C-bodies To The Lake: A caravan from Rockford to Milwaukee, Sept. 7
Inspired by BBTR (now in its fourth edition), this one-day road trip is the first C-body “event” (involving more than just a couple of cars) that I am co-organizing. The choice of Milwaukee was made obvious following @1978 NYB‘s reportage of the Pabst brewery….

The last C-body convertibles are turning 50: Time for birthday parties!
Folks,

1970 Chrysler 300 ‘vert (Hillsboro, OR; 130k, $20k)

300 convertible in Uniontown, OH (just sold, for records)
Hope this is not a repost. I just missed this 300 ragtop for sale between Akron and New Canton in OH. The car sold yesterday, and the seller does not have a photo of the tag. Here are the photos and text in the ad, for records:

1970 Newport convertible on eBay (blue metallic, L-code now 4-barrel/dual exhaust)
CE27LOC247018 is listed on eBay and is for sale in Quebec. Not the car for me, but I like that the seller shows what’s under the seat pad. Very few options, based on the tantalizing outline of the fender tag in the last photo.
Edit: I have posted the tag in the Last Convertibles thread / registry.
