Plymouth Road Runner Convertible, I didn't get the year. The article lists the Road Runner as a muscle car.

DSC_02481973 Plymouth Barracuda. I have forgotten the exact name of the color of this one, but it seems like it was candy wineberry red, something like that anyway. It sure looks good.

The shiny black paint reflects the pavement very well.

See the push buttons on the dash? It's a push button automatic transmission. In the Wikipedia muscle car article, several years of the Belvedere 426S are listed as muscle cars but not the 1963.
