After a recent article ran in Old Cars Weekly about one that was found in the A.K. Miller collection, a statement that it might be the lone survivor prompted a response. As it turns out, there is at least one more of this nearly extinct breed.

The 1961 Chrysler 300G

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=4&m=4024641&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTc3MjMwS0&mt=1&rt=0 Car Life called the Chrysler 300G "the best road car on the market." Chrysler called it "the brand-new 1961 version of Chrysler's championship breed of rare motorcars. The 300G could do 0-to-60 mph in 8.4 seconds, and 0-to-100 mph in 21.2 seconds.

The quarter mile took a mere 16.2 seconds at 87.4 mph. Top speed of the 300G was reported by Car Life to be 131 mph. At Daytona, a 300G running with the optional 2.93:1 axle ratio won the NASCAR Flying Mile Championship with a two-way average of 143.0 mph. A 300G also won the NASCAR Standing Mile Championship with a speed of 90.7 mph.

No matter what you called it...there was no question that it was FAST!

Destined for Daytona: A special ride to the starting line!
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=28&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0When most people buy a new car off a dealer's lot, they use it to fetch groceries, drive to work and carry their family to church. Not Bernie Hentges. When the 22-year-old bought a gleaming new 1959 De Soto, it was with one thing in mind — racing at the newly built Daytona International Speedway. But a snowstorm complicated his journey from Minnesota to Florida, so he did what he had to do: he drove his racing car all the way to the race track.

What's the REAL story behind that "rare" LaSalle truck
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=8&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0In the March 12 issue, Old Cars Weekly featured a unique 1933 LaSalle truck with the Henney coachbuilder's name stamped in the tailgate. In the story, I pondered the history of the truck. Was it a funeral vehicle? Was it a transporter for a Cadillac and LaSalle dealer? Was it Henney's own in-plant vehicle? None of these turned out to be the case.

Spring in Jefferson: Honoring the cars of '69
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=11&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0For their 32nd annual Jefferson Swap Meet on April 25-26, event producer Madison Classics will honor the year with steel and rubber representing the last year of the swinging '60s. The show, which will be held at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in Jefferson, Wis., will feature vehicles built in 1969 with a display in the fairgrounds' main activity center.

Country Classics owner cultivating cars instead of crops
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=22&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0 Country Classics, one of the nation's largest collector car operations, was started 10 years ago by Russ Noel and his wife in southern Illinois. The couple planned to split their time between farming and peddling old cars.

That arrangement lasted a few years, but the car business, which started on the family's Edwardsville farm, ballooned and became too big to handle as a part-time gig.

Waterlogged museum recovers with lots of help from friends

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=45&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0 A group of dedicated volunteers did some heavy lifting lately to help the National Automotive & Truck Museum (NATMUS) get back on its feet after some damaging flooding in Auburn, Ind.

NATMUS borders a creek that overflowed and found its lower level, which houses about 110 vehicles, drenched in 14 to 18 inches of muddy water.

Saga of the EX-122
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=51&m=4023344&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1NTQ4NTE2S0&mt=1&rt=0For decades, the car has been known as EX-122. It's part of the Kerbeck Brothers' collection in Atlantic City, N.J. It is the car in which the first V-8 was developed for the Corvette, but this car may also be the famous GM Motorama Corvette. If so, it's the very car displayed at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, in New York City, in January of 1953.

We also have some evidence that EX-122, although built for show, was the car that Chevrolet counted as the first of the 300 Corvettes numbered for the 1953 model year.

The 1930 Cadillac V-16 Fleetwood

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=2&m=4010605&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1MjY5NTY1S0&mt=1&rt=0 America was sliding into an economic disaster called the Great Depression when the 1930 Cadillacs arrived in September 1929. The Cadillac V-8 was enlarged to 353 cubic inches, which created a new Series 353 line. But in December came the big news: Cadillac management announced that a new line powered by a 452-cubic-inch V-16 was being readied for the New York Automobile Salon in January 1929. A five-passenger Imperial Landau Sedan was the only car actually exhibited at that venue. The V-16 utilized a 148-inch wheelbase. But before long, an array of 54 semi-custom body styles by Fleetwood were available.

Thus the famed Cadillac V-16 was born.

Issue 2: Sheet Metal Basics

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=43&m=4010601&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1MjY5NTIyS0&mt=1&rt=0 Sheet metal work falls into two realms: manual arts and technical skills. The strategies for and operations of removing complex deformations (a.k.a. "dents") from sheet metal body parts are so variable as to make choosing between them an art in itself.

There is usually no single correct approach to such a complex task, and various approaches may produce virtually equal results. Of course, there are also numerous substandard or incorrect approaches to this work that can hide original damage while actually producing further, hidden damage.

The result of all of this is that good sheet metal work requires a study of basic technical factors, experience in the actual work and imagination and ingenuity in approaching some of the more difficult problems posed by sheet metal repair.

Like many rarities in the A.K. Miller collection, it was hidden away for decades.

Okay, so this one isn't about old cars. It's about a wild pig and a motorcycle that collided on a dark highway in the middle of the night. Drivers of all types, however, will certainly find it interesting because of the broader implications.

OCW 'salvage hound' Ron Kowalke has been out sniffing around again. This time, the Junkyard Dog found a Dodge City salvage lot whose owner of few words has a yard full of old vehicles that speaks volumes about his 50 years in the business.

Car of the Week: The 1970 LS6 Chevelle

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=2&m=4001167&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE1MDQ2MTcwS0&mt=1&rt=0 Only the good die young. The "bad" cars like the SS 396 kept going, but sometimes even they had to make adjustments to keep up with the competition. By 1970, the SS 396 was becoming a classic. It had been around since 1966 and was no longer the fastest muscle car in town. To keep the Chevelle in the muscle car race, Chevy had to do something drastic in 1970. The result was the legendary SS 454 LS6 option — probably the king of the jungle when it comes to classic muscle cars.

CLICK HERE to learn more about the 1970 LS6 Chevelle.

Missing Hell's Angel collection headed to block
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=31&m=3998922&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE0OTk3MzU0S0&mt=1&rt=0 The vintage car collection of a missing Canadian and former Hell's Angel will be up for auction April 24-25.

Cedric Baxter Smith is presumed dead by family and friends. He is one of 17 full-patch members of the Vancouver chapter of the Hells Angels and had amassed an enviable collection of vintage vehicles that included Pierce Arrows, Buicks, Cadillacs and more.

CLICK HERE for more information about the auction

 

Deliver me from evil:
Angelo's eerie salvage experience
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=29&m=3998922&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE0OTk3MzU0S0&mt=1&rt=0 It was a dark and stormy night .... well, not really, but the latest salvage yard experience of OCW Editor Angelo Van Bogart was a spooky trip through the "bone yard." Check out why in one of his latest blogs, along with another blog gushing over the debut of Hurst Challengers. AND check out his great photo collection of cars from the 1957 Chinese New Year's Parade in San Francisco's China Town.

The cure for Corvette fever
 

http://links.mkt230.com/ctt?kn=7&m=3998922&r=NzIxNTUxMDk4S0&b=0&j=MTE0OTk3MzU0S0&mt=1&rt=0Henry and Naomi Rehfeldt have seen a lot of Ford hot rods, cool Chevy customs and several sweet stockers come and go, but it's the 1961 Chevrolet Corvette that Henry sold and misses the most.

So what happens when you lose your first love? Why, you go out and find another to replace it, of course. The Rehfeldts bought their second Corvette, a 1964 Sting Ray, from the showroom floor ... then never let it go.
