So how far back does your Mopar experience go?

My experience goes back to about 1968 or 9 when I was riding home from church with my grandfather in his 64 413 New Yorker he pulled by a couple of the local hot rodders and they were in Chase of us he dialed up that 413 courtesy of a push button dash with the AFB screaming they couldn't gain on us he navigated the corner on our country road I watched in excitement as they spun out behind us,it was the most awesome thing I had ever experienced up to that point, my grandmother did not feel the same way LOL

LOL Not sure I should tell this story, but after our 52 DeSoto was long gone, one of the Mopars Dad bought was a 1967 Hemi Charger, in the fall of 1970. Some time later, Mom and Dad and my much younger brother were in the Charger on I-285 around Atlanta - back when there was nowhere near as much traffic as there is today. Mom was driving at not too much over the speed limit. A GTO zipped around her at full throttle, so she took out after him. He had a huge running start, so it took a while, but she caught up to him and went around. My brother, sitting in the back seat, peered over Mom's shoulder at the speedometer, saw the needle hit 150 as they were going around. (3.23 gears)
