Restoration of the caramel H continues. I have reached the point where the dash needs attention. I had first checked the 300 bible (our Club website) and noted that Ditzler 22091 paint, but my paint supplier could not find it. In the meantime I had two other dash paint suggestions from Club members that I’m checking, and I now think I’ll ask another paint supplier about the 22091 paint, just to recheck about its availability. I'll let you know.
I got a car lift for Christmas (son-in-law Mike spearheaded that gift) so that has made 300H work much easier (see pics). I hope to see you all before too long.

I have more pictures to scan but this is one of my Dad and his Parade Green 300C at El Mirage Dry Lake around 63,64. Also someone hit the rear quarter and my Dad actually got a replacement panel from Chrysler. The black one was his buddy Jim Rice's 300C. I'm not sure which one, but one of the cars was timed by SCTA (my Dad was an SCTA member back then) at 142 mph and change. The black car if I remember right was repainted after running from the local sheriff one night (Sherriff was Jim Rice's girlfriends Dad!) and they made the flashing Ford intercepter gumball fade away into the night.....they made it home but spent the next months sanding the car down and repainting it with 14 coats of hand sanded black lacquer. I have pictures of the car after this paint job, but have not scanned yet. Long after Dad sold his 300 to Jim Rice I got another one and I found a news clipping of when he got in a fender bender with it.

Jim Rice's C. If you look close on the picture of the black C, you can see the reflection of the green C.

For years inquiring minds have asked this question and it’s not “Are You Faster Then A Red Neck”. No it’s can you get a 64 Chrysler inside a Grand Cherokee? Yes you can, at least the insides. See here. And with that, it is off to the upholstery shop for the installation of the new leather interior from Legendary.
You know, as soon as you start working on a project; you will need another tool and another tool. The solution to this problem is to just dump the entire tool box contents onto the job site. So handy in this case with all of those pesky seats out of the way. Some times , you just have to sit back and laugh at yourself.
Well as you can see the dirty job was done and I am very pleased with the results. I think the worst part was the wind lacing. I think, another time, I would have cut the old lacing off the cardboard and glued the new stuff to it. I just pierced the new edging and mounted it directly. I also have to agree with you about wrestling the shift cable back into the C bracket for the console.
Now I just have to wait for SMS to contact me for the door panels to complete the interior. It looks like we will have some driving weather next week. I am looking forward to that.
