RE: {Chrysler 300} Perry Mason



 

  • In Bachelor in Paradise, in one scene there is a black 300F in the background entering the freeway

 

  • There is a movie entitled Private Property, a Low Budget film made in 1960 starring Warren Oates. In the movie the husband drives a gleaming 1959 Chrysler 300E convertible. The movie is in black and white, so I can only say that the car is a light color. Watch it for the car, not the plot or the dialogue.

 

  • There is Cry Terror, a lesser-known film noir starring James Mason, Rod Steiger and Inger Stevens, made in 1957. It is uncanny, there are no other brands of cars that appear in this movie except way in the background. The bad guy escapes in a 1957 Chrysler Imperial two-door coupe, the henchman (Neville Brand) drives a 1957 two-tone Dodge station wagon, the heroine drives from the ransom money drop site to the hideout in a shiny white 1957 New Yorker convertible, the next-door neighbor has a 1957 Desoto, and, during the getaway, the Chrysler was followed by a 1957 Desoto taxi. Most peculiar of all was that all of above the cars had single headlight sets, excepting the black 1957 Plymouth cop car that had the more common dual headlight set. But no 300’s.

For those who look for Chrysler products in the old movies, a red 300G convertible can be seen in the 1961 movie “Bachelor in Paradise” with Bob Hope and Lana Turner.

I recall that the old Perry Mason Show had primarily FoMoCo products: Paul Drake in a “Square Bird” convertible and Perry and Della (or a high roller suspect) in a Mark III, IV, or V…

As per this link the car used in the movie, The World, the Flesh and the Devil was a 1958 Chrysler 300D.  Based on this link that seems to be verified.  IMCDb.org: 1958 Chrysler 300 D Convertible [LC3-S 595] in "The World, the Flesh and the Devil, 1959"

I saw that episode as well.  Wasn't there also a sci fi show or movie that had a 57 or 58 in a dealer showroom that got driven out through the glass?

This car should be easy to find….how many D’s came with a metal box below the temp control with a handgun inside. Was that a Chrysler option for 1958?

The other day I watched an episode of Perry Mason that was originally filmed on 11-8-58.  The name of the episode was: "The Case of the Married Moonlighters".  About 52  minutes into the show a 300D convertible made a brief appearance. The first scene showed the front of the car which one could see the bumper, grille, hood and windshield. The car had both outside mirrors. The next scene was Lt. Tragg getting in and sitting behind the steering wheel. Tragg had his hand under the dash looking for a lever that would open a metal box located just below the temp control lever. He was able to open the box and inside was a handgun.

The car was equipped with a (7) button radio, but not power windows. I can only imagine the thrill the owner had to see their car make it into a national tv show, or, did a dealer provide this beauty?

 

Where is this car?
