Beautiful shot of a wonderful car. Starting with Chryslers 413 cid wedge engine and either Cross Ram Long Tube Induction delivering 375 HP or Short Tube Cross Ram Induction delivering 400 HP. Standard equipment was the Chrysler "Type Writer" three speed push button automatic transmission. Some, however were offered with floor mounted three manual transmission.


yep, those were the days when everyone wanted 4 on the floor, but were quickly finding out that Chrysler's Torqueflight automatic, which first became available in '57, was beating them at the track and on the street. Thanks!

I think I would remember such a beauty, if I had ever saw one.


thanks dusty, as you see the car here I believe only 334 convertible 1961 300G's were produced, so the likelihood of seeing one now, or even then, was probably pretty rare.

but gas was no issue back then! I can remember the often gas wars when gas could be bought for 19.9 a gallon! A buck got you 5 gallons. Today, a buck will buy you enough to drive out of the damn gas station!
