Expert Posts: 1886 | If it was a color matched car it would get interesting. I like how they call it a rare color, when it's a repaint haha | ||

Expert Posts: 2003 Location: Branson, MO | I really don't mind the color as it's appealing to me and different. From what I can tell, whoever did the restoration did a very decent job in my opinion. My preference is a 300F or a 300H in that order though. | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 628 Location: Lubbock, TX | Viper Guy - 2020-05-02 8:14 PM https://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/pts/d/seattle-chrysler-300f/71... 300F for $6999 with cross ram. Might be a candidate to finish this turquoise one off right and then resell it or part it out. Bummer is that F and G rams are different. F rams have that pin for the throttle return spring and the G rams have brackets off the carb base for the return spring. Interesting that this car still has the cross-ram brake booster though. For driveability, the 4bbl makes more sense, almost did our's with a NY intake, but finally opted for the rams. ~Peter | ||

Veteran Posts: 143 Location: Malmberget, Sweden | This car was sold from WoC museum and then the cross rams were included in the deal. | ||

Elite Veteran Posts: 655 Location: Finland | I think if I would start to chop off big slices off the value of my car for every "wrong" detail I would surely have to pay quite a sum to get it off my property.... lol | ||

Expert Posts: 3967 Location: DFW, TX | In my opinion, the 300s were always held back by the relatively boring color combinations. I mean, they look great, but "white with a beige interior" is a hallmark of 2020 cars, not '50s and '60s cars. This car is a real letter car with a very stylish color combination, so IMO it is improved. But that's just an opinion. I agree it needs its cross ram intake back, but I could be happy cruising it with the hood shut and cold A/C blowing. Nice ride. Edited by 57burb 2020-05-04 6:11 PM | ||

Regular Posts: 66 Location: Ferndale, WA 98248 | Here's my 10 year project in the making, my Tahitian Turquoise 61 Newport / 300 G tribute car. I left the Newport trim on it because (1) I like it (2) for people who know these cars it immediately identifies it is not real 300G, and (3) I didn't want to deal with all the body work with the holes if we took it off. It just recently got the entire drivetrain from a 71 New Yorker: 440, 727 with part throttle kickdown, driveline with 2 u-joints, and its 8 3/4 rear without tapered bearings. The 440 really likes the cross rams! I have the complete interior from a 300G (swivel seats, door panels, full console with tach), but it all needs to be redone. Its next stop will be the upholstery shop.

Extreme Veteran Posts: 363 | I like that Newport 300 Mr Bob, very cool. What color are you going on the 300 interior? Owen | ||
Mr. Bob |

Regular Posts: 66 Location: Ferndale, WA 98248 | I'll do the interior in the standard tan and black. The seats may get the 300F pattern like the car that started this thread. I suspect the 300G waffle pattern will cost more than my budget. | ||
