> To all you Chrysler 300 enthusiasts who are eagerly awaiting the release
of the DVD commemorating the letter cars; it is in the editing process.  A
little background for those who may have forgotten or didn't know of the
project:  We filmed at three separate meets, Auburn Hills, MI in the spring,
Carlisle, PA in the summer and South Lake Tahoe in the fall.  We interviewed
over 40 people and filmed as many or more cars for the project.  As you
might imagine, that is a lot of videotape to edit and put into a story.  In
addition to the interviews and footage of the meets, we have historical
footage provided courtesy of Daimler-Chrysler of early Chrysler 300 test
runs and promos as well as still shots provided by D-C and others.  The plan
is to put together a full-length DVD for sale to Chrysler 300 Club members
and other Chrysler 300 enthusiasts that documents the history and the
heritage of the 300's as well as pointing out what it means to be a member

project together and we are now in the middle of deer hunting season here in

trainging videos of everything from coal mines and power plants to
convenience stores and grain elevators.  Needless to say, my pleading with
him can only go so far when he is contracted to so many other customers.  He
assures me that things are moving along well with the project and that it is
on hold for only a short time until hunting season slows down a bit.  He did
 produce a short 7 minute clip for me to use in a speech before a local
Rotary Club a month or so back and it was phenomenal!!  I must tell you he
is pretty much of a perfectionist in his wor

you all will be very happy with.  Will it be ready by Christmas?  If I was
betting, I'd say likely not.  But, if it isn't it will be shortly
thereafter.  He doesn't want to take orders for them until he has a finished
product, so I'll let you all know the day that happens.  Thanks to all of
you who participated in the video project and to all those of you who plan
to purchase a copy.  As I said earlier, I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
