Hey Man, I already gave you a welcome over on FEBO and I'm glad to see you're not limiting yourself to just 1 body style. These are some great sites to be involved in and I look forward to hearing about the things that interest you when it comes to Mopars.
Welcome to this site from the Motor City! Probably see you over on FBBO in a few...

Hey Daniel...Welcome!! Great your taking an interest in these old cars...is your family into old mopar iron...or any old iron?

Gotta love it when they start early. Most Usually have "camaro" or "chevel" fever by teen years (although I was immune).

Welcome dude!

:sSig_welcometoourcl........ I have a 14 year old son and he has little interest in the car world. How did you develop an interest in Mopars and old cars?

For everyone who wants to know how i noticed Mopars..
..In Germany it's tradition, that every kid get's a little cardboard cone called "Einschulungstüte" to their enrollment. It's mostly filled with sweets or small presents, and because i always showed interest in cars, i got a RAM in it, with a "MOPAR"-logo on it's rear quarter. So i found the "Einschulungstüte" a few years later and recognized the logo, and asked myself what "Mopar" actually means. I googled it, and after a while i got more and more interest in Mopars and historical drag racing. So that's it.

@detmatt : Hey!
I'm already a member on FBBO.
My name over there is "GreenRuckusCan".

@thrashingcows : Nope, unfortunately nobody in my family owns a Mopar.

@70FuselageImperial : I was immune too. I began with Mopars, and continued with them.

@polara71 : I already explained in this post. Thanks for the interest!

 

[detmatt]

Good story, glad to have you here! Post up some pics of any local or not so local shows you've been to.

It sounds like you'll have a classic Mopar soon!

 

[ECSF-Mopar]

@detmatt : I will, i want to post some photos of the german Mopar Nationals in a few days.

@1978 NYB : I hope so!

 

[1978 NYB]

Is there a website for the German Mopar Nationals?

Ah, then you are a kindred spirit. My very first car was a mopar, I've had many since those days, and my last car will be a mopar.

I blame my father on my being a Mopar man.
Oh, how he loved green/green sedan C-bodies...
There have been days I swear and curse on why couldn't he have been normal and be a Chevy man.

My Dad had a PreWar Studebaker and a 1960 BelAir. From 1967 to the early 1980's he always had big block Mopar Wagons. He had 4 of them during those years. The last one was a 1971 Plymouth Sport Suburban Wagon. My first car was 1969 SuperBee with a 383.

 

[70NPORT]

My dad had a bunch of Mopars too: 63 Plymouth Fury, 66 Plymouth Fury, 65 Dodge Coronet, and a 70 Dodge Polara....all 318 cars, but still mopars. So its definitely in my blood.

The last one was a 1971 Plymouth Sport Suburban Wagon.

I was on the edge of being a Ford guy. Dad only owned one Mopar , I hated it..................at first. No one had any idea what they were creating when that 71 Polara came home in 75.

My Mother didn't start driving until after my brother and I were driving. I had the SuperBee and a couple of years later my brother got his first car, 1973 Duster, 340 Magnum with a console Torqueflite. My mother was digging the Mopar's and got her driver's license and bought my brother's Duster. My brother bought a 1969 Dart, 340 Magnum, 10.5 pistons and 2.02 heads.

Good Luck Daniel. It's never too early to start. My daughter picked up a 68 Javelin when she was 8. It's quite the conversation piece. Her friends Dad is a mechanic by trade and has helped out with maintenance over the last few years.
