RE: [Chrysler300] Build Information 300 K

Thanks. My first car was a 1964 300 sport coupe with the oval wheel and people were always curious about it even though it was only a 12 year old car at the time. People always think it would be weird to drive with it but you really don’t notice any difference from a round wheel when turning.

I was hanging onto this wheel in case I ever got a 300K but I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

Yes. You can repair the ovals. IMHO this wheel is the one that separates the car from the usual boring

Here are pictures of the wheel. A few more cracks than I remember but very useable. I don’t think anyone is recasting the oval wheels.

I have a nice black oval wheel. It has some small cracks. I’ll have to take some pictures and figure out a price. Note that it’s actually a really dark charcoal color and not really plain black. No horn ring but there is one on ebay right now.

This one is an oval steering wheel. My previous New Yorker had a tilt wheel set up and it was a round steering wheel.

Allan:

Your first question I do not have an answer to. Regarding the steering wheel, this model year came with either fixed column or tilt column. Each column used a different wheel. Is your column fixed or tilt?

I was wondering if anyone could offer some guidance as to how to identify how many '64 K's were built with the options similar to mine?

Also, I am looking for a steering wheel as mine is broken top and bottom at the base and too warped to repair properly.. Black preferred.

Thanks!
