Re: [Chrysler300] 300D Interior Panels -

Josh and All:
Something told me to have a look at the 300D sales brochure.  If one  looks 
at the picture of the instrument panel, one will also see a happy little  
screw dutifully helping to hold the front corner of the door trim panel  
secure.  
300ly,

Greetings,

That is 100% factory.  The  300D Daytona car was built for racing and never 
went to a dealer, so it wasn't  a dealer's work.

The Bonneville race car was built on the same  day as the Daytona race car 
(Valentines Day...Feb 14th, 1958).  Both cars  were sold internally by 
Chrysler Manufacturing to another arm of Chrysler  (Either Public Relations or 
Engineering... most likely PR), then one car was  sold to the driver (Daytona) 
and one car was given to it's  driver(Bonneville).  Both bypassed the 
dealers completely.

At the  time of your photo both cars were low-mile unrestored.  Both cars 
matched  identically.  I think it is safe to say that they are both  factory.

Hope that helps.

Josh
