I second Bob's comments! - Great to see Peter's sweet '61 Newport on the cover of HCC's December issue. Only one typo in the article - Peter's sedan clearly weighs more than the 3,059# reported.

Was great to first see Peter's outstanding Newport and visiting with him at last November's huge MCACN (Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals) Show, by O'Hare. Peter's was one of four 'crossram' Mopars at that show - Peter's '61 Newport, Mike Woodard's 300-G, Danny Plotkins '61 Plymouth and a '61 Dart. Peter's Newport looks as good, or better, in person as it does in Hemmings' feature. In addition, our Club members - Joe Jordan with his '70 Road Runner convertible and Mike Paipal with his '62 Dart - displayed their beauties. Looking forward to see what's displayed at this year's show, coming up in mid-November.

Wow!
My Hemmings Classic Car came yesterday, and what a joy it was to see the beautiful ’61 Newport on the cover. Congratulations to Peter Pellicani for the recognition his ’61 Chrysler deserves. I love the fact that his Dad ordered the car new specifically with the 3 speed manual, and it has stayed in the family all these years. I particularly liked Peter’s description of how the crossram 413 performs in the shorter Newport body, especially with the stock Sure-Grip 3:58 rear end. Great job Peter, your Dad would be proud.
