We have the pleasure of presenting this 1961 Chrysler 300 G, one of the luxury, high-performance, so-called ‘Letter Series’ Chryslers. It had a limited run of only 1,324 cars. The G has been fitted with 7.0 litre ‘Wedge’ V8 with twin 4-Barrel carburettors and a special Cross-Ram inlet manifold. The 375 Hp it produced was really quite impressive for 1961.
A Dutch Jeep/Chrysler dealer imported this particular car in 1988, where it was displayed in the showroom for the next 18 years. The last owner, a German gent, bought the car in 2010. Once it had arrived in Germany it was given a full Bare-Metal restoration and engine rebuild. Photos show that even before the restoration the bodywork was in great condition. This German restoration is of the utmost quality. A complete record of all works , including 100’s of photos, has been kept.
It was crowned ‘Best Restored Car’ in 2012 at the Rallye Historique Schloss Bensberg and ‘Star of Classic Gala’ at the 2017 Classic Gala Schwetzingen. It has a factory-fitted “Push-Button’ automatic, power brake/ steering, leather interior trim, front Swivel Seats. Golden radio with electric aerial, rear windscreen heating and two side-mirrors. This could actually be a prize-winning rare 300G!

Gorgeous and the bluesy rock guitar fits perfectly.

Even Rolls-Royce couldn’t do canted quads like Virgil Exner.

A 57, chevy couldn't touch this car. 395HP that's if you got the hemi option.

[@ijsmale]

There was no Hemi option for the 1961 Chrysler 300-G. The engine was a 413 raised block B series wedge engine which came out in 1959 after the original 392 Hemi was discontinued. The B Engines were lighter and more powerful than the original Hemi. The standard horsepower for this engine was 375.

I owned one of these in the late sixties. A big glorious boat. The swing out front seats and Art Deco dash were pretty neat as was the cross ram manifold on the 413. I downsized to a Porsche 356.
