Re: [Chrysler300] Video, 1957 New York Auto Show & a Virgil Exner tidbit.

Thanks for the video, John.  Great shots of what I might assume is  300C #1.  
(Don't know date of the NYC Auto Show to confirm)  
Fantastic connection on Ex.  Who were the gentleman's parents, I  
wonder?---His dad HAD to be in the automotive design business big time.

Also, I'm selling my  mother's '88 BMW 635CSi - Yesterday, a gentleman came 
to the house to lok at  it, saw the '59 Windsor I'm parting out, and the first 
thing he said was that  Virgil Exner was best man at his parent's wedding!  He 
also said another  designer from Raymond Loewy's staff was supposed to be 
there, but got caught  in a storm.
