What got you into Mopar?

My first car was my late Grandpa's '61 Galaxy 500 because I was 17 and wanted wheels and it was offered to me by my grandma for $500 when he passed. I had the Mopar bug as stated earlier as a Richard Petty fan (Loved that Petty Blue RR). Back in '76 after six months of the Ford I tried to by a '71 BB Charger to replace the Galaxy but my dad wouldn't co-sign for a hotrod. Instead he did for a '72 318 Satellite Sebring Plus. Beautiful car but after a few months I was putting a 383 in it and he actually helped me manning the hoist. It was cool moment. I never asked him what changed but wish now I had. Thanks Dad- miss you every day.
