American Classic

Overview
American classic cars are American manufactured automobiles, typically 25 years and older, that have become collectible due to various factors. If the car is older than 45 years, the Classic Car Club of America determines it an Antique Car. The majority of American classic cars were produced by the "Big 3" automakers, which include GM, Chrysler, and Ford, as these were the largest players in the market at the time. Furthermore, many American classic cars tended to be from the "Muscle Car" era, in which performance cars were fitted with the powerful engines at affordable prices. The Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro are examples of such cars. However, there are many American classic cars that do not fit this description.
