Probably true for the most part, although I’m sure there were some
exceptions back in the day. It would be interesting to hear if anyone has
some tales of “the woman who drove the letter car” (other than Vicki Wood) when
they were “new.” The article “The Chrysler Lettercars” by Allan Girdler
from Automobile Quarterly back in the 1970’s tells the tale of how his
wife had so much difficulty with their C.
Anyway, in the case of my own family, my Dad and I looked at a used 300E at
the Chrysler dealer in Naperville, Il back in the very early 1960’s. It
was black, I think, and the first letter car I ever saw. I really can’t
remember the episode, however, as I was only three or four. But I was a
car guy even then. Anyway, Mom would have nothing of the sort. She
had enough trouble starting the ‘56 Windsor Nassau they drove. Dad had
installed a manual choke on it for some reason. Mom never figured out how
to use it properly.

Soccer moms were not invented when the letter cars were new. They would not be driving such an impractical car even if they were. __._,_.___ To send a message to this group, send an email to: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to bob@xxxxxxxxxxxxx or go to http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Chrysler300/join and select the "Leave Group" button For list server instructions, go to http://www.chrysler300club.com/yahoolist/inst.htm For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/search.htm#querylang
