Re: {Chrysler 300} 1962 Torqueflight Finish



Hi Matt, I believe that the 727’s left the factory unpainted. I cleaned the one that came with my spare 413 and don’t removing any paint. The one in my Sport looks like bare aluminum.

Back in the real old days I remember transmission shops such as AAMCO would paint transmission cases different colors to designate type. I remember this because I grenaded my grandmother's FMX in her Mercury. When it got changed out it was dark blue. Must be a habit they couldn't shake.

Had my transmission rebuilt.
It came back in gun metal grey.
(See below)
Almost as if it were a WWII ship item!
I wire-wheeled some of the paint off.

Did these aluminum Torqueflights leave the factory au natural?
Or were they sprayed with an aluminum paint finish?

Thanks
Matt Allyn
