Here is someones attempt to re-create the decal in vinyl. Not a bad effort at all.

Good pics Dave. I have to say, the moniker 'Western Sports Special' conjures up all sorts of dandy images of a mean machine with a unique look to it (be that through badging, decals or options in a T/A sort of way).


Unfortunately (and I know I'll get slagged for this) its a boring looking car.

How can anything painted Sublime and fitted with a big block be boring?

Did I mention there were only 381 built with the 383 engine out of less than a total of 1500 WSSs made?

I know it sounds weird, but I am going to open a BIG can of worms now by asking 'would you class that as a 'muscle' car? That depends heaviliy on whether all a car needs is a big block to be a muscle car, or whether iths the whole package that defines it. RR's and SB's are deffo muscle cars, as are 340 equipped T/A's, AAR's etc. but that WSS just doesnt shoult muscle at all. White Wall tires is a BIG nail in the coffin.

Plenty of 1970-74 Mustangs came with white wall tyres. And smaller V8s than this. You saying the Mustang is not a muscle car?

Not all of them, no.

Hot water here I come

Stopped at the bottle shop tonight and a 396ss Camaro pulled up behind wearing thin lined whitewalls. Cool and the gang! (but not original....And a redline would look better!)

to a bloke in an 1100 fiesta i have a muscle car....Hemi inside n'all

depends what the competition is...and what kind of racing the man in the street is into

Your car is a different animal altogether Dave I reckon. Your motor is a muscle car. Its spec is a dead giveaway.

...oh, I forgot to say 'in my humble opinion'.

Everyone knows a REAL muscle car has a black interior.
