Mopar Muscle Association UK

I think it would be interesting to find out how long People have had their cars for ???
I've had mine a good many years now.
Purchased it in '79' at Rhein-Main Airbase Frankfurt Germany .Paid deutche marks that were the equivalent to about £300

Only had my current ones for a couple of years or so but I had my Dart for about 18 years. Previous Mopars I have owned for at least 5 years or so each, I'm not one for chopping and changing.

7 years with the Dart
Lasted a year with the Duster.

68 Coronet since 2009
69 daytona and 72 new yorker only a couple of years

First yank car 76 corvette in 1990 quickly followed by a 68 mustang

Didnt get my first mopar until 2004 as chargers were also too much money, then when I finally decided to pay the extra they had gone up again in price, and didnt realise how good the rest of the b - bodys were, finally in 2004 bought a blue 69 440 charger which was a heap of sh-it, then bought the most honest red 69 rust free 318 satty and loved it
Following car to note were
69 red 493 roadrunner built by g chiles, this was a proper mean machine, had some fun with that car
66 coronet big red n loud race car off Jeff Brown, always loved this car, restored it but neve did any good with it
68 roadrunner that was restored by alan carrington, b5 blue inside and out best colours ever for me
70 charger 440rt 6pack clone off clivey, the big white whale that dad mega buck spent on it, still see it and it still looks well
68 charger off anton, best driving b body ever

sorry theres my life story, a bit more than what you asked for

Brought my 73 Charger the first and so far only Mopar I've owned in March 2000. Its spent most of my ownership neglected in a Scottish garage and finally started the slow resurrection in the summer of 2015. With at least another year to go I'm already exited about getting back behind the wheel.

69 Sport Satellite, bought from Great Bookham, Surrey, in June 1985, so 33 years
63 Dodge, imported from North Carolina, arrived July 2004, so nearly 14 years

Not ones for chopping and changing either!

Bought my Charger in 2005, a little over 12 years at present.

Nic and I bought our Demon as a joint Christmas present to one another in 2015 so we've had it a little over 2 1/2 years.
It's our first American but we've had lots of classics between us prior to that - mostly Brit and German stuff.
We toyed with the idea of getting a '66 Mustang to "dip our toes" in the American scene but it wasn't what we really wanted - the thinking behind that was it would be easy to shift if we didn't like it given that there's always a selection of first gen pony cars avaliable on eBay. Common sense prevailed (or lack there of depending on how you look at it!) and we decided just to buy what we wanted and went straight for the mopar.
We weren't looking for a Demon in particular - the criteria was simply "a solid A body".

I’ve owned my 69 Road Runner since January this year and absolutely love it.

Prior to that I owned my 70 Sport Fury from 2011 until 2018.

My current collection consists of,79 Jeep J20 Wrecker,88 GMC Vandura Custom,86 Ford Capri Laser,90 Range Rover made to look like a 70s model and a Fiat Uno.

I like to keep a car to enjoy it and have gone and bought cars back that I have regretted selling too.

Wow almost 4 years already

First Mopar, first Yank. Before that a Cobra, Dune Buggy/sandrail thingy, S3 Landie , 64 Ford Corsair, a couple of P6 Rovers and a hot rodded VW.

Well I bought mine (from Surrey IIRC) in 1985!! Thought that might be one of the longest owned but forgot about Rob and Stu Satellite, and obviously a Roadrunner bought in '79 beats that!
(Yes I actually drove it for many years )

That's a viscous rumour...

Yeah its only a 'Satellite Sebring plus' but I did use it for maybe 20ish years after buying it

Unlike Blue, I change my Mopars more often than I change my socks....

Have you got any socks...er... Mopars left, Pete?
As you say, you change them that often, it's hard to keep up!
