Well, I am hoping you don't expect to see a car in the condition of the 300C. At this time, my 1969 Charger resides in my storage garage on a lift pretty much as I bought it.
I obtained this car about 12 years ago when it was discovered one block away from the house I had newly purchased at the time. Although I had driven by it many times, it was covered with a tarp and it wasn't until the end of the tarp blew up on top the decklid during a rain storm that it was clear what it was. It didn't take long to inquire about it, and the guy was actually thinking about selling it then anyway. I got if for a shameful price! A pretty untouched original with about 90K miles on it and it drives fine. At this point my body/paint guy has done some rust repair, a new trunk floor and some lower rear quarter work, but other than that it remains in the queue awaiting its turn for a complete restoration. It will be pretty straightforward. You will have to visualize what it will eventually look like at this point.

I realize I show a lot of photos, but my intent is to keep up the enthusiasm for all these cars and for the purposes of the new members and others that come to this site. The way I see it, I am only a caretaker for these cars until the next guy comes along, and while they are my hobby, they are not the most important things in life for me. I believe these are just some very fine examples of the creativity and design excellence of the folks at the former Chrysler Corporation. I am grateful for the cars I have but I also can't take them with me. So I feel I should share them from time to time and hope it doesn't bother anyone (besides Dave
).
