'64 300 K Convert.

[cotejohnr@xxxx]

Hi all ,
Looking for a new challenge or parts for your restoration???

A ânewâ, unaccounted for, 300 K CONVERTIBLE found in a shed!! The VIN is
8443-198967 and not on the â300K registryâ published in Sept. 2002 
âNews-fliteâ. It appears to be all there. The radiator is out and the grill is in the 
back seat so it wouldnât get damaged. It was driven into the shed (maybe 10 
years ago?) and never moved again. I donât know milage. Although ithad a roof 
over its head, the shed was open and the front and rear have had exposure to 
the weather. Some rust coming through on the front fenders and right front 
fender dented above headlights. Rear pot metal between the tail lights is very 
badly pitted. Could not get into trunk, nor could I inspect the floors but under 
hood is intact engine; single 4 barrel. Color is black with a red interior.
Would make an good parts car or VERY ambitious restoration. Will need tires 
pumped and winched out of shed onto trailer. Owner has title.

I found it when I sold my unmolested, original â33 Plymouth (aka â300 P â ) 
to the man that owns the âKâ.

The car is located about 65 miles south of Harrisburg, PA just over the 
border in Maryland. The man is VERY nice, does woodwork restoration on old historic 
buildings and is a retired MD state trooper! 

I am only alerting everyone to its existence and that he wants to sell the 
car. I think he would like $1000 which I think is a fair price for condition 
with nothing missing. (Old Cars Price Guide puts a 300K Convert parts car at 
$1480 and that would be truly a parts car with several pieces missing.) Youmay 
contact him at his e-mail address ( fairmill@xxxx) if interested and take 
it from there. His name is Richard Blacksten.

He also has a â62 Chrysler 4 door hardtop, VIN 8123199786 about same 
condition that I didnât see that he would like to sell as well.

Good luck,

P.S. Got that VIN Gloria and Gil?
