Mark:



For almost any Ditzler color chip information from 1923 to present for
almost every make of car, go see:

www.autocolorlibrary.com



This is a fantastic resource for us all.  Pass it on.



The Ditzler code number for a 1963 Chrysler, "Burgundy Red POLY" is 71280.
All you have to do is find an auto paint supplier that can use this number
to mix the original paint for you.  If you are concerned that your dash
has faded then obviously you should take something in to have it matched
to the faded color sample.  If you will discuss with the mixer what you
want, he can mix it with the appropriate glossing agent to give you the
desired look.





For the exterior color chips for your '63 Chrysler see:

http://autocolorlibrary.com/cgi-bin/search/searchpic.pl?1963-chrysler-pg01

For the interior Ditzler color code numbers (not the actual color chip)
for your '63 Chrysler see:

http://autocolorlibrary.com/cgi-bin/search/searchpic.pl?1963-chrysler-pg02
.jpg



The Ditzler number for Burgundy Red Poly (71280) is referenced for usage
on 1963 Chrysler Radio Grille, Instrument Panel Center and Left and Right
Pushbutton cover plates.



Good Luck,



John Mc Adams

Subject: [Chrysler300] '63 Chrysler 300 Red Dash Cluster Paint Needed





Hi,



I have a '63 Chrysler 300 with a 

red dash cluster.



I think the paint is a semi-metallic

called Burgundy Red Poly.

I got this information from another

paint chip sheet (Detrex), but they

didn't have the color chip.



Does anyone have the interior

paint chip for Burgundy Red. Poly?

I know that some paint supply shops

can match the color off my piece, but

what if the color on the piece is faded

or possibly darker?



Perhaps the interior paint chip would

be a better sample for the real color?



300ly,

Mark Lindahl

The 58,60,and 61 300s certainly appear to be the same cars.  I noticed
that in the Jan. Auction results picture there is a license plate on the
front bumper of the 60.  No view of the front in the upcoming auction so
no help.  Ocw reported them sold at 65K for the 58, 65K for the 60, and
64K for the 61.  The RM Results show  71.5K, 71.5K, and 70.4K
respectively.  That would be the OCW price with 10% premium.

Subject: Bracket from 300 G

Hi All,

Need the help of the Club to aid in the identification of a
bracket that I removed in engine compartment 4 years ago.
Starting to put the G together now.  It was -15* here in
northern Minnesota 2 weeks ago. Last weekend it was +60*
and the snow has melted like crazy.  It's 50* today, and
Getting the itch to work on the car.  Been a long, cold winter.

Bracket from:

300 G coupe,  engine compartment, (in same box as battery tray.)

part number on bracket :  NM - 40 -1

Part is about  8 inches long,   1 inch wide.

one end has  3/8 "  hole   ( has about a 20* bend )

other end has    3/8 "  by  1 inch  hole (slot)( has about 15* bend)

I thought it was a battery tray support bracket, but no holes line up.

Question for the group is:   What is it and where does it go.

Thanking you in advance for your help,

Lauren R Lampi
300G coupe
Grand Rapids, Minnesota
