[Scarbs]

I want to welcome everyone to our little spot on the 300 forum and say Thanks for stopping by.
So
Thank You.

The first thing we have to do is get to know each other a little and why we bought this car.
I’ll Start…..

My name is Eric Scarbro and I live north of Chicago in Waukegan.
I’ve been here since 1989 when my parents and I bought a house after I graduated Highschool.
They both pasted this year so now it’s just me and my wife of 10yrs Amy.
She’s a great gal she’s learned enough about cars I can talk to her about it.
She loves driving the 300C to work in North brook the drive down highway 41 is great she’s all the time telling me about the people looking at the car and the ones that “try” to race her.

I’m a toy collector so I spend a lot of time playing with toys so this car is one big toy for me.
I also make my own toys. Mostly Action Figuers and Gi-joe stuff.
We have a house full of animal to many to name.UGH.
That a little about me now to why I got the car.
I saw the first commercail for the 300 and knew I had to get one. I just didn’t know when or how.
Well my Dad got sick in January so the car was out of the question I had to many thing to do to think about that. I keep thinking thou some day. Well it wasn’t long after Dad got sick that it turned worse and he pasted in April. He did one last thing after his death for me.Which he had been planing since I was born. He had taken out lot’s of life Insuance. I was able to pay off every thing I needed to and had enough left over to put on the Car. This car is the Car me and him never got to restore. We had talked about doing a 56 Bel-Air his favorite car when he was young. He had a 56 with Contenial kit and the white walls it was great he loved that car. So the 300 is my 56 Bel-Air but this time im keeping it like he had always wish he had done with the 56. This car is to me the Modern Muscle car like I use to dream about in school I read ever book I could about muscle cars looked at tons of pictuers it was a dream to have a 71 Boss 302.
The Look the lines of the 300 just say muscle car to me.Its also helps that its got luxury interio so you can crusie in style. The sleak lines combined with the boxy shape just speak to me. I can’t explain what I mean but if your pasoinate about this car you know what I mean.
I had wanted to get Black do black on Black wheels chrom every thing. Well when I was looking I keep getting the same answer no black you’ll have to order it. I didn’t have the time to order one casue had to get a car my mother could get in easy plus I know if I looked I could find it. I called and called Nope no black all the black ones came in and went out ASAP. Ok so I start thinking maybe Deep Lava Red. I found one in Millwaukee I call my wife at work and she has called looking for black to nothing a few maybe call backs.So she says you know it looks like black is going to be a popular color Call that dealer tell them we’ll be up there tonight to buy that Deep Lava Red. So I did and now its in the driveway and im glad I didn’t wholed out for black Deep lava is a much richer color to me then black plus you don’t see them everyday.
On a side note I got a call 2 days later from dealer’s in Schumbruge and Millwaukee saying they had a Black one if I wanted it. To Bad boys Black Cherri’s home.

Well Whos Next.
