Re: {Chrysler 300} Accidental Clyde

Richard,

Outstanding accomplishment! Your new G will draw far more attention at car shows and cruise nights than any ‘63 Vette. 

Curious to hear how the mixup on lot #s occurred - if there was a glitch in RM Sotheby’s website. 

As other Club members have mentioned, we look forward to your joining us at our upcoming Meets, with your G.

So I wanted to share my story. 2 1/2 years ago while logging onto RM Sotheby’s action site to bid on a 63 Corvette ( I did not win} I inadvertantly and unaware, bid on and won a Chrysler 300G. Monday after the action I was notified of my purchase. My first reaction was that it was a scam and I contacted Sotheby’s to report it. After many emails and conversations and a few weeks later my “new” car arrived. Clyde was in need of a total restoration. Clyde gave me a purpose for the next 2 1/2 years. After removing all the trim interior and engine,  I hand stripped (aviation Paint Remover), repaired rust while removing and repairing many prior “repairs”. I followed this with 2k primer and single stage paint in original Alaskan White. I sent the engine out for restoration while I started the interior work. Materials from Quirey”s, sent the bumpers to be re-chromed. Sourced polished or repaired most of the damaged trim while I sorting and rebuilding the instruments and electrical. Got the whitewalls from Coker. 

This past weekend drove it around the block. I am sorting the brakes now. Thank a look.
