And I have to disagree with you.!!! In the 60's it was seen in the genre of the muscle cars, not typical sports cars like the MG, Austin Healey, Jaguar etc.
The same could be said for the Ford AC Cobra. Yes, it was a sports car, but really, it was a muscle sports car if you want to call it that.

The ZL-1 motor was found in both the Camaro and the Corvette in 1969. On the street, the Corvette's competition was not woosy British sports cars, but rather American muscle.

BTW, I lived back in the day. In fact, I was a teenager then. I remember well the times and I owned both a Camaro and 2 Corvettes.
