Mopar Vs Gm Vs Ford

I was a Buick GS guy before switching over to Mopars 1991. As far as finding and purchasing parts for Mopars I am in heaven compared to trying to find and purchase speed parts or restoration parts for Buicks in the 80's. Being I was a GM guy I also had my share of Chevs and wouldn't go back to them for any reason. I would however own another Buick, great cars. People say that the GS is the same car as the SS Chevelle and they are wrong. They are the same platform but are not the same car. When I had my '70 Stage 1, two life long buddies each had a '70 SS396 and when either one drove my GS they both commented how much tighter and solid the car felt, not to mention it was faster.

To me Mopars are the best of both worlds, they are popular enough that it is fairly reasonable to get parts for but they are not to popular enough to be the "everyone has one" crowd. I have always been of fan of the "underdog".
