Average age of Mopar Maniacs.

Also in the 51-60 group, but not by far O:)

First car,at 16 years old, was a 74 Duster bought at the original Manheim Auction. A family friend had a used car business and took my father and me. My dad let me walk around and pick it out. Paid $400 for it. 318 automatic...but it had a great paint job!

I was driving it in the mountains of PA when the temp gauge started rising, I headed home about 10 miles away. When I got home and turned off the key, the motor kept running! My dad stuck a broom handle into the fan to stop it. SOOOOOOO, the next day I found a rusted freeze plug...replaced it with one of those nifty rubber ones, filled it with water, and it started right up!!!!!! Drove it for a few years after.

My dad owned ONLY MOPARS. I took my driver's license test in my dad's Plymouth Sapporo!! The first car I remember was his '66 Barracuda and the reason I have two of them now. He owned a '74 or '75 Valiant Brougham that was built like a tank...he loved it. Also a Volare', New Yorker, Horizon, Scamp, and more!
