So sorry to here about your car. I'm going to a couple of salvage yards
in the next few days. I'll keep my eyes open for you. I will take photos of
anything worth looking at and e-mail them to you. I seriously doubt I will
find anything rust free, but the old cars don't do too bad in our
climate. Surface rust mostly. Have a blessed day.

Subject: [FWDLK] A sad day
I was out driving today on the freeway today
when an, apparantly, delirious old lady suddenly, and with no warning,
decided to cross from the right shoulder across two lanes onto the two lanes
in the opposite direction. Or, at least that was she was trying to do.
Instead she hit my 55 New Yorker St.Regis dead center on the right hand side
daming both foront and rear fenders as well as the door. I tried to
stear away, but really did,t have a chance. Luckily I managed to get hold of two witnesses who saw the whole
ting. The woman later admitted to the police that she didt,t remeber wahat
had happened and that she was to blame.
So now it's up the insurance people. I am
certain that I will not be blamed. Whats worring me though, is that the
insurance compoany might want to scrap it. That would probably leave me with
15 - 20 000 dollars in cash, but no more 55 Chrysler. Not that its
impossible to fix, but it certainly will be very costly.
If anay body has any information about a
rustfree body, either from a 55 Chrysler or DeSoto hardtop I would
aprreciate it.
