20 of the Best Old School Muscle Cars

13. Ford Falcon 260

The Ford Falcon, Nash Rambler, Chevrolet Corvair and Plymouth Valiant competed as compact cars, all introduced around the year 1960. The 1958 song "Beep Beep" by the Playmates made fun of the aspirations of these compacts, telling about a Nash Rambler driver who was keeping pace with a Cadillac no matter how fast the Caddy drove. Ford used characters from Charles Schulz's "Peanuts" to advertise this small car. It sold well and was in production from 1960 to 1970. It was widely modified and converted by hot rodders and drag racers and still is a popular project car.
