      I've always been a Mopar man. Can't help it. And even though I prefer Plymouths, I'd have to say my favorite Mopar of all time might just be the 1962 Dodge Dart. It just had some of the most unique styling I've ever seen on a stock car. And with a 440 six-pack under the hood, this thing could really haul ass.

      I love your purple '64 fish! You should join the EVBC (Early Valiant & Barracuda Club) e-mail list: http://groups.google.com/group/evbc-list I sold my '65 Barracuda back in March. I miss it, but at least I have a good reliable daily driver now that I don't have to work on every time I turn around. I still love old cars, but they're just not practical for daily use, especially with a family and stuff. Xändu Langbogen said:

      My favorite one is just a little fish:


      Still in my garage, two years older (a 64 instead of 66):


      I love it... (still, even as I want to sell that one)
      Nobody loves it as it's no bigtail car of the fifties, no muscle car of the seventies... just a tiny, little mid-60s A-Body..

      Wanted to post some pics of my new ride. Got her back in April in Kansas City. It's an '07 Dodge Magnum SXT (couldn't afford the Hemi V8 R/T, but this one has plenty of get-up-and-go!):

      I have respect for the Mopar camp, if it wasn't for you guys we would never have developed the Cammer motor. Long live the Thunderbolt.

      Have to agree, I'm a mopar man too. I don't have any cool photos cause they don't like people taking cameras to the shows these days, Don't understand why? Anyway here's a link to an interesting site about A-bodies: http://www.valiant.org/

      I agree,mopar is the true spirit! Unfortunately it's not a european business philosophy.In Italy one of few car inspired in this way has been the Fiat 130 (1972-74),with a more sober design and 3000 cc. engine and it's not been a big success. Not even know if there are mopar stores here,but I post you this link of an american cars shop in Milan, so you can see what I mean (watch prices where they're showed!).It's more easy to find race cars,rallye models. http://www.vintageamericancars.it/index.php Fiat 130 Coupe
