About Me

The '83 Dodge Aries, K-series is a temperamental machine, wired completely backwards, a mechanical nightmare that saved lots of asses (specifically, Chrystler,from out of financial ruin)...short on horsepower but got where it was going...quite a dodge, it was....never been much seen in a long time. Temperamental little bitch she was, too - worked prettymuch when it wanted to, though was great for A to B and reliable in its own right...

C'est moi. Temperamental, yet reliable. Short on power but long on saving peoples' backsides when called for. And yes, quite a dodge :P
