Why Mopar

I would like to know why you guys & gals got involved with the MOPARS. I grew up in a family of ford owners. Then one day when I was ten, my dads cousin moved from California. This was 1970, he was driving a 1969 340 DART SWINGER, 4-speed, 3.91 suregrip. He had bought it new, for the price of $2850.00. He had been racing it at LIONS DRAGSTRIP, & street racing it. I had an instant hero. The best part was when my brother & I would ride in the back, with my dad riding shotgun & his cuz driving it like he stole it! The best memory of this was when a 1970 corvette & 1969 mach 1 mustang was racing. We came up from behind & drove between them & out run both! His Dart had ran a best of 13.81 @ LION'S. The neat part was that he loaded his wife & kid in the car to move back to Oklahoma. How would you like to make that trip with no air & 3:91 gears. Most children drive what their parents drive, my brother & I converted our parents to MOPARS! We are a die hard MOPAR family! So, whats your story?
