You did indeed miss the point. The original email was from Don Warnaar who wrote: "Chrysler 300 enthusiasts should find this information to be interesting. It was 65 years ago today on August 18, 1940 that Walter Percy Chrysler died at age 65.? An interesting comparison of numbers. Had it not been for Walter P. and the corporation he founded, we would not have our collections of Chrysler 300 Lettercars, there would not be a 300 Club, and we would not be sharing our thoughts and opinions on this listserver. Don Warnaar New Jersey" The point being that without WPC, our club and cars wouldn't exist.
