Very Nice. Many years ago, a neighbor had one of those 300-series Chryslers with the "spare tire" stamped into the trunklid, and another with those retro stand-alone headlamps. She also had the most extensive collection of cuckoo clocks I've ever seen. It got quite loud when the top of the hour struck! Thinking back, perhaps her husband was Doc Brown!

I was thinking I should probably take a day trip to the Walter P Chrysler museum soon, before they shut the place down.

The Chrysler Historical Foundation, which includes the museum property, is a separate entity from Chrysler corporate.  Their research facilities, museum, store, etc. should continue to exist well into the future without interruption.

Well, it's going belly-up the end of this year. I'll try to get there before then...  :(
