Subject: 300 books
Found a book vendor @ Kruse Auburn auction this weekend selling the
following titles for those of you who have been searching for these titles
with little or no luck:
CHRYSLER 300 - AMERICA'S MOST POWERFUL CAR by Robert C. Ackerman
(hardbound)
and CHRYSLER 300 GOLD PORTFOLIO 1955 - 1970 ( a collection of road tests
from many magazines covering all models - softcover) by R.M. Clarke.
Vendor said he had plenty of each in stock and should be contacted at:
MIDLIFE CLASSIC CARS
4233 CAROL ANN DRIVE
CHARLOTTE, N.C. 28215
PHONE/FAX (704) 598-5113
OR EMAIL AT
MIDLIFECLASSICCARS.COM
MIDLIFE #'s are B01527 for the Ackerson book ($26) and B00080 for the
Clarke book ($21).
Looked for the (2) 300G's that were consigned for auction but
didn't
see them. Have to check the auction results to see what they were bid to.

The company I got my belts from and the supplier Bob Merritt referred to
is
Andover Automotive Corp www.andoauto.com
I do not have the packing slip showing the part #, but their web site is
good in showing what bits and pieces are needed.

Subject: 300F Terra Cotta
Here are the serial # of the three cars that went through Barrett Jackson.
The fourth car is the one in question in Texas.
1996 8403156821
1996 8403111063
1998 8403110619
I dont have my registry handy to determine if these are listed in the
clubs
data base. this info would confirm if in fact they started as Terra Cotta
cars.

Subject: 300F seatbelts
I found my packing slip for the belts I ordered from Andover Automotive.
www.andoauto.com
The part numbers on their web site are not the same Numbers they put on
the
packing slip
Here is what they sent:
2 82320 or 823201 75" belt Satan/ black
2 82220 or 822201 60" belt satan/black
4 Mh-2 Install bolt kits
I have provided two numbers on each line as it is not clear on the packing
slip if the"1" at the end of each number replaces the "0" or is added to
it.
There is another style of belt that uses a different type of fastener. The
kind I got is an ordinary bolt the other kind is an eylet.
I would send a picture of the installation if anyone wishes.
Belts are available in a variety of colors. I chose black
as it compliminted the tan/black interior.
