Cool

My brother & I will be there! Look for his 69 Coronet 500 wagon, white W/Ramcharger hood. Hopefully, my Dart will be done by then too: Y1 (yellow) 68 Dart 2dr sedan, 360, A-518, 16" Torque Thrust II wheels. For pics, check my profile.

Happy New Year!

Gromski, I've got you by 11 years! After years of raising kids and working too much, I got back into Mopars about 12 years ago. It's more fun now, and most of the youngsters don't mind us geezers hanging around. After all, we're the ones who remember what it was like when real muscle cars roamed the earth!

Hey, not just that Gary. We can learn a lot from the "older" crowd. I'm 25 so I guess I'm still part of the low end, but I wouldn't know anything without some of my Mopar friends who have helped and taught me. When I got my 72 Charger when I was 16, I had no tools of my own, and no Father to teach me anything. I couldn't change my oil or do a simple tune up! Soon after getting my Charger I wrecked it and it had to sit for 8 years before I had the tools and knowledge (and time) to fix her back up. Now that I'm 25, I have $14,000 worth of Mac Tools, and enough Mopar knowledge that it makes me useless for any other topic of conversation. I owe just about everything I know to those who have gone before me, but there is always more to learn. So, here I am, to learn more and maybe help someone younger coming up behind me. Ain't the Mopar hobby great?
