How did you become a Mopar A-body Enthusiast?

I got started with a 67 Dart GT with some kind of V8 (probably a 273) back in the late 70's. The engine gave out so I swapped in a 340 from a 72 Challenger. Somehow I let that one get away from me to my eternal regret. Then in the early 80's came a 73 Duster /6 auto. This one got me into the Mopar Hall-Of-Shame, as I'm one of the few people who ever destroyed a /6. This was due to being an idiot and running it out of both oil and water about 20 times apiece before I did it for the last time. :BangHead: 1994 comes around and I buy a new Ram 2500 diesel that I still have today.

Fast forward through another 20 years of life, and I retire and realize I can finally go find a fun car to build and drive. This gets me to my 66 Valiant, which is slowly getting the pile of parts installed to make it a fun little street runner.

Mopars are like a disease, if you get it you just can't get enough of them. Great thread, and great stories!
