A Mechanical Symphony

[Peter Jalkotzy]

I have been engaged with the automotive community from when my father drove Mustangs as his daily driver. Through the early 80's I learned that I wasn't cut out to be a used car salesman. Forty years later and I'm becoming more deeply engaged in what has become a global pastime and passion valued at $25B per year. And continues to be my passion and my go to for whiling away hours dreaming, day-dreaming, and having new car experiences. When I grew up, prior to driving age, I remember, Hemis, and Shelbys and other cars of the era, the Pink Elephant was King - a Chevelle SS LS6 I believe it was. And I love stories, like the stories of the Black Ghost, or Lil'Red. I look forward to engaging with the community.

Welcome...and I also remember those LS6 critters.
My hemi Road Runner found them especially tasty.
Actually had more trouble out of those Stage 1 Buicks, truth be told...
Not that I ever participated in non-sanctioned public displays of horsepower or anything.

In the Mopar category - not at this time - and not looking - I am interested in what the market says and these forums usually have the best insight and info. Thanks for the inquiry - much appreciated!

not at this time - currently cruising the market to learn and see what insight and info I can soak up from the discussions. If I were looking, it might be a Daytona or a Superbird, and I always like to dream. My interests are in documented, original and unrestored cars.
