We feel bad to have Merle Wolfer stepping down from the position of Editor, Historian and Librarian. Merle is a wonderful humble man who instantly earned my respect upon our first meeting. He started out as contributing editor approximately 10 years ago when Ken Smith was president. He then took over the position after Ken left. In the 10 years Merle has been doing our Brute Force I know of 3 plus Golden Quill Awards he earned for our magazine. Thank you Merle. Merle also found his replacement, Dr. Tony Rinaldi. This is amazing. The time I met Tony was at The Laguna Seca Raceway at the Joint meet in Carmel. He was in the back seat of my 300 Convert grabbing his hat and screaming, “Where are the Seat Belts,” As we were skidding sideways around corner after corner on the track. Well we all survived the fun time on the track. Although I was worried Tony would never speak with me again. (By the way, I still have all 4 hubcaps. Woohoo. ) Tony also took some great movies from the back seat looking over the hood. Thanks Tony. Tony Rinaldi would be much appreciative if all the CLUB CONSULTANTS would contact him either by email or by phone to help him come up with subjects in the upcoming publications. Tony’s information is on our website or awrdoc@yahoo.com. Watch for the future magazines as I have been promised some VERY NICE CHANGES. Another Thank You to Merle, he has agreed to stick around as Contributing Editor and is not leaving our Family of 300 Motor Heads. Plan on Chrysler 300 Club Inc. 2014 Event June 4th – June 8th, Kokomo, Indiana and The White Sands 300 Classic meet at the Farfield Inn & Suites, 300 Panorama Blvd. Alamogordo NM. Sept 17 to 21, 2014. (Did you get that Address?) So much more to tell you but I am running out of space so I best say Farewell until next time. Check out our website, it is changing, possibly online Brute Force added. Happy Safe Motoring to you all. May the Best of Good Health be yours.

I have been editor of Brute Force for 10 years so it's time to bring in some new talent. Tony Rinaldi has accepted the position of editor and I will be assisting in the transition. From time to time I may also contribute to the magazine. I have enjoyed my time as editor and have met many of you as I traveled around the country attending various meets. I do intend to continue attending meets and enjoying the people and cars. I'll see you down the road, Merle Members of our Chrysler 300 Club, Inc. receive, learn from and thoroughly enjoy this magazine. The Chrysler 300 Club, Inc. and its members are proud of the magazine and Merle’s recent Golden Quill Award and offer our congratulations to him and to all the car magazine editors that work so hard to help us all enjoy our hobby. Merle has been working with me in the goal of transitioning to the Brute Force editorship for the next issue. I will need the assistance of the members in an attempt to keep the quality at its current high level. This magazine has always been by the members as well as for the members. I would like to introduce 4 new regular quarterly sections and ask that you submit material to me for consideration. Digitized hi resolution photos are a necessity when possible. Or send me your Kodak moments and I will scan them for you. Just don’t expect the originals back. My 300: Articles about member’s 300s before, during and/or after restoration. Don’t forget nicknames and stories to go along with your photos. Consultants’ Corner: There are 20 different categories for letter and non-letter series 300s. Surely, we can get these knowledgeable consultants to contribute the FAQs and answers, from members, regarding reoccurring issues with their 300s. Tech Talk: Articles from members regarding tech fixes and “work arounds” for various technical issues with their 300s. The “doctor is in” sort of thing. Vintage 300 Ads: Submit a favorite 300 ad by Chrysler from period magazines or dealer promotional material. I am also looking for a creative person, with a sense of humor, who can draw cartoons relating to 300s and the collector car hobby in general. That is all that I can think of for now. I am confident going forward because not only am I standing on Merle’s shoulders, but am confident that “he has my back” for support and assistance whenever I need it.

This was not unusual as Randy could be counted on to keep things lively and even entertaining. Legend has it that Randy found a 300F convertible and dragged it home. If you don’t know about Randy he owns a Sand and Gravel business. So the story was told that this particular 300F convertible came out of a gravel pit. While we can’t verify this ancient history the car certainly looked as if it could have been stored in a gravel pit or similar hideout. 300K coupe at our Placerville Meet with hay bale on the back. This is 2nd gen. Emmett With the car in his possession Randy set about making the car run so that it could be driven but he didn’t do very much else. This was long before people were getting excited about barn find cars, plus of course, this was a gravel pit find and there was no category for them yet. Once the car could be driven Randy strapped a bale of hay on the back, put some landscaping tools in the car and a front license plate that said Emmett. Rumor has it that he drove it around his neighborhood and often parked it on the street to improve his neighborhood and impress his neighbors. Front license plate says “Emmett Lives”. This is the work of Randy Hastie, one of our resident jokesters. 300F convertibles are not common cars so after Emmett had served its demeaning role as hay hauler, etc., Randy did the right thing and restored the car to show condition. Today, it is a proud show queen, keeping company with other high class cars. I’m sure it would want to keep its rough and tumble past as quiet as possible. The 300K on this page is a 2nd generation Emmett. We dug through the archives and found this photo of the original Emmett taken at our Carson City, Nevada show in 1986. Pag ePage 6 Brute Force: July-September, 2013 What’s Wrong With This Picture? Here is a trivia quiz about Chrysler 300s that will be pretty obvious to 300K owners but may challenge the rest of you. So sharpen your powers of observation and look at the picture. Something in the photo just isn’t right. Can you decide what it is? Now don’t peek at the answer. ANSWER: The car is a 63 Chrysler with a 64 grille. The 64 Chrysler 300 uses a different front bumper, does not have individual Chrysler letters on the hood but does have a chrome strip that runs down the center of the hood. More trivia. Did you know that the 63 Chryslers used the same bumper front and rear? That bumper was carried over to 64 and was used on the rear of the 64 also.

We completed the drive on Wednesday and it was sunny and about 80 degrees when we arrived. The weather remained perfect for the remainder of our visit with sunny, warm days during all of our tours and events. In top right photo Cecil Moore explains to Merle Wolfer how he got Virgil Exner’s hat, (kidding). Lower photo shows an assortment of cars in the parking lot of the museum on Thursday. Thursday we traveled out in the country on our Gold Country tour to Coloma where we went through the Gold Discovery Museum. There is a lot of western history here. After lunch aboard the Old Delta King Ferry Boat we had a private tour of the railroad museum in old town Sacramento. After the museum we resumed our tour and had lunch at the Diamond Springs Hotel. In between all of these events of course there were stories to tell and many stories there were for sure. After lunch the tour moved on to Sutter Creek to browse through the town. Again, the old west and its history was the theme. And then, suddenly, it was Saturday and showtime. Friday morning the group was on tour before 9am to travel a few miles for a chance to see a prominent car collection in Northern California. This is an excellent collection with some rare cars including Mopars. Pag ePage 9 Brute Force:July-September, 2013 Lining up the cars, top, and Larry Zappone’s 56 DeSoto Pace Car, bottom photo.
