Hi to all from white and snowy Sag Harbor ! Please respond directly to Jeff Koch (meeshy@xxxx) if you are interested in having your 300 appear in Hemmings Muscle Machines magazine ! Please DO NOT reply to me - I know no more than what it says in his e-mail ! Sincerely John Hertog Sag Harbrrrr NY ----- Original Message ----- From: <meeshy@xxxx> To: <chrysler300@xxxx>; <crossram@xxxx> Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 1:19 PM Subject: 300s WANTED FOR NATIONAL MAGAZINE > Hi: > My name is Jeff Koch, and I am a California-based writer for Hemmings Publishing, including the brand-new glossy magazine Hemmings Muscle Machines. If you haven't seen it, HMM is a musclecar magazine that covers all factory (and some aftermarket) performance cars from 1949 to present, with an emphasis on the little-seen and underappreciated marques. In the four issues we've done thus far, we've featured a number of Mopar models, including a drag-prepped FWD 300, though no letter-series cars ... yet. We have had excellent response from readers who are tired of seeing the same-old same-old, and HMM certainly is NOT the same-old! > HMM's editor, Richard Lentinello, has sent me on a mission: he wants factory-fresh (restored or unrestored, no matter as long as it's clean) original 300s in the pages of that magazine, and sooner rather than later. He would like to run the gamut, from early models through the '70 models, and even the '80 "Cordoba" 300. We are also interested in tastefully-modified vehicles as well as factory "freaks" (ie option combos that weren't supposed to happen, particularly if they are of a performance bent)--especially if they have not been seen in a national magazine previously. > Can you possibly connect me with the owners of clean, original muscle 300s of ANY stripe, who might be interested in seeing their car in a nationally published magazine? I'd love to communicate with them, particularly if they are in the Southern California area (although anywhere on the Pacific Coast and into desert regions like Phoenix and Vegas will work for me too). Assuming the owners don't live in the snow belt I can pop around to take my own shots, I just need some quickie jpegs and a couple of words about how long they've owned it, how original it is, any performance parts added, etc. > Any story we do will of course give your club and/or site, and any others the car owner feels is helpful to a Chrysler 300 fan, a plug in the magazine. If you could, please post, print or forward my email address: jkoch@xxxx, to any interested parties, who may contact me at their leisure. > > I thank you in advance for your time and consideration. > > Sincerely. > > Jeff Koch > West Coast Associate Editor > Hemmings Muscle Machines > >
