Re: [Chrysler300] 300E tires - 14"'

[lettercars@xxxxxxx]

Congratulations John and Arlys on owning your first 300 for 50  years!   I 
will have to wait for 2013 for that honor.  We also  took our 300C on our 
wedding trip.  As of this July, however, I have owned  my first car for 50 
years.  (1954 Ford Cvt.)  Enjoy your trip----hope  the Cokers hold up!
300ly, Gil C.

We  bought Cokers for my 1957 300C in April 2005 and had them delivered to
the  Portland Swap Meet for pickup.. Have driven them only 33 miles. We had
to  put too much weight on them to get a good balance. We even rotated the
tire  on the rim 180 degrees. This corrected the balancing some but one tire
has  still too much weight.

We are getting our 300C ready to drive it to the  Chrysler 300 meet at 
Tacoma
Washington, August 26 -30. Just replaced the  brakes on the front including
new wheel cylinders, new master cylinder and  rebuilt Power Brake Booster 
and
the short rubber brake line below the  master cylinder. It was completely
blocked due to age.

We are  celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and had driven it 50 years
ago  from Seattle to Mexico. It still runs great. Over the years, we rebuilt
the  engine twice and put 10 1/2 pistons in the 392.

Those who come to the  Tacoma meet will see an all original Copper Brown 
300C
except for the motor  modifications. It still looks good after 51 years.

John & Arlys  Chesnutt

I have had 6 sets of Coker Classic radials and  3 sets have had tread  
separations and one set took 20 ounces on one  of the tires to balance.  
I would buy ANYTHING but  Coker!
