Re: [Chrysler300] 1964 Chrysler 300 Kwestions

Rich,
 
    My 300K has a '63 roof assembly on it. It's been  about 20 years (ugh, 
really) since I got the car and put it back together and  robbed the roof 
from a '63 parts car.  I guess the quarter glass is the  same since I never 
changed it out and everything fits.
 
    The one difference I noticied immediately is that  the '64 had a cable 
with an eyelet running on each side from the siderail about  above the front 
door, through the top material and attached somewhere in the  rear 
mechanism with a tension spring. The was to keep the top tightand fitting  snugly as 
it came down and wrapped over the side of the roof. The '63 assy  doensn't 
have this provision and the top seems to have shrunk a little perhaps  
because of it. Maybe someone can email a photo if my description is  lacking. 
 
     Cureous about the color on your recent  acquisition, was it roman red? 
 What about the engine compartment? Was the  car front ended at some point 
and had the nose replaced and someone didn't  bother to paint the inner 
fenders?  Also, is it a 413? Air cleaner with  single snorkel seems Newport/New 
Yorker variety... K should have unsilenced  w/out snorkel no?
