Re: [Chrysler300] Lefty's Earliest Owners List

["Kelly Pierce" <jkrestor300@xxxx>]

Happy New Year to All-
I cannot say I bought a Letter Car new, I was only 9 years old when they
stopped in 65. HOWEVER- Two notes on that idea of new Letter Cars. The first
New one I saw was when my Great Uncle took his 64 New Yorker in for warranty
work to S.L. Savage Chrysler Plymouth Dodge in downtown Seattle in the
spring of 64. I saw a Silver(Silver Special possibly?) 300K in the shop. It
did not have plates on it and I'll never forget that car. Maybe that's why I
am a K fan. Second thought/observation- How many have bought their Letter
Car from a Chrysler Dealer used,( in the 1980's?)I bought my Roman Red K
hardtop from Rolfe and Wood Chrysler Plymouth Dodge in Bozeman, Montana on
June 18th, 1982-MY 26th birthday(and the best birthday present I ever bought
myself!)
I am sure there are as many stories like this as there are members,
but had to throw in on this discussion. AND- I am sure someone out there has
owned their K longer than I- So let us know! Joe Pierce 300Kx2+M+others.
