FW: [Chrysler300] D convert F convert

["Ed Jasinski" <ed5000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Nancy,

I believe the F was purchased in the early 2000's by Al Wallace of Rhode
Island.  His was black and it did have a black top.  Al passed away in late
2006 as I recall.  I do know that the car was purchased in January the next
year by a dealer.  From there I've lost track of it, save for a for sale
sighting of Al's F at Hershey or Carlisle shortly thereafter.  It was a
pretty decent car and Al said it had the black top when Burt owned it.  I
don't know if the VIN ever went past Gil.

Ask him if the car had a red interior. Chic and I bought a black D 
convertible from someone in Mass very near the New Hampshire border in 
maybe the early eighties. The car was special ordered with a red 
interior. I think it did come from New England as it was very rusty 
underneath. I think the car is one of a kind with that red interior so if 
this person's father's car had a red interior then that is the car.

On the black F convert. I think Burt Tyler had one that had passed through 
my late husband Chic's hands and may have been a local car in New 
England. At least that is what I think Chic told me. A lot of interesting 
automotive history was lost with the loss of Chic. Anyway does anyone know 
the history of Burt Tyler's black F convert if so it might shed some light 
on whether it was the one that belonged to this person's dad.

Like there are just not that many of these cars.

Regards,

Nancy Kramer
