RE: [Chrysler300] Specs for a 300G

["Richard Osborne" <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe there is something to the early production for the G? My coupe was built in August. When I bought it, it was mostly original and the latches were not painted. The convertible was built in November and they are painted. 

Off to Mexico, lucky me.

John & all,
 
I don't doubt that the original cars mentioned had painted latches and came
that way from the factory.  Having said that, I have an early production
300G convertible here that is in need of a restoration. This car seems to be
very original and is an early production G, with a scheduled build date of
9- 30- 60.  The latches in the doors are definitely NOT painted.  The only
reason I can see that these are not painted are that they either came from
the factory that way, or someone replaced both latches which seems unlikely
to me.  Couldn't it be that painting the latches was a just a production
change?  I know this won't explain why the 300F cited had painted latches,
but I'm not convinced the early 300Gs had painted latches.  Are there any
other early G owners out there that have unpainted latches and have a fair
certainty that they never were?
