300Fans,
To see a Forward Look Ad, showing the 1955 line up, go to E-bay.com,. search for The Ad Store. When on their site, search 1955 Chrysler. When that comes up, go to the second row down, center. There it is.
All the Best 300ing!,

Mike,
Thanks you
for the kind words. I've sent a query off to the
seller and requested photos of the Chrysler example.
I'm sure it will be interesting to see what they come
back with.

Hi Rob,
Exactly..me too. And Broderick Crawford (?) 56 D500 highway
patrol car; CHP tested all the 56 hi po cars , 315 cu in
D500 killed all the 265 chev and 312 ford police cars, so
they went Dodge. I remember the 56 Dodge running down the
bad guys all the time.. Same on mass pike here in 62; they
had 426 long ram white and green Chrysler station wagons ,
(?400hp H engine?) after the first Cobras out ran them in
390 and 406 Fords…one Cobra guy in particular kept playing
with them. Griffith ,too..remember those?
I remember being pulled over on turnpike (in that 57 Dodge)
and the headlights of the ram car bouncing up and down in
rear mirror at idle. There was a picture somewhere in a
boston paper about them running down and cutting off a Cobra
against the guard rail in the big Chrysler , supposedly up
to 160 (I am sure, exaggeration, to scare off those who
would try) Road was pretty new than, looked ideal for a high
speed run. I Remember that cop car pulling out, leaving me ,
going fast after someone else , floored, kicking up gravel
and wheels squealing a bit , big roar.
Kind of amazing, (?English) , I ended up with the all powder
blue 57 Dodge convert, with white top , that the Lennon
sisters used to sit in on that Welk show, at the beginning,
singing. . My dad loved the show, I would not go that far,
(= later Stones fan, Chuck Berry and Buddy Holley at the
time, bubble music not my thing), but loved that 57 Dodge. I
have had 4 of those over the years, including a 57 D500 hemi
stick, red and black one , 3;73 (?) axle, Coronet stripper
in 1961. No power anything. Later it got a 300D hemi in it.
I have one now , 57 Custom Royal convert with 480” 440 in
it, and red and white 57 D500 coupe . .
I sold the rust free Welk car, which had TV #2 or something
written in red paint on gas flap, (inside it), other TV
stuff like that, to a guy who took it to Europe , Austria I
think. Naturally have second thoughts, now. All of a sudden
those 57 Dodges (and those really sharp gold trimmed 57-58
Desoto Adventurers) are starting to rival our 300’s in
value. I think of them as mini 300’s , a little more
nimble, but very similar in driving . D500 had the stiff
springs, brakes etc . Never did find a D501, I heard they
made 50 .. Or a Regal Lancer , but saw two of the latter ,
D500 B block, Quads, around Boston when new.
The “life synchrony” of guys who love 300’s is
amazing, at some level…
I know Rob, ---you were really waiting for Wally, on leave
it to beaver…

I still remember the Dodge logo with the Forwardlook

Saturday nights! It was the only thing that could sustain
me watching Mr. Welk with the family until Leave It To

Hi, Don—
Did they call them that, though in 55? I remember 57 as
when Chrysler ads said that..and the cars meant it. With the
two interlocked triangles, or V’s Was it used by them
before 57?
I remember vividly how sharp a 57 dodge hardtop looked, when
first I saw it ---and it kept getting better. To me the
Regal Lancer trim package, in copper and black, or copper
and white was just beautiful (58) ..and 57 300C. Some cars
from brand X pretty good too 57 Ford Sunliner, 60 Buick
Electra 225 bucket seat convert (I have one of those..the
300F real competitor—and the only GM I ever really went
for) . 53 stude hardtop coupe had all those covered pretty
well too, 4 years before.. But I personally identify that
wording as 57..and I well may be wrong!!

To all the Sticklers our there (and that is meant as a
compliment),
Another error made by some members of the automotive press
is about the introductory year of THE FORWARD LOOK.
Some references say 1956 is the year, perhaps because of the
addition of the fins to all the Chrysler Corp. cars. Others
say 1957 because of the dramatic changes to the styling.
The correct year is 1955. That is when the first cars fully
designed by Virgil Exner made their debut.
So here's to 1955 and the cars of THE FORWARD LOOK.

Jack,
If your comment was addressed to me I guess I'd be a
"Stickler". I strongly believe in getting the
facts and stating them correctly.
Respectfully,
