Do you know what this is?
It is an external condensor for the points. Installed outside,
you can use a bigger condensor with better performance, longer life, and easier service.

I thought I would share this cool discovery. I am in the process of stripping trim from my 1960 300F. When I removed the hubcaps, I found this inscription from the original owner. I'm guessing he etched this into the hubcap in case it came of so it could be returned. The owner, William Seymour was born in 1915 and died in 1977 in Washington State, which coincides with what the data card says for the initial delivery of the car.

For those of you like me that can't get enough 300s, how about Letter Car shoes?

2026 Calendar? Yes!
Now that the cold weather is on its way out - for most of us - we're starting to prep our Letter Cars for the 2025 Driving Season. And for those of you in the Southern Hemisphere, it's not winter yet where you're still cruising.
With our trees, bushes and flowers about to fully bloom, we need your contributions of Letter Car photos for our 300 Club's 2026 Calendar. Our 2023, 2024 and 2025 Calendars have proved very popular and Thanks for your orders! You've purchased more calendars over each of these successive years, and we had several more orders this past year than we could fulfill. So we're happy to announce your Club is proceeding with our 2026 Calendar.
We've moved up our deadline dates this year - We must receive your photo submission of your Letter Car not later than our July 31st cutoff date! We're planning on an early November mailing date of these Calendars.
We need photos of every year 1955 through 1965 300, plus the 1970 Hurst 300. Certainly, some years' models are rarer than others, so we really encourage your participation in this project. Your photos should be - high resolution color, no window or outside car cards or signs, factory hubcaps and tire styles, hoods, doors, trunks closed, factory paint colors, factory interior patterns and colors, good lighting, an interesting background setting.
Please email your photos - we suggest 2 or 3 different shots - to Dave and Kya Masons' email forwardlook300@yahoo.com. Include the photo's location and the photographer's name. In the meantime, enjoy your 2025 Calendars and cruising in your Letter Car(s) this year!
