What got you hooked on A-Bodies anyway?

My dad bought a '65 Valiant station wagon with 225/6. That was the first car I learned to drive in.
Probably the big turn on for me was when my high school friend bought a brand new '67 notchback Cuda with a 273...we went everywhere together in that car.
Then, another high school friend bought a '69 340 4-speed Dart. Whadda car that was in it's day.
My first very own A-body was a brand new '73 Dart Sport 340. I drove it about a week before it was stolen from a movie theatre parking lot...never recovered.
I then bought a new '73 340 Duster 4-speed to replace the stolen.
Have always loved the a-body cars. Probably have had about 12-15 of em over all these years.
Presently, there are 3 of em in my shop: an original '72 340 4-speed Demon, a '72 Swinger that started life as a 318. Both need restoring now.
And the car I'm presently working on: '73 Dart Sport that started life as a 318, but now looking at a built 360 for it.
