Okay so there’s no way to know for sure, but the writing style is unmistakable.
1976 WAS THE LAST YEAR OF TRUE MUSCLE CARS TO MOST PEOPLE
Who would claim that? And to so shamelessly claim that in all caps...wow.
The whole text has a...strained relationship with the truth.
SOLID MYBE ORGINAL PAINT—STRAIGHT AS IT COULD BE—1976 WAS THE LAST YEAR OF TRUE MUSCLE CARS TO MOST PEOPLE—BOUGHT THE CAR NEVER EVEN TRIED TO FIRE IT UP YET,DON,T REALLY WANT TOO SELL IT BUT MOVING OUT OF STATE—SO IF I SELL IT OK OR NOT IS FINE TOO.
As the owner of a mechanically identical 1976 Pontiac Sunbird (hello LeMons!) i can tell you...there is NOTHING muscle about the buick 3.8L in these cars. 105hp. 4K redline. Yeah. Also, i’m guessing he’s actually got a 5-speed in there but just doesn’t realize it since its a dogleg, with first down and to the left.

4k redline? That... Sounds really underwhelming. Except for the dogleg!

There’s a lot of candidates for “last year of the true muscle car”, but 1976 isn’t one of them.
Love the “SOLID MYBE ORGINAL PAINT” Yeah it’s gorgeous, bud.

When I think “Muscle Car” the first thing that pops into my head is the year 1976. The second thing that pops into my head is “v6"
Thankfully, it’s listed as a “ 1976 CHEVY ” because why else- chevy only made one car that year and it was this hulk of pure quality unadulterated muscle.

I’m 99% sure that’s 5 years later than most people feel Muslce cars died.

It’s one step past “Little rust for the year” when referring to a an XJ, old Honda, or basically anything 20-40 years old.

“Bought the car but never even tried to fire it up” — would anyone in the world ever believe this statement?
