Welcome to a very special episode of The House of Muscle presented by PEAK, the seventh episode titled, “The O.G. | Musto’s ’68 Dodge Charger ‘MR. ANGRY’.”
When does a car transcend its role as a mode of transportation, and when does its collection of parts evolve into something deeply emotional? When does a car become more than just a machine? For Mike Musto, it started 20+ years ago with MR. ANGRY, his oil-slick black 1968 Dodge Charger. From road trips across the U.S. to competing in Brock Yates’ One Lap of America, this car has been his partner in countless adventures, races, and unforgettable memories.
Its owner was, and arguably still is, a motorhead with the charm and tenacity of a high functioning neanderthal and a lack of mechanical knowledge that acted as the perfect excuse to ditch the worry and simply drive. Because of this, the old Dodge has crossed the United States six times, ventured into different countries, competed in Brock Yates’ legendary One Lap of America, and even starred on a reality show. It’s raced on countless racetracks, cruised on unforgettable road trips, and most importantly, has been the catalyst for forging lifelong friendships.
On this episode of The House of Muscle, presented by PEAK, Mike Musto takes you through the mechanics of the car that changed his life, and the one that launched him into one of the most rewarding careers imaginable:
