I received the edited e-mail below seeking a suitable candidate for an upcoming Concours. If you have a suggestion you may respond to this post or e-mail me at this address: mark.kubancik@twc.com
Dear Mark,
My name is Tony Hossain and I am on the Vehicle Selection Committee for the St. Johns Concours d’Elegance, held each year in Plymouth, Michigan. For this year’s event, which will be held on Sunday, July 26, we are featuring a special class called Auto Show ’55.
We are specifically seeking a concours-quality 1955 DeSoto. Do you know of any ’55 DeSotos that may fit the bill?
We are also looking for an outstanding 1955 Chrysler 300 and 1955 Plymouth Belvedere. We think the Chrysler is a “must-have” for our “Auto Show ’55” class and an outstanding 55 Plymouth Belvedere (any body style) would be a “nice to have.”
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Tim...will the '55 sedan you are restoring be ready for a July show?
Mark Kubancik
Thanks for that compliment Mark. We completed the '55 and it is home in TX. Our customer's goals were for a really nice driver, though.
It's supposed to be fun!
