Re: [Chrysler300] Custom or not+ 300F update



Hello Gary and everyone! Just had to comment on that fact of sharing your experiences with the youngsters. Heck, at 35, when I first acquired my G about 5 years ago, I thought I was the youngest lettercar owner and then I heard of our cool club member, Andy Mikonis, a few years younger. Anyway, I feel younger too when I get the thumbs up regarding my G from the youngsters myself. I always hear also, " a hemi?" To which I have to respond, "No, a wedge with the cross rams". Three seconds later of course I'm popping the hood to show it. "Did that come stock!?", I always hear as well. One of the expressions a teenager (or in early 20s) said to me was, "a SICK car man, right on". Boy, from "far out" to "that's bad", (meaning good), to "sick"!  What will these youngsters come up with next!? Also remember Gary, you're 64 years YOUNG, not old!!   Hopefully see you in Tahoe!  Sincerely and 300ly, Brandt H. J. w/ a G.

Brain says I'm 19 every day when I walk out the back door     and see 
all my MOPARS.  My daily driver is a 1963 Dodge Polora 500 that I bought 
new.   It has a built 426 wedge with the 62 Chrysler  Dual 4's with 
Nickel plated oval  air cleaners.  2 1/2 " exhaust with 13" Dynomax 
Mufflers.
I love it when I have young people yell to me on the road.  " Love Your 
Car"  " Thats a Great set of Wheels man" etc.
But most of all " Does it Have a Hemi?"
I have belonged  to the club for around 10 years and have never even met 
a another member, but the members that have shared their expertise and 
friendship on the web has been great.   I would rather see a 300 saved 
and a Windsor customized.

Up date on my 300F   Interior is complete, Brakes are complete, Tires & 
wheels are complete.  Front suspension is all powder coated and 
complete,  Exhaust system is 3/4 installed( Waiting for engine and 
tranny to be installed.)  Engine is ready to install.  I just finished 
updating the Transmission from a truck to a 300 specs.  I have a custom 
Torque converter from TCI ready to go in.
The frame is all done along with the firewall and heater box and related 
parts.  The front clip is in the carport waiting to be reworked and 
painted.   I'm trying as hard as I can to make it to Tahoe in Aug.
I believe I share my cars more with younger people than my own age.  And 
believe me when they leave they go looking for a MOPAR to buy.  Just 
share a little enthusiasm with them about saving our old cars.

Thats enough or maybe to much.    Gary Barker
