1957 Chrysler 300C 2 door hardtop –
Just out of a 30 year indoor storage is this beautiful solid rust free Southern California car. It has been refreshed cosmetically and mechanically as needed and is a striking example of the 1957 Chrysler 300C with only 230 left on the road today.
This 300C has stunning new paint in Gaugin Red with clear coat over a straight accident free and rust free Southern California body. The stainless trim has been polished and both bumpers chrome replated. The interior has been completely restored as needed with new tan leather and vinyl seats, panels, carpet, and headliner.
This well optioned Chrysler 300C has the original and correct 392 cubic inch V8, correct dual quad carburetors, push button Torque Flight automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power seat, Electro Touch Tuner signal seeking radio, quad headlights and tinted glass.
Mechanically, this 300C is in very good condition. It runs strong without any smoke or blow-by and the transmission shifts smoothly. All systems have been serviced and rebuilt as necessary to insure safe dependable driving. These components have been rebuilt: complete brake system, new shocks, suspension bushings and ball joints, exhaust system, dual quad carburetors, fuel pump, water pump, starter, generator, belts, and hoses. It has all new rubber door seals, etc. throughout. It also has a brand new set of correct B.F. Goodrich 2 ¼” whitewall tires.
This Chrysler 300C is a beautiful car that is ready to enjoy. It has had a tremendous amount of work completed to refresh and renew as necessary after a long term indoor storage. It has a couple of last items that will need attention, the radio, heater and a spotty window switch, but overall is an amazing example of an iconic car from the 1950’s. It is ready to be enjoyed all over again as it was nearly 60 years ago when it was brand new!
