Re: [Chrysler300] 300-B Durham???

Hi Pete:
First of all, CONGRATULATIONS to you and Anne!!  Carol and I look  forward to 
seeing you both in Asheville.
I am sure someone with more knowledge than I will answer your question in  
greater detail.  In a nutshell, Durham was a custom body  manufacurer---quite 
prominent in the 30's.  Many of the classics had bodies  by Durham.  I don't 
know if there was any special relationship with  Chrysler such as Fleetwood had 
with Cadillac.  The Durham 300B (there is a  300C too) seems to be just a mild 
custom.  I am kind of surprised it didn't  go for more, though.  I definately 
didn't think the side trim removal  improved its looks at all.  Exner knows 
best!!!!!
300ly, Gil

Among  the cars sold at B-J was a 1956 300-B Durham, which sold for   
$28,080.00.  Can someone tell me what the "Durham"  signifies???
