[Chrysler300] FW: 300 Emblem





Dean and all:

 

This may resolve the mystery of the unlettered side emblem.  (Excerpts)  Thanks, Jeff.

Hi Rich,

 

As to the 300 medallion, I have an NOS one of those as well (without the chrome bezel).  I got it from Merle Wolfer back in the late '80s, before he sold the 300F Special to Wayne Graefen.  The plastic medallion is the exact one used from 1957-'61 on the Chrysler 300 quarter panels, but the holes for the letters weren't drilled.  Merle stated at the time that some of these were released in the early-mid 1960s as service replacements once the individual alphabet letters had gone NS-1.  In this way the letters could be transferred to the new medallion if desired, yet it didn't look unfinished without the letter.  I don't know what the chrome bezel is from, but I suspect it and the medallion were married together to make a display piece at some point.  Cool looking piece for sure

 

Jeff
