RE: [Chrysler300] Need parts for 1957 Chrysler 300C

My car was built 2 days before yours - without air conditioning.  It has the six blade fan like yours but with a silent drive.  It makes sense that your air conditioned car would have a direct drive to increase air flow at idle.

 

A five blade fan with varying blade spacings reduces the chance of resonating fan belts and may have been a later innovation.  The blade pitch or size may be greater to keep the air flow the same.

Mine has a build date of 6/4/57. That would seem to follow the “whatever they had” theory.

Perhaps, changes were made (or upgrades as they became available) during the production year. It may be important when siting these examples, on various cars, to include the production number and /or date of manufacture. Seems to me this would clear up a lot of guesswork. 
Comments!?

This confirms when a 300 came down the production line, if the correct part was not at hand, it received what was at hand.
