worst" musclecar can mean a bunch of different things to different people. Like ugly, weak, poorly built,etc...

Because looks are always part of the equation. It may be a subjective category but it's still a consideration.

That's why we're seeing 68 grills on 69 chargers.  There's an easy fix right there!  :icon_smile_big:


Tomorrow is promised to no one.......drive your Charger today.

If we are going by the definition of Muscle car, I'd have to say the last of the GTOs in the mid 70s, 75 I think it was.  Nothing more than a Ventura wearing lipstick.

I agree here. Pontiac still had the Trans Am though.
Ford? The Mustang didn't qualify since it was 4 cyl and V6 for a few years.
AMC? The last of the Javelins had really funky styling.
Buick, Olds.... Nothing there. Chevy had the Camaro and the Vette. They were slow but they handled well.
