Location: The not-so-great, dirty-white North ( Michigan)		LOVE the galvanized pipe fitting for the engine!
Just what you would expect of a Nimrod that butchered the car with his own body.
Note the only engine shot is partial.
Guy is WAY too proud of his custom "body".

Location: Baltimore, Maryland		This was not a 300C originally, the body vin is wrong. It would start with '3N57'. Click on the little VIN picture and you get complete shots of the engine compartment. That's some of the most interesting heater hose routing that I've ever seen.

To each his own, better this than crushed into a cube of scrap steel.....

Yep, CE57 is the engine number from a '57 Imperial; the body tag was probably made off the engine number, some states register special construction vehicles by the engine number.

Location: The Bat Cave, Fairborn, OH		I believe the only thing this bozo used off the 57 Chrysler 300C is the engine.

Location: Baltimore, Maryland		No, the undercarriage looks very familiar, the frame at one time was underneath some form or other of 57 chrysler product.
