Re: [Chrysler300] Beats me

I'm all but 100% certain that cars sold in California had to have one-piece bumpers, at least in front, by state law. I had a '55 Chevy w/ a one-piece front bumper. Because all the '55s I had seen had three-piece bumpers, I tracked down the reason.

The 1960 front bumper.

Were there two styles? 

I checked the FSM and Hollander's interchange.

Both show the same three piece design -- center section

and right - left bumper wing extensions.

But I dimly remember there might have been a different style,

possibly a one piece. 

Anybody know?

In the Letter Car days of 1955-1965, where did Chrysler

make its money? 

I've heard that Imperial convertibles were losers

due to the work required for so few units, but

justified by the need to maintain an entry in that

market segment. 

This leads me to wonder if  Letter Cars 

were money makers

or money losers for the corporation?

These questions keep me awake at night.

The answers? 

Beats me.

Now that I think about it, maybe the best place

to find answers is the Minnesooooooota meet.

Another reason to make your plans to attend.

July 3 deadline is next Wednesday.

See you there.

Bob
