How did you become addicted to MoPar?

My story's a bit different. I'm actually the only "car-oriented" person in my family; since I could walk I was obsessed with mechanical things, including fans, vacuum cleaners, lawn mowers, R/C cars, go-karts, and finally actual cars. When I was 7 or so my dad got an old '83 Buick Riviera (not much, I know) that got me interested in old cars with big engines. When I was 14 I asked my mom to get me a book about muscle cars and at first I was into '70 SS Chevelles (yeah, I know, typical newbie attitude). Then the new Charger came out and I thought it was pretty cool; I started reading about Hemis and the old Mopars and learned how advanced Chrysler engineering was back in the muscle car days. The final inspirational moment came when I was 15 and met a guy with a 440-powered '65 Coronet "Super-Stock" lookalike. He took me for a ride in that, doing burnouts and holeshots and whatnot, and I was HOOKED. I made a vow to myself that my first car would be an old Mopar and some day I would have something just as fast as that Coronet. Almost three years later, and here I am with my '70 Duster 318 getting my hands greasy and draining my bank account.
