Default Re: June 12th Chrysler Meet

what a great show!we talked to lots of old-timers that have a connection almost back to the beginnings of chrysler.lots of cars that i have read about but have never seen.there was a nash healey in attendance from 1953.also a 7/8 scale version of a 1933 cord.it was produced by a rubber company(name i forget) that produced the body panels incorporating rubber.powered by ....wait.... an air cooled corvair engine.the old timer was an engineer with chrysler....his sons are now doing the same.the father of the old guy worked with horace dodge.the museum tour was outstanding.the concept cars were very rare and beautiful. lots of well informed tour guides who knew their stuff.the staff at the show were very friendly.several x-fires in attendance ....great company....and a super time had by all.
harber thanks for putting us on to this show.....it was great.
we then wrapped up the hot humid day with a cool swim back at the hotel.....and then deep dish pizza in greek town in downtown detroit.
this is a great show for chrysler lovers to consider for next year.
