1974 Chevrolet Nova SS
The Chevrolet Nova SS was an affordable muscle car that was a hit back in the ‘70s. The SS was used to say that the car had a performance package and ran faster than its trim levels. Chevy, however, chose to get rid of the performance package and only used the SS badge for an appearance package. This meant that the automaker did not have anything special or new to offer. In essence, the consumers had nothing to look forward to apart from the badging and black grille.

1978-1983 Dodge Challenger
In the ‘70s and ‘80s, Dodge brought the Challenger back for a short span of time. Sadly, the car company made a number of mistakes over the years. In 1974, it was a strong car on the track, but it still got discontinued. When Dodge made up its mind to revive it in 1978, it was rebadged as a Mitsubishi and given less power. Dodge only remedied these mistakes when it was updated in the late 2000s.
