Re: [Chrysler300] The Beautiful Brute

[Andy Mikonis <r41hp@xxxx>]

Yes, Bill Carroll did the "Beautiful Brute" for C&D. 
I think Bob is referring to Ken Fermoyle, who was our
banquet speaker. He was with Popular Science back
then and is known for doing a road test of the
400HP/4-speed 300F. Chrysler also used him in a 300F
brochure...
