Come on, I listed 25 different things that happened this year first thing in the morning without even so much as a cup of coffee to get me going. Give a white boy a break already!

I'm still haunted by what if's concerning the Moparts Enginemasters motor. And I'm still in awe thinking about the people and talent that came together to make it happen. I still get a chuckle thinking about Randy Bolig being kicked out of cruise nite. (Randy, I'm not laughing at you) I'm still wondering what was going through Dave Hughes head. Terry Crow's project car, what can you say... it's everyones dream. And Onebadsuperbird's and DartGirls ultimate road trip.

Big Mopar doings for me this year include; Attending the 1st Annual Mopars On Ice show last June in Anchorage Alaska. Anchorage is over 2400 miles from me, so I earned the long distance award while averaging 11.6 miles to the gallon in my 440-6 powered '71 Challenger. This month also marks the seventh anniversary since I re-started the Challenger T/A Registry, it has been a lot of fun and I have made lots of great friends. 969 T/As currently on file, and they just keep coming in. Hooking up three T/A owners with broadcast sheets for their cars in the last two months too. Getting my new website up and running with help from fellow Moparts members Ken and Nick. Another awesome creation from G-Series and Pam should make this list as well, they have wonderful imaginations and the skills to make their visions come to life. My pal Kissalien FINALLY buying a Panther Pink Challenger after years of looking should make this list as well. Overall, it has been a great Moparts Year,to many, many more! Barry

Hi John, Alaska is BIG! LOL I am just as close to Anchorage as Glenwood Springs Colorado. 2400 miles as the crow flies from here to either city. I live on an island, so we had to put the car on a ferry as far as Haines, then drive through BC and the Yukon to Tok, then down to Anchorage. The driving part of the trip was over 1700 miles. If you set Alaska down over the 48 contiguous states, SE Alaska would be in Florida,the Aleutians would be in California and Point Barrow would be in Montana. We could divide Alaska up three times and then Texas would be the 4th largest state. Barry

OK let me have at this:
Jan, trade '68 Coronet 440 shell for '78 Aspen SE 4-dr and '75 Ranchero, both run.
April: Dislocate Elbow from said Aspen, out for a month, kick car into corner and neglect it. Also get '85 Ram out and running
May: Recovering nicely, break trans in '74 Dodge, replace with one twice as bad, park car. Drive '81 Ram SWB daily
June: Build '85 Ram with a 400/auto
Early july: Drive said '85 Ram to Manhattan. End up home okay. Break the motor playing too hard, park Truck.
August: Get rid of 5 cars, trade said Ram and Club Cab plus extra motor for '70 Sport Fury GT. Trade '66 Dodge LWB for '77 Fury 4-dr. Change nickname to TX9_Plymouth
September: Trade Ranchero for '78 Fury A-38 Kansas Highway Patrol car
October: Drop 225 from '78 Aspen SE after unsuccessfully trying to break it. 318 Suspension goes in place.
November: find and put money down on '77 Volare Custom 2-dr post.
December: Pick up Volare, then am attempting to pick up found '78 Aspen R/T and '78 Fury A38. All in one week. Make resolution to not buy anymore after this unless they are parts cars.
So there, there are a few more details on my end!

Hey John, I had to do some online digging, but here are the top three states as far as actual square miles go. #1 - Alaska - 656,425 sq. miles #2 - Texas - 268,601 sq. miles #3 - California - 163,707 sq. miles And just for Oz, Austrailia is 2,941,285 sq. miles. My T/A has been in storage for a while, but I put 23,000 miles on it here - without leaving the island. Barry
