Glad to be going Mopar!

[Going Mopar]

Kind of funny how I got started but will give you the highlights of Going Mopar!. Always have been a GM guy with a bunch of 66 Super Sport Chevelles and GTOs until I was with my friend tom and he had offered his 69 Hemi engine for sale to a guy, which surprised me that he was selling it. Lucky for me the guys wife said no and I instantly said I would take it. Had it built and needed a car to put it in and I found a clean 69 Coronet close to home and now its a running and almost on the road driving car. I put a Dana 60 to go with the 4 speed tranny and now on the home stretch on driving it. Its easy to see the fascination with these cars and glad to be going mopar!

I was never brand specific...I drove whatever I gravitated to, corvettes, mustangs, chevelles, firebirds, Camaros,Buicks...it wasn't until about 4 years ago that I realized I never had a mopar...or a big block. My co-workers husband (now one of my close friends) has a 70 Charger R/T 440 pistol grip 4spd, a 70 Road Runner 440, a 76 duster that he races...so he helped me buy my 1st mopar.
As I went into the local car show circuit...I realized the types of people that usually attached themselves to certain brands...(yes I am generalizing/judging) not all...but usually-the die hard Camaro/Pontaic guys,etc. tended to be standoffish...I got hooked by having something that is not "every other car" at a show...unless it's a mopar show lol. AND I got hooked by the family feel of the mopar guys. Being the black sheep has always been okay with me...
So welcome...there are some great guys and tons of information/advice to go along with it!
