Re: [Chrysler300] Re: Pentastar

[lettercars@xxxxxxx]

All:
According to the Hi Performance Mopar article referenced a couple days ago  
( _http://www.moparts.org/Tech/tech/pentastar.html_ 
(http://www.moparts.org/Tech/tech/pentastar.html)    )  interview with the pentastar originator, 
Robert Stanley, quotes him  "....absolutely no rationale for the five points". 
 After that design was  selected, they just called it a "pentastar" because 
Chrysler wanted some kind of  a name for it.  Pentastars were put only on 
the right front because  they would be seen by more people there----including 
sidewalk traffic.
Quite an interesting article, although a bit on the long side.
At any rate, the pentastar signifies nothing except the Chrysler  
Corporation.
300ly, Gil Cunningham

Your  posts on the pentastar (representing Chrysler's 5 year warranty)  is
timely.  I recall getting the newsletter / magazine from the other  Chrysler
300 club this week.   It had an interesting article  about when the 
pentastar
was first used and where to mount it on various  Chrysler  products in case
customers who bought cars before the  initial installation date (early 
1963's
for example) could get a free add  on from the factory if the dealer placed
just one bulk order for all the  extra pentastars they expected to need.
