Subject: DaimlerChrysler Announcement
Hi, gang,
Did you hear the latest from the big D? DaimlerChrysler teamed up
with Celine Dion for a multi-year partnership for marketing,
promotional, and advertising opportunities. Scheduled to launch in
early 2003 with TV, print, and internet exposure. What do ya think
of that? The 21st century Richardo Montalban, only with a better
voice !!
Mark

Hi, all
Had occasion to see some work done by Tri-City. I was not impressed, at
all, at all, and would not let them touch anything that would go on one of
my cars. Just my 2 cent's worth.

John,
Sorry to say that I must disagree with you here.... the stuff I have seen
returned from them so far has been phenomenal! I plan on using them myself.

Subject: Re: Chrome, Where to go
Club,
I'm local to Tri City Plating. So I call a couple of local body shops
that are "Mopar" guys. They said that Tri City Plating changed hands a
couple of years ago and now specialize in bumpers. They don't want to
do pot metals or small items. I asked their recommendation and both
said, "I'd send my parts somewhere else."

Just my two cents on that.
Can't say I'm jumping for joy over Celine Dion representing our Beloved
Chrysler (OK, Daimler-Chrysler) Corp. She may have a better voice than
Recardo but unfortunately she has an Ego the size of an Imperial. She's dumb
as dirt to boot.........poor choice I'd say but time will tell.

I had all my chrome done by Classic Chrome in Clearwater, FL. Not the
cheapest in the world and you wait forever for the parts to come back. But
they did a wonderful job on my H.

Subject: RE: DaimlerChrysler Announcement
Having never met Celine Dion, I have no opinion as to her intellect. However, I should think she would be an ideal spokesperson for DaimlerChrysler, as she appeals to both the 'youth market' and the older folks (certainly my 55 year old self) and has an international following appropriate for an international auto maker. Further, she is glamorous, an incredibly talented singer, an energetic performer, and a recognized pop icon all over the world. To sell the 300N, DC will need to pitch heritage, power, style, and prestige not only to the young (so they can aspire towards owning one) but also to the not so young who can afford to buy one now (hope that's me) and can relate to the 300 heritage (that's us!). Celine with her hair billowing behind in the Hemi-C convertible, singing 'Beauty and the Beast'? I can dig it!
Those old Cordoba ads made Ricardo Montalban a household name. Celine already is a household name. I will be fascinated to see if her French Canadian accent sells cars as well as Ricardo's Spanish accent did ... and whether she will pitch 300's or upmarket Mercedes models - or both.

Subject: Chrome--where to go??
Just read two or three posts on Tri-City Plating, a plus, a big minus and an explanation that the place changed hands and is now doing bumpers only. That sums up my experience with more than one chromer--good to great for quite some time, then problems/trouble, then gone or switched to bumpers.
Hence, the oft repeated topic of "Where to go for good chrome?"
A good reference may only be reliable for a short time, alas.
Currently using San Jose Polishing and Plating here in CA, kind of local for me(50 miles), but also using Triiple Plate Chrome in Spokane, WA, for my 60 Imp being restored in Kalispell, MT. Great work, but very expensive, repeat very expensive,and not very good with timing.. Had, or having, (been since last April) the bumpers done, but probably will pay the freight to have the rest sent to me here as I don't feel too confident on the long distance thing. Just think 2500 for Imp bumpers, large though they may be, is way high. I have argued back and forth and am holding to $1800 but I think I'll be stuck with $2000. Supposedly does Pebble Beach quality chrome, so since I wanted to pay less, the quality will be lowered--something like double plate, not triple plate--a different bit of patter each time I talk with the chromer. So much for being an 'absentee" restorer. Guess if one is in that role, one is considered a really big bucks pigeon.

Her nose reminds me of the sign painters nose (big enough to hang by so that you can paint with both hands). Also if you call that syrup that she puts out as music, you probably loved Pat Boone or Neal Sedaka as a youth and disliked Elvis or Johnny Cash. For me I would rather see Willy Nelson promoting 300's. At least would not give appearance of a sissy car.

Subject: A/C piece needed
For our '62 300 we need the driver's side Air Conditioning item that
connects the flex hose under the dash to the pop up vents.
It's a plastic piece that splits the single flex hose into 2 ways for
the dash pop up vents.
Anyone have one to sell or know of who I should contact for one?
Thanks!
