What car got you into Mopars?
My dad had a 1966 Coronet 440 convertible, red with a white top, with a 383/727 and it was fast as hell. I think I was 10 or 11.
He had just finished restoring it and we were out for a drive with the top down, when some drunk dipshit in a first generation camaro T-boned us. The entire right side from the door back was trashed. I smashed my head on the door and was dazed. The drunk asshole took off, and we chased him. We caught him in two blocks.
Next mopars my dad had were a primer grey 68 Barracuda fastback parts car for a red 67 Barracuda convertible 273 followed by a red 68 Barracuda convertible with 318.
Best friend in high school had a 66 Charger with a 383/727. His sister had a 67 Charger with a 360.
Dumb friend had a 63 or 64 4 door Ford Falcon. Since he was retarded and insisted on Ford, he should have had the 65 2 door Falcon.
Another moron friend had a 64 Nova.
Another smart friend had a 65 Dart GT.
My brother had a red 1970 Buick Le Sabre convertible and a 71 240Z.
I got a 71 Challenger in 88 or 89 and dropped in a 440 from a cop car Dodge Monaco. That Moanco had so much so much smog **** on it, the 273 vert smoked it. Another 71 challenger parts car. Sold those around 91 or 92. I don't miss the Challenger. I didn't like the E body cars much.
Then I bought a 67 Barracuda convertible with 225 fixed it up and then sold it for a whopping $4500 in 1993. Dumb dumb DUMB!
Now I'm driving a 68 Fastback with a 318/904 and 7 1/4. Fixing it up some every paycheck. Plans are 383 stroked to 3.75", haven't decided on cam yet, hyd flat or roller? trick flows, dual plane manifold 727 with TF2 shift kit, probably going to get a Dr.Diff Dana 60 (It's only around $500 more +/- than the 8 3/4, why pay for a rear end twice?) I am driving it as my daily driver, and will be after all the work is done. Race at Sonoma Raceway on the Wednesday night drags a couple times a month during the summer.
