1960 Chrysler 300f 413ci on 2040-cars

Year:1960 Mileage:23796
Location:

San Jose, California, United States

San Jose, California, United States

For Sale: 1960 Chrysler 300F Coupe 
VIN: 8403126310 

Up for sale is an original 1960 California Black Plate Chrysler 300F.  The car was stored in an open field for the past 6 years.  It was covered, but developed some rust along the way.  It is virtually complete, with all trim parts, engine, transmission, and rear end all intact. There won’t be a laundry list of parts to chase with this car! The only parts that are known to be missing are the radiator cap and the driveshaft. We consider this vehicle as a deteriorated restoration project. 

The VIN indicates the car was built in January, 1960. The date code on the block shows that the motor was made on January 22nd, 1960. The VIN also indicates that the original color is white and presumed to be original paint.
 
This car was an unknown vehicle to the Chrysler 300 Club International until they were recently contacted.  The VIN and Trim Plate have been submitted to the club for a new “Birthing”.  I expect to hear back from the association shortly, confirming the validity of the car. According to the Chrysler 300 Club website, there were 964 Coupes produced in 1960 and only 270 known survivors to date. This car makes #271! This is a clear CA title (non-op), however, it was last registered for street use in 1974. This car does not run. Mileage as shown on the odometer reads 23,796 miles.
 
The engine is the coveted 413 Wedge with the Cross Ram intakes and dual four barrel carburetors. All of the Cross Ram linkage is in place. 
 
If you are looking for a Virgil Exner fin car to restore, this may be one of the last available cars to buy.
The car is definitely restorable, with normal California rust, and a few areas’ that should not have rust (C-Pillar) that was due to the last owner not properly caring for the car. My son and I were determined to restore this vehicle, but due to a relocation of our warehouse business we are forced to sell.
 
The reserve is low for a car of this caliber, and they sell for well into the 5 figures when restored. We can accommodate virtually any type of carrier or transportation needs. We even have a dock high loading dock to facilitate  a container for overseas transport. Please note buyer assumes all costs for transportation, however, we will (within reason) assist with the loading of the vehicle, if necessary. The car is located less than 50 miles from either the San Francisco or Oakland ports for overseas freight.
 
Unfortunately, I do not have a lot of history on the car, but if you have specific questions regarding condition, etc. please feel free to contact us. Serious parties interested in seeing this car in person may do so by scheduling an appointment. This vehicle is being sold as-is, where-is. 
 
We have additional photos (about 100 total) that will be provided upon request. 
 
Good Luck to all Bidders! Here is your chance to own a rare piece of automobile history.

Fiat-Chrysler shows its SEMA lineup

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles already previewed its 2014 SEMA show lineup with some slick renders. Now, the automaker has finally showed us the actual cars, and among the group there are definitely some that stand out more than others.
Dodge is really showing off its muscle at this year's show with four concepts that all pump up the power of the brand's models. Perhaps most interesting among them is the Challenger T/A Concept (pictured above) in striking Sublime Green and matte black. It's meant to resemble the classic Trans Am racer from the '70s. Under the hood is a 6.4-liter V8, and to fit the vintage style there's a pistol-grip gearshift inside.
The Charger R/T also gets some attention with the Mopar concept that shows off what FCA's aftermarket performance arm can do. Mods include an updated body kit, cold-air intake for the 5.7-liter V8 and a coil-over suspension kit. Beyond that, the Dart R/T Concept looks a lot meaner with a black hood with duct work that leads straight to the air intake. The rest of the compact sedan is dolled up in O-So-Orange paint and is fitted with upgrades to improve handling like a coil-over suspension and big brake kit from the Mopar catalog.

Chrysler shows creative side with employee art exhibit

Wed, 27 Nov 2013

The United Auto Workers and Chrysler recently sponsored 92 works of art created by 50 of the automaker's unionized and salaried employees for the 2013-14 Artists at Work Exhibition, the ninth such show, which recognizes the creative process required to make art and manufacture vehicles. Chrysler says the event is "the country's only juried art show sponsored by a major corporation and a labor union." Unfortunately, the exhibit is not open to the public, but we have images to share of the winning pieces as well as other interesting exhibits in the gallery above.
"Art and manufacturing have more in common than you might think," says Keith Mickens, Chrysler-UAW National Training Center co-director from the UAW. "The creative process involved in producing a memorable image on a canvas can be used to help build quality vehicles on an assembly line."
A diverse range of art forms are showcased, from metal sculptures to ceramics to photography to paintings and more. Four Detroit-area professional artists narrowed down over 600 submissions to the 92 works of art that were shown at the exhibit, then awarded "Best of Show" prizes to three employees for their work (the first three images in our gallery) and selected 11 employees for honorable mentions. The overall winner is the sculpture above by Joseph Aiuto, titled "Childhood Anxiety."
