Larry: I received the compendium of Hey Lefties and have just completed reading them. Thanks for reissuing these blasts from the past. It was great to read that there is nothing new under the sun as you issued guidance to the 300 masses on issues technical, economic, emotional and non-sensical. I was pleased to learn that the Lefty moniker was geographically based, not political. I'd like to suggest to club management that they consider reprinting old Hey Lefties in our current journals and/or online. Like most car journals, they could use a little spicing up. I would share with others the source of the '57 300C color Gaugin Red: http://tinyurl.com/ygrs4wx A splash of color in the lower RH corner is certainly the source of the tint chosen in 1956 by the Chrysler Design Group as you pointed out. I'm not sure whether it is the Moon's knickers or a lava flow--but there it is. Visitors to the site are encouraged to click on the sound track which explains the picture and Gaugin's raison d'être for his Tahiti trip. Would it not be cool to have these sound bites under some of the pictures at our website? Thanks again for making the 300 trip more fascinating, enlightening and fun.

Available now, free for the asking, is a SIMULATED PACKAGE of all 20 of those wonderful "Hey Lefty" columns from the Chrysler 300 Club News, dated Winter of 1997 through Winter of 2002. Thrill again to the wacky advice and the accurate reportage so now missing from newspapers. Reproduced by an actual Xerox office machine on superb Staples Economy Grade bond and attached with maximum strength Office Max staple, there are minutes of chuckles and guffaws awaiting. New to the Club after 2002? This should be a mandatory read. Meet Tim Buck II and other Club luminaries spotlighted in the series. Not available in stores but hand delivered to you by a courier of the USPS. You have but to e-mail: _JettRanch@xxxxxxxx (mailto:JettRanch@xxxxxxx) to request. Include the mailing address you wish used as Lefty rushes your order to you. Do not send any request to the List Server but directly to the e-mail address mentioned. Fine Print: The 'President' mentioned in the salutation is the President of Redwood Lease Co, an automobile company which expired too early for one of those Stimulus Package bailouts. Rats! As in engine ignition, timing is everything!!
