I am with you, Tom.  What drew me to the Mopar's when I was young was the
way you could turn a grocery getter into a bonafide street rod with a beer

No disrespect intended, but I'll take big meats, no heater, and open headers
over repro air cleaner stickers and factory-correct hose clamps any day!
Then again, I am not in this to turn a profit :-()
