What made you drive a MoPar?

Here's what got me into Mopars!

I was 12 years old and lived next to a scrap yard. The yard's owner was also a stock car racer and one of his racing buddies owned this Hemi Daytona Charger. One Sunday , he pulled into the yard looking for Larry, the owner but missed him as he had already left. He asked me how long he was gone, I told him as I had also missed my ride to the track as well.

"Come on young fella, hop in, I haven't got all day"
I didn't need to be told twice so in I went.
What an experience!
I looked over at the speedo at one point and we were doing over 130!!

The sound that hemi made at speed was mesmerizing and stayed with me to this day...

Here's a pic of that same car which is still around , fully restored.

Cheers!!
