Re: [Chrysler300] 300C side trim

I really should have looked at the old Gary Goers catalog before bothering the Club members about this, although it's easy to forget that Quirey has (at least partially) taken over Gary's business because they haven't put out a new catalog under their name and have remained largely invisible.  It turns out that the big side medallion and the "300 C" numbers/letters are indeed listed in Gary's Catalog #10 (although it's probably at least 8 years old).  I will call Quirey to see if they are now carrying those parts.

Club member Michel Bilodeau pointed me to an eBay listing for these pieces, which totaled $280 - the price for the same in Gary's (admittedly old) catalog comes to $136 - about half!  You can tell that Gary was doing his business largely for the love and devotion to the Letter Cars, and was clearly NOT getting rich from it!   Hope he's doing better with the horrible progression of his medical problems.

Years ago, I bought the red, white and blue large plastic medallions from Gary Goers. Hopefully, Quirey has some of Gary's old stock, or has ordered a fresh supply.

Ray,

Try Quirey for these. The numbers and the ‘C’ are parts #CHR2 and CHR3 in Gary Goers’ catalog. Not sure if they have the 5” side plastic.

Hello Group -

I'm looking for one (1) of the large 5-inch-diameter red/white/blue
plastic inserts that go in the big round chrome bezel between the long
and short stainless steel "spears" on the side of the 1957 Chrysler
300.  Also need the chrome  "300 C" letters that go on the tricolor
insert.   Any ideas?
