McCandless Mopar Classic car show

Have to love that 57 kinda gets the dreams going about that 57 300 barn find in Detroit.

... Actually it's a '58 D... :yes:

The '57s had the full tail lights... Here's a '57 C that was in a Minnesota show a couple years back.



I really have a soft spot for about any '57/'58 Chrysler or DeSoto.

This is very strange. I saw your post just this AM while looking for something else.

On July 12, 2013, I was having lunch with a buddy of mine at the Carlisle Nationals. Herb McCandless walked up, noticed my 300 Club hat, and he stood there and talked with us for at least a half an hour. Later that day, I saw Herb again (and his son) at the 300 Club tent where we ogled Wolfer's Tahitian Coral '58 300-D.

Herb was very much alive that day. . .

I had a short chat with Herb that day too. He gave the Batwagon an ogle as well. He parks his Red "G" vert. in his own spot straight out from the grand stands but he walks the whole groundz. He'z got me by ten yearz and I can't do that! Me thinkest it haz somethin' tah do with too many yearz on dirt bikez?
