Re: [Chrysler300] Former member's passing

[Larry Jett <LarryWJett@xxxxxxxxx>]

I, too, was much influenced by Kent.  At the Oakland Roadster Show in the
middle 80's, there were two cars as a stand alone display.  Ebony and
Ivory.  One was Kents black C or D and the other was Buz Edies white 300 F.
 I kept coming back and back to gaze on those cars and intimately bought
and enjoyed both years although different colors.  I hosted a picnic for
all Bay Area 300 owners at a local park in the 90's  and Kent was there.
 What a Guy!
