CONGRATULATIONS Martha and Mick!! I, and many others in this Club, know the thrill of that very first time down the road. Quite enough reward for all the hard work. Hope to see the "B" in PA. 300ly, Gil Warm and a wee bit damp in Tallahassee. In a message dated 1/28/2009 2:07:29 P.M.

Twelve years after Martha and I started our quest to restore a red 300B and over 25 years since it last ran, our 300B cruised the highway. Last Friday the owner of the shop doing the final mechanical work and front end alinement approached me while I was settling our bill. He asked where I was going and I said to settle up with the upholstery shop about five miles away. He handed me a dealer plate and said drive the 300 to the upholstery shop and back to check out the alinement. He didn’t have to ask twice. What a great feeling to take such an awesome car on the highway. The 80+ year old gentleman who owns the upholstery shop was ecstatic to see the B and spent 45 minutes regaling me with tales of the 1957 300C he purchased new and drove for over ten years until it was totaled by a red light runner. His grin grew when I insisted he get behind the wheel and start the car. I think he is still grinning. The 300B is now getting its touchups, detailing and adjustments. Next stop the DMV for a license plate and some local break in miles. By the way, the alinement was perfect. Martha and I thank each and every club member who helped with this long term project. You will never know how much we appreciate your support.
