Re: [Chrysler300] Gilles Guinee french member

[moparpjf@xxxxxxx]

I had the pleasure of helping Gilles with some parts several years ago,.  
and we continued our correspondence from time to time.  He was a very nice  
man who, as Rafael says, was totally dedicated to restoring his F. I extend  
my sympathies to his family and the French club as well.

Today I  had a sad news, a long time french member Gilles Guinee passed 
away from a  sudden heart attack ,he was less than 50.
Gilles had a 300F he found in  1982 nearby his place in the west side of 
France.
I met him about 20 years  ago because I wanted to buy his car but he always 
refused to sell it. So  instead of getting a car I got a friend. He was a 
very nice and friendly guy,  his lifetime dream was to achieve the 
restoration of his 300F.
He has never  been daunted by the difficulties of such an extensive 
restoration project. By  the beginning of this year he was very exited because a 
friend was helping him  to have the car running and after all these years ,at 
last the D day seems to  be closer.
Unfortunately he will never have the luck to drive his cherised  car before 
leaving.
I will never forget the trip we made together to  Goowood england where we 
were involved in the letter car parade on the race  track. He was like a kid 
in a toy store.
He is survived by 3 young children  and his wife Karin.
