Re: [Chrysler300] 58 300 D Pictures Lake Tahoe Event



Yours isn't the one that originally was owned by "Wild" Bill Elliott? 
Planed to bid on that one when up on ebay some time back but someone did buy 
it now and rest is history.

Or was yours from Sheriff of Cochise with holsters in the doors?

Have had three 55 wagons and all are gone now but most interesting one was a 
real rust bucket from Chicago area.  It was special ordered for CEO of some 
company who did business with Chrysler.   Was two toned in non standard 
shades of grey with Imperial leather and cloth interior including doors and 
visors with leather.   It had gold plated hood and tailgate ornaments 
and---the entire normally wood area in the back had the imperial hogs hair 
carpeting it it.  It was beautiful originally and interior was still very 
nice but it was scary to drive home from Chicago since I expected that a 
sharp bump would split the frame in two.  Sold it to friend in Pa who put 
interior into nicer one he already had at least so part of it still lives.

Guy from Canada has had interesting wagon at Hershey a number of times--last 
I saw he had folding tent on top and slept there.
