This 1961 Chrysler 300G Convertible was offered for sale at the 2007 Sports and Classic Car Auction presented by The Worldwide Group, in Hilton Head Island, SC where it was estimated to sell for $150,000 - $175,000. It is powered by a 413 cubic-inch engine capable of producing 375 horsepower. There is a three-speed automatic gearbox and four-wheel power drum brakes. The engine and transmission are both numbers matching and both operate flawlessly. The convertible top is new and it too operates exceptionally well. It was ordered from the factory with the Golden Touch radio, remote outside mirror, electric seats, power steering, power windows, power brakes, rear defogger delete, and many others. The Rear defogger delete only occurred on the convertibles.
It has been recently treated to a no-expense-spared restoration and finished in the original black color. The 'Letter Cars' are highly sought after by collectors, and the excellent condition of this car and superior pedigree had bidding surpass the estimated low-value, and reaching $159,500 including buyer's premium.
The 300G represented the pinnacle of luxury, style, and performance for Chrysler in 1961. It was the second and last year for the cross-ram induction setup to be included as standard equipment. The cross-ram setup maximized horsepower and torque resulting in quick acceleration. It had a zero-to-sixty time of just seven seconds which was an incredible feat considering the weight and size of the vehicle.
There were 337 examples of the 330G convertible constructed with around 120 or so still in existence in modern times. Fewer than ten percent of those were ordered in factory executive black.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2007
