The Minnesota meet report is ready. You can read it here.
The meets we had this year in Dallas and Minnesota
were great fun.
Next year we celebrate the 50th year for the club with a
spring meet in South Carolina
and a fall meet in Michigan.
I hope you can make one or both. Check back here for more information as plans develop.

I had a local body supply store make me a quart of Chrysler green engine paint from the last of my Duplicolor 210. It came out perfect and cost $38.00. The place is MacDonald Auto, 1397 E. Main St., Torrington, CT 06790 in case any club members need this paint. Ask for John Leonard. 860-489-1410. He has the recipe.

Here are some pics of my 300J exhaust. 
I believe they are original equipment.
The car has only 63000 miles. The pipes are all mandrel bent.
You might want the pics for the archives.

Mark and Becky Paulson write:
Gloria said I should send this picture to you. It was an evening car show here in Concord, CA.
The C always draws a lot of attention, I went into a restaurant to pick up
dinner and came out to find 5 guys all standing around my wife and
her car asking a lot of questions. My poor little 1956 Chevy truck gets jealous of the attention she gets.

Good crowd and lots of cars for the 2019 Belle River Classic Cruise.
For those who were there and those who missed it...here's a good look.

Greg Leggatt writes;
A friend sent these pictures of an odd D wheel cover.
He felt they could be pre-production
parts or perhaps experimental.
Have you ever seen anything like it?

John & Arlyss Chesnutt write;
These are pictures taken by the editor of our “WP Chrysler Club” at Forest Grove published in the August News Letter. There are several pictures of our 1957 Chrysler 300C which still has the original Copper Brown Metallic paint. We purchased the Chrysler on July 19, 1958 ( 61 years ago).
on July 25th we celebrated our 60th anniversary at the Mt. Hood Silcox Hut at 7,000 ft. – 1,000 feet
above Timberline on Mt. Hood with 18 members of our family.

I took a two week driving trip to my hometown in Pennsylvania the end of July to attend Clarion County Fair.
While there, I drove down to Windber to pick up new seat foam for my
300F at Quireys.
Todd gave my wife and I a tour of their facility and we were very impressed.
I am quite sure members of our club are going to be very happy with Gary Goers' successor.
Give them your support. They appear to be very professional and know which way their head is screwed on!

You may remember I wrote about 3N561171, the unique car re-bodied in Italy by Carrozzeria Boano
(ENews #42).
I wanted to share the finished product. It's on the way west to debut at Pebble Beach next week.
