Forgive me a little sentimentality where old Chryslers are concerned. My first car was a 1931 Chrysler purchased for $75. It had a few peculiarities: for example the front axle would jam the steering when in tight cornering manoeuvres over a bumpy surface. The battery fell onto a streetcar track in front of an approaching Toronto streetcar. The fuel tank fell off (I swear this is true) as I pulled into a gas station. The wiring caught fire at the entrance to a farm (I swear this is true, too) where the farmer had an abundance of water handy. The seatback collapsed but I propped it up with a broken canoe paddle. Late one night, while traveling with a pretty young woman with whom I'd never been intimate, it forced the car into a ditch, resulting in the two of us skinny-dipping the next morning in order to refresh ourselves. So I can't resist promoting the 1928 Chrysler Model 72 Le Mans Race Car as the first Heritage Collection die cast model commissioned by the Walter P. Chrysler Museum. The 1:18 scale pre-war vintage model is a faithful replica of the vehicle in the Museum collection, celebrating the Stoffel-Rossignol racer that placed third overall at the 1928 Le Mans. Featuring a steerable wheel and opening hood, trunk and doors, the model is presented on a display base and packed in a keepsake Museum box. Available exclusively through the Walter P. Chrysler Museum Store, the 1928 Chrysler Model 72 Le Mans Race Car can be puchased for a mere $49.95. Diane Windeyer, where are you today? I'll buy one for each of us although, considering our advanced years, skinny dipping is not an option.
