Since posting this reply to our newcomer Mopar_Chick's welcome thread, I've been giving the idea some more thought. Here's the general plan (always open to suggestions).
Starting in January 2010, one name will be drawn at random from the Young Guns' names who participate in this thread. I'll kick in something cool for the winner and in the meantime hopefully get other FABO vendors / members to help out with donations** of gift certificates, cool Mopar memorabilia, A Body parts, items of individual craftsmanship, decals/stickers, etc., to make up a sort of Goodie Bag / Box to award to the winner.
If there's enough interest and participation, this can be a monthly, quarterly or annual event to support the younger members of our hobby to help them finish their projects and give them inspiration to keep Old Mopar Love going well into the future. And it'll be fun reading the stories and learning why they went Mopar while their friends were going ricer.
HOW TO ENTER:
For our EXISTING* FABO members who are 25 and younger on or before January 30, 2010, tell us your Mopar story below as a reply to this thread. It can be as long or as short as you wish and include whatever you want to share ... about you, your car, your restoration efforts to date, what your plans are for its future, etc.

All entrants' names will be kept in a container and only one entry per person will be allowed. We gotta keep it fair ... I don't want to see the same story attached to five different user names!!!
On January 31, 2010, one winner will be drawn at random from amongst all entrants who emailed their post to me on or before January 30, 2010. The winner will be notified by email and/or Private Message through FABO.
If there's enough donations to keep this going we'll do another giveaway at a later date, drawing from all non-winning names previously received.
Thanks for reading! Now let's see some stories. :-D
* Entrant must have been a registered member on or before October 22, 2009 to qualify.
** Vendors/members who want to donate to the Goodie Box, please email a description of the offer to me directly at CudaChic1968@aol.com (my PM box is almost full) so as to keep non-Young Gun Story content and chatter to a minimum in this thread. It should be about them!!! Since I'm not sure what kind of response this is going to get, donation / item shipping details will have to be worked out later. (Trying to keep expenses to a minimum for all involved.)
