Re: [Chrysler300] 1958 Chrysler 300D Convertible in the Movies

Darrin,
         Seem to recall that it belonged to Tom Turner, from Alabama. There 
was an article in an issue of our Club News some years ago about it.  Tom 
also has an F convertible......with 4 speed, and at one time was President 
of the Club.
                           Dave in NZ.
