Most Influential Person in Mopar Automotive History

For me, it was the blue/red 43 Charger that always caught my eye. Back when a "stock car" actually looked like what you could buy on Monday..

Good choice. and all no. 43 Mopars
Thanks to The King they started installing the safety nets in window. This man is tough as nail.

You may not believe this but,for me, it wasn't any one on that list.
It was the rich kids in my High School that made me reallize the power and superiority of Mopars during the Muscle Car era.
They owned every thing from factory models to sleepers. Factory wheels to Cragars. Green, blue, white and gold ones.
I was allways jealous of them because I couldn't aford any thing that came close to being a mopar muscle car, or any other muscle car.
Today, out of all those guys that I still see and associate with, I'm the only one who has mopar muscle cars.
One said to me a while back, that I should move on, that my RR and R/T wern't family cars.
I said, I know that, but a lot of families were started in cars like them. lol
Besides, I am moving on. I'm living the dream that they gave up on.

Don Prudhomme all the way! The Snake with his 70 Hemi Cuda nitro funny car is not on the list but his rival with Tom McEwen the Mongoose and his 70 Plymouth Duster and Hot Wheels toys sure did it for me as a kid growing up on the west coast. I got the Snake and Mongoose Drag race set with the funny cars and Wild Wheelie set with the dragsters and both had chute traps. I was sooo happy I was sh#$ing rainbows for a week!
