Re:Fw: [Chrysler300] showroom album

["Richard Osborne" <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I too apologize for the delay in responding. I bought a '61 Color and Trim selector earlier this year and was quite disappointed to find almost no mention of the 300 G. I questioned my dad, who was one of the top sales people in 1961, about this. He said he couldn't remember. His only comment was that "Highlander Plaid isn't in here". (I know, this wasn't an option on the G).

Oh well.

Best regards,

Richard Osborne

>  my album lists the 300 but has no upholstery samples.am i missing these?
my  hard cover upholstery book doesnt even list the 300. Can anybody tell me
if  my album and upholstery book are missing these?
 
                This  is a belated answer to Ron Wade about mention of the 
300 in Dealer's Albums.  My 1960 Chrysler Dealer's Album (bought finally on eBay 
a  few years ago at great expense after fifteen years of fruitless searching) 
 does not have a 300F upholstery sample (which would be tan in color). The  
paint samples do include those used on 300F's (like Formal Black or  Terra 
Cotta), as these colors were available on other Chrysler models, but there  is no 
mention of 300F colors per se.
 
                On  the other hand, the 300F is mentioned in the Album under 
"Body Styles" (left  side booklet when folded out), and the relevant codes are 
given; the 300F is  also mentioned regarding available accessories. 
Curiously, no mention is  given of the 300 or its 375bhp engine in the mechanical 
specifications. All in  all, the 300F is barely evident in the DA. Guess they 
expected folks to  refer to the unique 300 brochures for info.
