SV: [Chrysler300] Paxton 50s performance advert including a C-300

Glad the mail came through. What I am referring to was basically an advert for superchargers and no additional info, proof or pictures. The result of supercharging the C-300 was however significant, and I believe it has been discussed before here.

Hello Narve;

I don't remember seeing a C300 with super chargers.

That would be interesting.

I remember Granitelli had a 300F with dual super chargers.

Granitelli owned Paxton at the time.

Your post came through the server fine.

Bob

Anyone remember this advert from Paxton (McCullogh) Industries in around 1956, showing performance gains (0-60 timeslots etc) for various cars having had a Paxton supercharger added.. The icing of the cake was a C-300 with twin Paxtons at the bottom of the list. If I remember correctly, this was advertised doing 0-60 in less than 7 seconds. Do anyone have a copy/scan of this advert that I can get a digital copy of? Trying to source it on the internet gives nothing, but I believe it has been published in the 300 fraternity before.

Drove my C-300 today and remembered a nice story
(but am really struggling to get Yahoogroups to accept my e-mails)
