My Mopar craze,started '87. Was working ,as a gas pump jockey,and going to college. Done some small block Camaro crap,for learning. This Yellow 70 R/T Challenger ,rumbled in.Big block,cross ram setup. For a 19 year old,eye opener. Worked for him (still do some),and still a friend. I don't have many.

He's trouble.

I think the first time I lost my marbles over a mopar, was collectively. Over by my school bus stop, there was a beat to crap, '70 Charger in primer gray with rusty cragar S/S wheels on it, curb feelers, a chain steering wheel and no grille.

The girl who drove it also had a primer gray '70 El Camino SS. She wanted to sell the Charger for a whopping $1000. Said so on the windshield in shoe polish, right next to "runs great".

My mom wouldn't have it, until she started answering my "what is that car?" questions. She told me that all of the ones that I would point out happened to be Chrysler products.

After I did some of the math and read a lot, I was sold. I knew right then, what I was after.
