We found the first hot muscle machine for our SEMA Trends issue, and it's an Oldsmobile!

We put out the word that we were looking for the coolest muscle cars that are planning to be at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, and we already got a really great lead: the '71 Olds Cutlass 442 from Kevin Oeste of V8TV. You hardly ever see Oldsmobile projects, and when you do they almost never pack Olds power. This one, called Project S71, has 422ci Olds motor based off a rock-solid DX diesel block. It's also fuel injected and turbocharged, meaning it's no slouch either.

We'll be catching up to it at the SEMA show, and you'll see more details as we capture them. In the meantime, we're still looking for more muscle machines from SEMA to feature in our March 2013 issue. Do you have one? Is it cover worthy?!
