Re: [MV] No MV Context! Boat info needed

Yes Rob,

A little known division of Chrysler was secretly formed by a young Lee
Iacocca in the 50's. His Chrysler-Craft Division was short lived and
only produced boats in 1957 - what Fred identified as a Packard is
actually the ultra rare 1957 Chrysler-Craft 300 Runabout. The boats were
produced with a distinctive coral and white two tone paint job.
Unfortunately, Mr. Iacocca's division was quashed by senior management
after it was discovered that aluminum sheeting being used for the tail
finn assemblies on the night shift was gumming up the stamping mills
normally used to form steel panels for the cars during the day shift.

This finned rarity needs a thorough restoration!
