300 Club Member Ward Gandy of Redding in far northern CA is holding an online auction for a whole slug of ‘30’s-‘70’s cars. Take a virtual trip through his pasture and you might spot a restorable or parts car to help your 300 or other project along.
I see the ‘64K has red rams. Can anyone confirm whether red or Chrysler blue is appropriate for the J&K rams? My ram K parts coupe came to me with red rams/exhaust heated.
A lot of glass has been busted out, but many of the cars may just be surface rusty. Our roster shows Gandy has/had a B, also, but not evident in the listing.
Nice Tango Red ’55 NY coupe—would make a good donor body.
Nice black ‘57C coupe 3N571116
Very tired 62H coupe —can’t tell if engine is there.
Tired ’64 sport coupe with white buckets, listed as a ’63 trim & bumpers may be OK.
Decent looking ’64 wagon—does not appear to have a/c.
Restorable ‘64K coupe with a/c & rams-in our registry-- looks like white respray over black but in registry as WWI 8443222934 One might pick up a bargain ram engine car here.
Tired 300L coupe C453 128361
Lots of Caddy’s, Strudelbaker’s, Willy’s, De Soto’s, Imperials, NY & Windsor parts cars. Looks like someone trying to capture the glory of the past. Can you imagine that?
Bring a trailer. Thanks to Terry in NE for pointing this auction out.

Gandy may be the winner with the most (if not the best) toys.
Update on my 300K with the mushy brakes: The re-rebuild of the remote power brake booster resulted in a firm pedal with a blocked outlet, but the second set of new wheel cylinders is also leaking. Attributed to poor quality of cups, iron or both. I and my mechanic are getting frustrated. Gone through 2 gallons of brake fluid.
