how did you get your mopar?

In 1979 my Dad owned his own auto mechanic business, and one day the orginal owner pulled in, and the car was burning oil. The guys buddy did a valve job on the 273 that went bad. The guy was pissed off, and as a joke my dad said he would give him $400.00 for it, the guy says SOLD! My dad fixed it up for my mom, who hated it, because it was too fast too loud and the young guys kept crowding around it at the grocery stores, that I remember as a kid. Finally at 16 I begged my dad for the Dart, and he sold it to me for $1.00. He knew I would take good care of the car, as he always did his. So it has been mine for 25 years now.
