I remember browsing Moparts on my Phillips Magnavox WebTV unit. I also surfed a site called "Dallas Mopars" something. Another early 2000s site called Cuda Dudes and another called Grinwas mopar? Magazines were still king but the forums and email were really new and neat.
Keep old mopars alive.

Moparts started in Oct of 1996
Using a simple script so all posts were in one thread
Then used an early ver of this board software , but got so busy we would crash the server couple of times a week
When this Board software was rewritten every one had to reregister
And what made Moparts grow was I started paying a company to run the server Which made it reliable and stopped the server crash’s and gave us the bandwidth that was needed

20 years plus. Lots of members have come and gone. Met many of you over the years depending on the venue.

So that's the reason for so many pop up ads? I understand bills have gotta be paid, but at what price are you paying them? Did you honestly think this website was going to last this long? Thank you for all your efforts.

The "joined" date in your profile is the "new board". Mine shows 2003 but I've been here since the nineties.
Yup. You can tell the early, early guys from their joining number. I was #454 member to join in the 1990’s.
