Sorry i had to leave early guys, Amy was not feeling too good today anyways and had some stuff to do this afternoon. I was kind of expecting more of a turnout but hey its still better then the first couple times sam and i ended up on a date just the two of us LOL. Well hopefully by the next time i see all you the car will be one color. I put up plastic on the walls and ceiling of my garage tonight and plan on tearing the car apart tomorrow night and Tuesday night, then sand it Wednesday and Thursday night. Then paint this weekend as long as there is not much wind rain or freezing temps. If all goes to plan it might even have new suspension under it.

later
robby (WITH A "Y" SAM LOL)

There is a bitchin clean first gen for sale by me in Denver. White GSL-SE in very good shape. asking 4500 obo for it. I went and looked at it this evening. I can pm the tele # if you like. Located on Highway 16 just north of 150, less than 1 mile.

Sorry i couldn't make it today eveyone, I am going in for back surgery on Tuesday and had a bunch of loose ends and **** to take care of before I am out of action for a month Hopefully I will be back on my feet and driving by the next meet.

On a update note for my FD. I picked up a straight right side fender today in Asheville. I have made the decision to bite the bullet and put the FD down for a makeover. I will be replacing the radiator core support(bent in accident) and both front fenders. I am removing the sideskirts and rears and will leave them bare until I come up with something there.

I am doing the work myself, being taught by my friend( www.southerncyclewerks.com ..shameless plug) I plan on it taking the better part of this year as time will be my most limiting factor. We'll still be there in the FC though . On a side note, If any of you all are motorcycle people, I am a factory trained yamaha, Honda, Suzuki,Kawasaki tech with 10 + years. I am working with Drex At Southern Cycle werks doing service work to insurance claims. If anyone needs anything done , let me know. I will hook you up!!

Dave

Bangin meet. Those backroads were awesome, and scary like hell. As usual, something on my car needed fixing. But when the meet was over, I went back to Sam's for a Carb transplant. Now I am running the 600 holly that was on his SA.

Normally I don't like 4 barrels (I am a 2 barrel guy at heart) but this Holly is somethin. Finally, a smooth idle and great drivability. Oh and Sam, when the car is warm it bogs just a little bit now when you brake, didn't brake hard. Funny thing is, I never had to brake on the way home.


Oh, and PS: Chrysler 300C's are SLOWWW. Ask me how I know

Next meet is March 9th. Hopefully I will have some new things done to the car.

What??????Is a SA not to your taste? It's a shame. I would like a fellow rotor head to get this car, instead of some knuckle head. I had a blast today guys. I got some killer footage eating up the back roads. The only thing is, someone let my seat up a little (ahem Tim) and you can see my headrest in the bottom of the video the whole time. Still turned out awsome. The one road that I said where I spun out, I got that whole road on video.

It was the V6 model. Now, in an RX, it looks like someone is tailgating you when they arn't, cause the bumper is like 4 feet from your seat. Well I could not see this guys lights. Dropped it into third at 60, started pulling a little, shifted into fourth and kept it up until 100 and just walked away from him the whole way.

Its not the matter that he has over 100 more HP than me, its that I am a wedge and he is a brick.

This is true. However, the Chryslers without the Hemi are just known as the 300s i think

That was nice.......We had some good battles......I got some video of your backside when we went to look at that FC. I got to get this video edited and uploaded. After me and Stu did some Holley lovin', we watched the video probably 4 or 5 times before he left. I'm telling you guys. Some good back road carnage.

No, just the 300C. They have had the original C-300, then 300 B-M, then they brought the 300C back. Hemi 300C's are just that: A 300C Hemi
