A group 4 size 6 volt truck battery would work great, if you can fit it in

there, they're somewhat bigger than a car battery.

Subject: Andy Bernbaum

Hi Everyone,
  With all the talk lately about where to get parts, I thought  I would
plug a local supplier who got me what I needed. I ordered some parts from
Andy Bernbaum yesterday afternoon, and they were on my steps at noon
today. Andy has a lot of parts for our Brutes, and offers great service.
He has also asked me to let everyone who is coming to the meet know that
if they need parts, just call and he can bring them to the meet. He plans
to come down on Friday and stay over for the show. If anyone has troubles
on the road also (hopefully not) he will ship anything you need right out.
His number is 617-244-1118 or 1-800-457-1250 (orders only). 
300ly,
      Don

Subject: Negative Battery Cable Location

Good afternoon,

What is the propper location for mounting the negative battery cable to
the engine on the '61 G? Mine was located on the front left side
bolt/stud holding the exhaust manifold to the cylinder head. Is this
correct? Just seemed a little odd.

Thanks,

Richard Osborne

The June 02 Issue of Cars & Parts has  a 1957 300C on the front page. The
car belongs to Club member Dan Norris of LaCanada, CA.  John Lazenby
contributed to the article. The car was first seen at the Newark, Calif
300
meet. The car was restored by Timo Tanskanen and is one of the best
restorations I have seen. It is Copper Brown. The article covers six pages
with many pictures of the interior and exterior. There are also two
pictures
of John Lazenby's Black 300C.

Hi John, and all

Dan Norris' 300C  is indeed a stunning "restoration"  . I was fortunate to
see the car at Larry Jett's meet in CA a few years back ( my, how time
flies ) as well as last year at a local show in CA  .  I just want to
point
out that the car, while originally "Copper Brown" , was repainted a
totally
different color - 1998 (?)  Toyota Truck copper, if I remember Timo's
comments correctly . It was also featured in Mopar Collector Guide some
time
ago.  Single headlight "C", right , from Jet Propulsion Laboratory in CA ?

With regards to Steve Estok's question re: ram heat tubes, these are
available from Eileen  Brass, as per her ads in any Club News issue .
Having
a plugged-up tube should not prevent you from driving the car from NJ to
RI,
Steve.  Quite a few cars have blocked-off heat tubes for one reason or
another... they will still run fine, but the chokes, if connected, will
take
a long time to warm up and come off...

And now - it's time to GET EXCITED  about the meet !  weather report for
the
area is for "partly cloudy"  Wedn. thru Sunday , with temperatures
reaching
mid-sixties during the days, and mid forties at night.  Whatever that
means
...  I am looking to see y'all there !

John

Usually, you find the negative cable attached the frontmost intake
manifold 
mounting bolt on the driver's side.

Subject: Re: trunk lid insulation materials

I searched all over to find correct material for the trunk insulation when

doing my '56 NY Convert.  It doesn't exist.
The only place to get authentic material is from a donor parts car with a 
good untouched piece and literally chop saw the underside crossmembers
that 
hold it in and remove it in one piece.   The piece will have the imprint
of 
the cross panels where it the sections can be cut and then glued back into

your trunk. 
Been there, done that!!
John
