Vehicle Description
This 1963 Chrysler 300 Convertible Pace Setter is about delivering
rarity, distinction, and true top-down cruiser style. So take some
extra time to realize the fun this rare V8 Mopar offers.
The 300 Series cars from Chrysler carried some of the most
distinctive sheet metal of the era. It's in the details, like how
the creases in the body are highlighted by the trim. In fact, we
just love how the line outlining the grille zooms up the hood and
wraps around the passenger compartment. It's part of a very clean
and complete package that this one represents. The 0 in holding the
second place in the VIN signals this is an official pace car
replica. So this earns the full decal billboard package on the
side. It looks quite nice against the metallic blue paint that was
special to these pace cars. Even the white convertible top
harmonizes nicely. What we love about Mopars is also their rarity.
We could consider the official pace car replicas a popular model,
and yet, there were still less than 1900 produced. To put that into
the perspective of this era, Cadillac produced nearly nine times
more of the significantly more expensive Series 62 convertible in
the same year. So there's a feeling that this will likely be the
only one to show up to car & coffee (and may even be a solo sight
at many Mopar events, too!) So since it's distinct, we like the
cruiser-ready attitude that lets you take it out on the weekends
and share its uniqueness with the world.
Beneath the power folding top is a stylish white interior. It looks
attractive while still giving you the driver-ready style that makes
it easy to share this large drop-top with family and friends This
is a terrific vintage luxury machine that has some impressive
classic details. The courtesy lights greet you when the door opens,
the stock AM radio is still on display, and the center console
compass is still working (so it feels like 1960s sat nav.) Even the
steering wheel is a unique setup where it's not the squared version
you got on the letter-series cars, and instead, an asymmetrical
design with the driver and gauges in mind. And speaking of the
driver, the front bucket seats, sporty round gauges, and
push-button transmission really made you feel like you were driving
distinction.
Chrysler's 383 cubic-inch V8 was their bedrock for the muscle car
generation, and so it has the right torque to keep this 300
convertible cruising with ease. In fact, you know this one was made
for the boulevards with features like power steering, power brakes,
and a TorqueFlite three-speed automatic transmission. There are
even newer touring tires on the upgraded Vision 15-inch wheels.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, maintenance
records, sales literature, and stock wheel covers. This Chrysler's
driver-quality attitude is reflected in the affordable price for
this kind of drop-top classic. So you could certainly
upgrade/update the body, motor, or other details to your liking.
But we especially like the way that something so rare and distinct
is also particularly easy to enjoy without getting too nervous
about the open road. That's why this deal is irresistible. Call
