1962 CHRYSLER 300 FOUR DOOR HARD TOP. 383 V-8 WITH A PUSH BUTTON 727 AUTOMATIC. VERY CLEAN CALIFORNIA CAR.

FRONT SEAT REDONE IN CORRECT LOOKING HIGH END VINYL. GOOD BODY AND PAINT. PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY A LONG TIME EMPLOYEE OF THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. HE HAD THEM REPAINT IT BEFORE HE RETIRED. HE ALSO HAD THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION REBUILT. GARAGE KEPT AND ALWAYS LOCAL, THIS CAR RUNS WELL AND SHOWS NICELY. ORIGINAL GLASS, DOOR PANELS, ARMRESTS, BASKET WEAVE HEADLINER AND VISORS, PERFECT DASH BOARD, INSTRUMENTS, FLOORS, LEATHER REAR SEAT AND AM RADIO. THE PREVIOUS OWNER PUT THE SLOT MAGS AND HOOSIER TIRES ON THE 300. WE REPLACED THE TAIL LIGHT AND FRONT MARKER LENSES WITH THOSE $750. ONES LISTED CURRENTLY ON EBAY. WE REPLACED THE PACKAGE TRAY AND KICK PANELS TOO (SPEAKER HOLES). THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL CALIFORNIA CAR THAT HAS REMAINED IN SANTA MARIA, CA SINCE IT WAS NEW. IT RUNS WELL AND GOES TO SHOWS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WITH EASE AND COMFORT. APPARENTLY FOUR DOOR HARDTOP VERSIONS ARE VERY RARE. THIS CAR ATTRACTED ATTENTION AT WOODLEY PARK DURING THE LARGEST MOPAR SHOW WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI CPW SPRING FLING. WHEN WE DROVE INTO THE SHOW (PICTURED IN PHOTO NEXT TO 1969 DODGE CHARGER RT AT SHOW) THERE WAS A 1962 CHRYSLER 300 H CONVERTIBLE ACROSS FROM US AND PEOPLE WERE AMAZED BY OUR FOUR DOOR. MANY SAID THEY HAD SEEN LETTER CARS BUT NEVER A 4 DOOR HARDTOP. THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR OF THE NON-LETTER 300 SERIES AND THIS VEHICLE IS A WELL-MAINTAINED EXAMPLE THAT IS MOSTLY ORIGINAL IN CONDITION. WE HAVE TOO MANY CARS!
