RE: [Chrysler300] RE: G parts car

Wow! Talk about lettercars with a high risk of becoming parts cars.

Perhaps its time to replace the word "restoration" with "reassembly"?!? 'Cause we (and Gary Goers) sure aren't getting any younger.

Was it Josey Wales who said that "a good man has gotta know his limitations"? As a fella with many, many, many limitations (especially mental & financial), I've readjusted my expectations from restored -- to -- driveable. Takes a whole lotta pressure off of the ownership of junkers as well as adding a whole lotta near-term enjoyment to you AND the lucky folks at your local cruise-in. Ok, Its a whole lot cheaper, too.

Hi A & G and all:
I guess the "restoration" process begans when one starts to disassemble a car 
for that intended purpose. I have to (shamefully) admit that time for my 
white F convert was about 1975. That poor car has remained completely apart 
(only thing still bolted together is the rear axle to the car's paint stripped 
body) since then. It has been moved in the meantime from Holly to Lansing to 
Quincy, Michigan, then to Tallahassee. I do believe all parts are still present 
and accounted for, and make use of it as a guide during the blue F resto. 
Haven't snitched any, either! Is 29 years enough to qualify me for unoffensive 
restoration speed, Gloria? It might (should?) be grounds for dismissal from 
the Club! Happy New year and increased restoration progress to y'all in '04!! 
300ly, Gil
