Why Mopar

Seemed like everyone I hung out with that had old cars(im my grade) had Mopars 70 Charger R/T,68 Dart 340(probably the quickest car in town),70 Challenger R/T Gold/70 Challenger R/T Silver both were 383 cars one was a auto one 4 speed. 68 Dart 340 white with black stripe(almost bought this but the reverse gear on the 4 speed would not work so parents forbid it),69 Charger R/T 440 727 tranny 4.30 gears green W/black R/T stripe and vinyl roof..only guy that could hang with this guy was the red dart 340 car ran 12.5 on street tires with a sure grip rear that was going bad...used to take this car to Lancaster Speedway in or near Batavia NY to run it. all my friends had them

I of course wanted a 69 Chevelle ss with a 396 never did get a car in Highschool waited till I was in the Army then bought a 70 Charger 500 with a 383 and also had a 70 Roadrunner with a 383 both 727 cars...this was back in about 1985-90.
