The 300C was the first to offer 100mph performance to the common man, so a strong case can be made for it as the first muscle car. You could also count the first 409 Impalas if you wanted.
Or 427 Galaxies .. for that matter. The thing of it was, big engine in little car. The Impalas, 300Cs, and Galaxies offered big engines - but they were heavy cars. I don't think muscle cars really came about until they offered a big engine in a little car. (383 in a Tempest .. )
