RE: [Chrysler300] Palo Alto Concourse

["Doug Warrener" <dwarrener@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gloria, I was there also with my H and wish to thank Larry for all of
his work in organizing the Letter Car exhibit. What a great concours! I
also had a 130+ mile trip from Sacramento. The drive down was flawless
and smooth thanks to new tires, but my drive home was not enjoyable. My
H started to overheat when I reached Rte 680 with the 100+ degree
temperatures. The "Letter Car God" was kind to me however since I didn't
start loosing coolant until I was 3 blocks from my garage! I think my
problem is a faulty fan clutch and possible a bad radiator cap. I have
purchased a new fan clutch from George Riehl and hope it arrives in time
for my 4th of July Parade.    Doug Warrener

Subject: [Chrysler300] Palo Alto Concourse



I was at the concourse last Sunday with my 1967 Imperial Convertible.
The 
featured marquee were 300's and Imperials. Larry Jett managed to locate 
one of each letter car except a "D". There were two "F's", Lou Barrie
(my 
neighbor) and another one in what looked like a gunmetal blue, in great 
condition. There was a black "J" that really looked nice, and a 300 pace

car, all the 300's looked great. Over 20 Imperials were present,
including 
Harry Hopkins' mauve dawn convertible. The show was on the Stanford
campus, 
and everything from pre WWI cars to an Enzo was there. The new Ford GT 
targa special made an appearance. I saw a Superbird, a hemi Charger, and

both a Chrysler CD6 and CD8, I remembered the topic at the Tahoe meet!
Well 
worth the drive from Los Angeles to attend. Very well organized show. I 
would recommend going to the show next year if you are in the San
Francisco 
Bay area. I drove Cal Highway 1 south from Monterey to Morro Bay, about
130 
miles of twisties. This was my Imperial's first time away from home, and

she performed flawlessly, I actually outran a newer Mercedes going down
the 
twisties. Passed five cars in one location. Really impressed with the 
handling, the power I knew would be there. Hadn't been on Highway 1 in
over 
25 years, forgot how gorgeous it is, and how challenging a drive.
