Subject: 300H Tail lights

Hi, gang,
Okay I give up.  How in the world do these tail lights get
installed?  I'v tried about four different ways and none looks
right.  Which parts go on from inside the trunk and which parts go on
from outside and in what order?  Same thing goes for the back-up
lights. I need to solve this dilemna before I scratch the paint or
break my NOS light bezels. Can anyone offer some tips?

Thanks,
Mark Souders

Hi to all,

Trying to help Dwight locate the right grommet for his fuel tank filler
tube, 1964 Chrysler 300K.  Can someone please look up  a '64 parts book and
confirm that the right part number is 1730087 ?   (section 14)  That is what
I come up with using a 63 parts book, can't imagine it would be different,
but I would feel better if double-checked!

You can either "reply to all"  or reply to Dwight at   DMcGuire@xxxxxxxxxx

Thanks
John

Owen,
The red 300H stock cars of the Bakers were probably backed or owned by
Leonard Berger of North Carolina.  I met him last month at AACA Meet in
Greenville, S.C. where I showed my 300B.   He told me Buck raced for (with?)
him on Nascar circuit with the "H" 's  and that Chrysler had given him a red
300H for his personal use.  He wishes he had it now.
He does not have the original red H that they gave him but now has a Tan
(rare) 300H that he uses and drives to meets.  It is an AACA Senior from
several years ago but still very presentable.
He is a member of our Club.  Of interest is that he also managed most of the
real estate for the Petty's in N.C.
I helped him with his bags into the hotel for the Greenville AACA Meet.  His
room number was....................you guessed it.............Room #300 !!!!

If the number is 1730087 Brads NOS parts has 3 of them.

If the number is 2203 472 Brads NOS parts has 8 of them.

I am not endorsing Brads NOS in any way. I just used Partsvoice and there
were several others who had some of one or the other but Brads seems to have
both of them.
I hope that I have been some help.

      i want to head off the impression that crimping is always a cheap,
poor substitute for soldering which, if done wrong, can itself be a bad
connection. crimping, done with the proper components and correct
tooling is a perfectly acceptable and superior connection method; just
as soldering done wrong can be a lousy connection.

Subject: RE: New Hemi C 300

It seems fairly obvious from email responses that there is fairly widespread
opposition to any attempt, or thoughts, that D-C should 're-use' 300
letters?

Rather than rely on 'someone close to D-C should, or already has' told them
(D-C) they should not do this, either the Club MUST IN WRITING ASK
THEM/SUGGEST, or only 'NOT ASAP" if someone very high up in D-C can give it
in writing they do not intend re-using former letters!??

Ed del Grande and Doug Jones, and others, raised valid points.

We cannot ask that any company not re-use any name, be it Thunderbird, or
Eldorado.  We may cringe at what they chose to use it on, but that is their
right.  This however is totally different to that.

Please understand what here currently is something entirely NEW, when they
then ALSO choose to name that new model Thunderbird, Eldorado, or 300 with a
letter or designation that belongs to a previously famed/ regarded model,
that the new one is so dis-similar to the original!!!

Surely none of you believe this new currently named '300C' that someone at
D-C is 'officially' supplying copy to world media titled "new 300C", is
anywhere near as outstandingly 'performance ahead or styling significant' as
the early 300s !!!??  ( Ferrari would not be so dumb to re-use one it's
milestone names/models on 'so ordinary' an effort for the time - why should
D-C, you, the USA ?? )

Tell them officially, "please no re-use", certainly on initially lesser
attempts to the original chosen letters?!


ps Liz, have already changed the oil, fixed 2 steering boxes - can you
suggest a good polish, the harsh aussie sun seemingly affects not only our
brains, but also the paint?

For those seeking the trim ring, It is available through Emblemagic
www.emblemagic.com . In my case I waited 6 months to get it. They require a
deposit of $25 up front. I believe the total cost was $60. The quality
appears good, but since I have never seen an original one, I can't say how
exacting a reproduction it is.

C'mon guys it's 2003, times have changed, "D-C" are in the business of
selling cars to the mass market. They're not in the business of pleasing a
small group of people that think it's still 1957.
The "ugliness" of the current models makes our cars even more special in my
opinion.
Accept it and get on with life.

Located in San Diego.  Check out photos.  Present owner in the club?  Looks as if everything is there but still quite a project.

And what about the 58 D that has no bids as yet starting out at $15,100?  And the 55C300 ending up tomorrow afternoon.

Lots of 300's out there suddenly.

Hi all;
Leonard joined the club some months before the Spencer, NC meet, hosted by
Rev. Carl Kreps. He was then retired from Petty Ent., and was instrimental
in getting the club access to the racing shops at Petty Ent. The members
toured where the public is not allowed, and some of us were lead by Lee
Petty, himself.
He also got us into Charlotte (Lowe's) Speedway where we had lunch in the
private Clubhouse overlooking the track. We were also allowed to park our
cars on the sidewalk in front of the Main entrance and had pictures taken
there. In add'n, he had Tim Flock there at lunch as a special guest. Tim
signed copies of the famous drawing of the 300's side by side on the Daytona
bank, some had their dashes/gloveboxes signed.
He arranged other things for us, which enhanced Carl's meet, and made it
truly special. Lee Petty and Tim flock are gone now and most of us would
have never met them had it not been for Leonard, and we all thank him again.

These things are the fabric of our meets, most of them special in their own
way, and the members who skip them are missing many great experiences. If
you haven't made a meet, just do it. I promise you, you'll want to come
again!

Get those registration forms in, please, and we'll see/meet ya there!
Ray Jones, Meet Coordinator

Subject: Re: '62 help - Alternators

Well said Jeff.  However, I would wager that the average home mechanic does
not have the proper terminals, nor the proper crimping/staking tools to
make connections that will reliably handle the 50+ amps that an alternator
charging circuit can carry.  The wire size should probably be #10 or
#8.  Those light duty terminals that one sees in the plastic box kits don't
cut it in my opinion.  The crimping tools that come with those kits also
leave much to be desired.    If you spend the money for good components,
and use them correctly, then probably crimping  alone is ok.  What might
work ok for short cruises could leave you stranded on a long night trip
with headlights, a good stereo and maybe an A/C going if a bad connection
exists.  Soldering requires a good mechanical connection prior to the
soldering taking place, clean connections and a proper technique.  Over the
years, I have always soldered my crimp connections (after crimping) when I
intended that they would become a permanent installation on my boats and
also my cars.  So far I have been lucky enough to not have any failures
from those connections I completed in that manner.

Subject: Hello


Greetings Friend,

First, let me introduce myself, then the essence of this contact.

I am Mr Peter Damara, Bank Manager of United Bank For Africa , Capetown
Branch. I have urgent and very confidential business proposition for you. On
June 6 1998, a gold  marchant/contractor with the Randgold Exploration
Company, Mr. Jim Smith made a numbered time (Fixed) deposited for twelve
calendar months, valued at US$25,000,000.00 (Twenty-five Million Dollars) in
my branch.

Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but
got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered
from his contract employers, Randgold Exploration company Ltd that Mr. Jim
Smith died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found
out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin
were fruitless.
I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. Jim Smith did
not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his
Bank Deposit paperwork.
This sum of US$25,000,000.00 is still sitting in the Bank and the interest
is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one
will come forward to claim it. According to the South African Law, at the
expiration of 5 (five) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the
South African Government if nobody applies to claim the funds.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in
as the next of kin to Mr. Jim Smith so that the fruits of this old man's
labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt officials. This is
simple, I will like you to provide me immediately with your full names and
address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and
affidavits,which will put you in place as the next of kin.
I would also like you to scan you drivers license for me.
We shall employ the services of two attorneys for drafting and notarization
of the WILL and obtain the necessary documents and letter of
probate/administration in your favour for the transfer.A bank account in any
part of the world, which you provide, will then facilitate the transfer of
this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid
into your account for us to share in the ratio of 60% for me and 40% for
you.
There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be
done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the
successful execution of this transaction.

If you are interested, please reply immediately. Upon your response, I shall
then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you
understand.
Please observe utmost confidentiality, and rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require
your assistance to invest my share in your country.

Awaiting your urgent reply via email.

Thanks and regards,

Peter Damara

Ray, thanks for bringing up the Spencer meet.  It certainly was outstanding. 
I have all of Tim Flock's talk on tape.  Who would have thought he would have
been gone just a year or two later?  Oh, yes, and then there was the chat
with King Richard himself, in the parking lot after the Petty Enterprises
tour. (A few of us were still hanging around--- having a little refreshment!)
Regarding the Baker race cars.  I would certainly doubt they were 300Hs.  Why
pay for all the extras not needed in a race car----especially that interior? 
I don't know if any pictures exist of the cars from the rear, but I would be
very surprised to see any "Hs" on the deck lids!  Maybe someone more
knowledgable in old NASCAR stuff could enlighten us on that.  Other racing
1962s like Brock's, Granatelli's, and Faubel's were not lettercars.   I did
buy one of the pictures on ebay referred to.  A little fuzzy, as the seller
warned, but pretty cool to hang on the wall.   300ly,  Gil

Subject: RE: Yet Another scam!!!!

To all club members:



I would like to add yet another potential scam. 



(Sorry, I accidentally sent this out before I added the details.)



I regularly transact business on E$$BAY and USED to use Paypal (which by the way is now owned by E-Bay).  Well recently I received an E-Mail from "someone" which had what looked like an official Paypal logo and a return address of "paysecurity@xxxxxxxxxx" informing me that  "Paypal" was conducting a periodic update of members to check their records on inactive accounts and non functioning mailboxes.  This E-Mail included a form which asked for my e-mail address, password, name, billing address, credit card number, expiration date, and pin number.  I am surprised that they did not also ask for my social security number and my mothers maiden name.



This form was a regular html document and did NOT indicate that it was using any form of encryption technology.



I immediately sent off an E-Mail to Paypal informing them of this E-Mail and giving them the senders E-Mail address.  In searching for scams on the internet, it seems that there have been numerous occurrences of this type of thing recently, with PayPal and other organizations. 



Bottom line, if anyone asks for any type of personal information ---DO NOT send them anything.  Immediately contact the real organization, using the normal internet address that you use to enter their site and notify them that you just received such a request.  You might also send an E-Mail to the FBI Internet Fraud Division at http://www1.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp.  Check this site out yourself - It looks to be an authentic government site and not yet another scam organization.



The bottom line is to always be cautious and suspicious of anyone EVER asking for ANY information from you.  Sorry if this sounds paranoid, but you can never be too careful these days.



Now to make this post official for the listserver and related to our 300's.  I must mention that I love my 1962 Chrysler 300 "Sport" convertible and the weather is getting very nice for taking it out for a drive.



Be Careful and happy cruising,



John Mc Adams

Okay gang, figure it out.  The "C" stands for CONCEPT.

As far as history goes, I see plenty of it at:

 http://www.chrysler.com/design/vehicle_design/history/eras/

Oh, and what about clubs?  Try

 http://www.chrysler.com/design/vehicle_design/car_clubs/

where you'll see the 300 Club Intl. mentioned by name.

And, as far as the dealers go, well lots of them are just that.
Dealers.  Over the years, I found that some are into cars, and some
might just as well be selling tractors.  I remember very proudly
displaying my 300C on the showroom floor of a local Chrysler dealership
soon after I purchased it.  The General Manager of the dealership is a
good friend of mine and knows the heritage of the lettercars.  His Sales
Manager at the time thought my car was really neat, was glad to have it
on the floor next to a '99, but didn't understand the whole letter thing
and referred to it as a '57 300M. <grin>

Thomas F. Miller

300C, 300M

>>> <fastedgie@xxxxxxx> 4/29/2003 12:14:47 AM >>>

Why is the new Chrysler a 300 Hemi C?????
What has the C got to do with the current name.
The letter 'C' in 1957 had a special designation earned as a
performance vehicle in a series of Letter cars. These special letter
cars became sought after collectibles because of their special impact on
the history automobile and in particular to the making of a great
company, Chrysler Corporation.
But what the hell has the C got to do with the 2005 model year?
Especially when the 'C' follows the 'M' car a mass produced non
collector car??
It's obvious the current marketers at DCX are right out of touch with
reality.  They want to capitalize on the marketing value of the Letter
Cars, but they fail to see the need to protect the real letter cars from
the rank and file.
The current management should take a lesson from Chrysler management of
the 50's and early 60's.  They too saw the value of capitalizing on the
Chrysler 300 name.  But they protected the letter cars by dropping the
letters on the mass produced 300's of that time period.   Even Iacocca
saw they importance of the special status of the Letter cars by
designating the  79 Chrysler 300 as a letterless car., not withstanding
what he did to the Charger name. ( Charger 2.2, what a laugh on Dodge's
history)
The current 300 M should never have been a letter car, it's way too
late to fix it. But to go from the 'M' to a 'C' is absolutely senseless
and without any marketing advantage. And in common English, it's
confusing and alphebetically incorrect.
In the future when a 300 Club Member is called upon to explain the
special significance of the Letter Cars, he will indeed, have to explain
the meaning of stupidity.  The unfortunate thing is there is no law
against it.

Seems to me you have all forgotten we have members who work at D-C and could
solve the dilemma of the 300C or 300N if one would just ask them.

My source who volunteered the information on his own and without my even
asking reports the 300C that was in New York will be released as a 300N.

Don't you all have better things to do than whine about the current models?
Go change your oil, fix your steering box or polish your 300 for the next
car show!

I know there was a factory service bulletin concerning hesitation and
