Where I live used to be about equal number of modified Mustangs and Camaro/Chevy products (almost no Mopar) but GM just kind of disappeared. See more modified Corvettes than Camaros.
Son-in-law used to own a business called ProStreet Motorsports that specialized in modifying LS-engined vehicles - engine swaps, turbos, nitrous etc but all GM cars. They did good work but closed three years ago for lack of business. He now does V8 into BMW engine swaps. (Other son is currently in Austin doing a Mercedes V-12 into 1981 Mercedes SLC engine swap for a daily driver)
Most younger guys if they modify their cars at all seem to gravitate to Mustangs.
(I bought a new Mustang in 1966 but wasn't impressed)
