Re: {Chrysler 300} 300G 4-Speed Convertible up for auction

I've wondered where this G went, since watching it cross the Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale auction block in January 2002. This was before I owned my F and joined our 300 Club. My eyes opened wide when I saw it hammer for $192k, and assumed that strong price was because it was a stickshift, and possibly its unusual color..

Then, just a few cars later, a black G TorqueFlite convertible hammered for $196k. I later discovered that Jeff Carter had restored this black ragtop.

Maybe it's a 3-speed G convertible? Consignor saw a stick and assumed a 4-speed? Not impossible that someone put a P-A-M tranny in a G after seeing/hearing about the 4-speed F-Special cars of the previous year, but unlikely, and almost positive it wasn't done by Chrysler at the factory.

I saw this on my news feed up for auction:

https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/hendricks-collection/

There is a 300-F convertible "with its factory four-speed manual transmission, a highly uncommon feature, and its unique Pinehurst Green color. Formerly part of the renowned Pat McGroder muscle car collection, this Chrysler is believed to be one of fewer than four ever built. With an estimated value ranging from $175,000 to $225,000"

Nothing was noted as to its authenticity. Discuss!
