Hi to all in 300sville & Gil!! Yes, that seems to be right Gil. Around '60 and '61 Chrysler would 'fibb' about their weight to save on shipping. 4500 lbs. is more like it. It wasn't until about '63 or '64 that their weights were stated correctly (is what I understand). Sincerely & 300ly, Brandt H. J. w/ a G. lettercars@xxxxxxx wrote: Hi All: This is what Chrysler says about the 300F coupe weights in the AMA specifications. They have nothing to say about the convertible, nor either 300G model. Curb weight: 4585 lbs. Shipping weight: 4435 lbs. (estimated) The specs say the shipping wgt. is what is reported to the states for licensing purposes, so I asume it is the "dry" wgt, and the curb wgt. includes all the fluids plus a few gallons of gas. For your additional info, you would add the following accessory weights: Air Conditioner and Heater: 112# Heater only: 12# Radio: 8# Power Antenna: 5# Power Seat: 50# Rear Window Defogger: 7# Remote Control Mirror: 3# Rear Seat Speaker: 2# Hope this is of some interest. 300ly, Gil Cunningham Tally, FL In a message dated 4/17/2008 8:54:37 PM Eastern Daylight Time, rpjasin@xxxxxxxxxxx writes: Jeff, The Crestline 70 Years of Chrysler book shows the 300G coupe as weighing 4,260 lbs, and the convert at 4,315 lbs. so, 4,200 lbs is about right.

I'm curious since rerading about Billy Korbels G in Hemmings and the shipping weight being listed as 4200 pounds. I find that hard to believe. I had my 300 Hurst weighed one time and it was over 5000 pounds with a full tank of gas. Just curious.
