Vehicle Description
1969 Chrysler 300 Coupe
The Chrysler 300 (Chrysler 300 Non-Letter Series) was a full-size
automobile produced by Chrysler from 1962 until 1971. It was the
replacement for the 1961 Chrysler Windsor, which itself filled the
place in Chrysler's line previously occupied by the Saratoga just
the year before that (1960). At the time, it was considered a
luxurious "muscle car", with all the performance of the Dodge and
Plymouth products of the time, but with the luxury features
expected of the Chrysler name.
This highly optioned Chrysler 300 was cosmetically restored
approximately 4 years ago, where it was stripped down to bare
metal, any metal work done, then primed and painted. At this time
the trim was polished, the bumpers re-chromed and a new vinyl roof
was installed. Several modern, mostly bolt on upgrades were made
and the car was taken on a 2,000 mile trip in August of 2018.
Exterior
Stripped repaired and repainted, this car is now arrow straight
with beautiful paint, chrome, brite work and badging bringing this
car to showroom condition. US Mags Rambler wheels adorn all four
corners and are wrapped by Nitto NT 555 G2 Tires. Fender mounted
turn signals, cornering lamps, as well as hidden working headlamps,
all straight and true.
Interior
Power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, 6
way power seats, power antenna, climate control, a headlight
sentinel, and an AM/FM 8 track with rear seat speakers are among
the options that came with this luxury muscle car. White bucket
seats, joined together by a flip down buddy seat, perfect
headrests, as well as a rear white bench, are all in excellent
condition. White leather door panels, and a white headliner, are
broken up by a jet black dash with all original gauges and knobs,
fronted by a leather wrapped Tuff steering wheel. New carpet, and a
new windshield were recently installed
Drivetrain
A 440ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor atop, and bolted to a heavy
duty automatic transmission, with a deep sump oil pan, reside under
the massive hood. The engine bay is very clean with no corrosion or
rust. A rebuilt air compressor ensures that you will have frigid
air even on the hottest of days. An MSD ignition and coil are
attached, providing a very quick start.Spent gasses exit via a new
2.5" dual exhaust system
Undercarriage
New leaf springs, front hangers, bushings and a FirmFeel sway bar
compliment the Bilstein shocks to finish off a smooth ride for the
rear. For the front all new Firmfeel Stage 2 steering box, tubular
upper control arms 1.12 torsion bars, greasable lower pivot pins,
boxed lower control arms, tie rod ends and QA1 adjusters with new
sway bar bushings and Bilstein shocks provide the modern day
handlingand ride comfort. As this car was havily undercoated from
the factory, the seat pans, body mounts and frame are all jet black
with no rust.
This restored and upgraded lion was meant to be driven and enjoyed.
Everything performed on this car was for its use, to take yourself
back to a time when the superhighway was just one way to get
somewhere. Chrysler luxury and power combine to make this mile long
muscle cruiser a reliable and comfortable drive, interstate or blue
highway. Upon its arrival at Classic Auto Mall it definitely turned
