Amongst the wide range of Buick cars built in this period there were some muscle cars for the enthusiast. These were the cars that added glamour to the Buick name. From being front-runners in the late 1960s emissions controls and tightening safety regulations gradually emasculated these cars in the early 1970s. The oil crisis of 1973-4 finally killed off the muscle car genre altogether. This book is a compilation of road and comparison tests, driving impressions, model introductions and performance data.
