Greetings to all you Mopar Die Hards and B-Body Lovers, my name is Bob from south central Texas. Just recently joined FABO and got here as soon as I could as well. I can't say enough good things about the two sites, great people wanting to share their knowledge, passion and love of the greatest group of cars of the muscle car era. (My personal opinion of course.) I just recently was blessed to become the new proud owner of my first muscle car, a '66 Coronet 440, red 2dr. hrd.top, numbers match 426 with auto, posi-trac Dana, black bench, in beautiful condition, original paint. I am still struck with awe every time I look at her, sit behind the wheel, or start her up. Like a dream. I grew up in a Rambler/AMC; Chrysler-Plymouth- Dodge-Jeep dealership. Dad went from owning/operating an independent gas station to talking Rambler into letting him have a franchise in 1962. He then acquired Chrysler/Plymouth in '64 and Dodge in '68. Ended up dropping AMC somewhere around 1970, I believe. My brother and I continued running the dealership after his death until the Chrysler bankruptcy of '08-'09 when they terminated our, along with over 900 other, franchises across the country. So even though I still have a very sour taste in my mouth (only being polite here) for Chrysler Corp, I am and always will be, a true Mopar blue blood, in love with all their muscle cars of the late '60s, early '70s, AMC included, but we won't go there on this site. As I mentioned earlier, the '66 Hemi Coronet is actually the first I've owned because as you can guess, when your Dad owns the store you sometimes get to sample the candy without having to buy it. My second baby is a beautiful '67 Dart GTS convertible, turquoise blue, black trim and top, 383-4bbl., 4-spd., posi-trac. So my thanks to all, who combined, make this a great site for all of us still fascinated and in love with muscle cars. I'm not very computer literate but will attempt to put up some photos with more in the future.
