FYI - Feature article in today's "Hemmings Daily" is on the iconic Cunningham automobiles. Our fellow 300 Club member, Chuck Schoendorf, noted in this article, has assembled a historic group of Cunnigham's that will be displayed at the Greenwich, CT Concours, June 1-3, 2018. For those of you in the area, I'm sure this will be a unique and memorable opportunity to view these classics, and discuss their history, visitng with Chuck.
Those of you who attended last year's Geneva, NY Spring Meet met Chuck, and admired his wonderful Platinum '55 C-300.

From the seller's description: Selling as a package, you'll be hard fetched to find another deal like this, 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer: The 19871991 model years are considered the "best of the breed" due to a number of upgrades.

Its hood had been painted flat black by a previous owner, and, though it wasn't done professionally, from a few feet away it still looked good to us at the time. We cruised around in Joe's Javelin regularly.
