HaHa, at least I can convert my Ram dash to US instead of metric.

So, fuel consumption is now Liters/KM,
oil pressure in kPa, wheel size in MM, torque in dyne-cm, power in kW?
What else? At least all the clocks and the calendar are the same, eh?

Hi
Rich - 1977 Canadian cars were the first year to have metric speedometers and
odometers.
Trivia
- I have a Canadian ‘79 Cadillac with metric speedo and odometer. That’s all
the law initially required. As such, the heater/ac control dial is in
Fahrenheit.
(it’s
finally warming up here - a month late!)
Wondering what year Canada
switched to metric speedometers and whether Chrysler sent Detroit-built 300’s
SOUTH across the Detroit River into Ontario with metric speedometers?? I
think Canadian-built 300’s actually say Saratoga on the front fenders.
Then wondering if the Canadian Chrysler plant built any Silver Editions?
Real busy here in lockup.

Yeah,
really nice car!!! So that would have been in the Muscle Car section of
that CIAS at the Toronto Convention Center that year, 2014. Thanks Allan.
The
Silver edition (available only in metallic Silver on black leather interior
with black leather top) was another Chrysler mid-year addition. Since it was
included in 1964's 2-door hardtop production (13,401 vs 3,022 for 300K), we
can't tell how many of this fine variation were built.

The
1964 Chrysler 300 Silver Edition was in the 2014 CIAS Canadian Auto Show
in Toronto.
It's
absolutely beautiful to my eye and I had hoped that the owner, past or present
is know to the club. I only want to learn what the wheel sizes are as the
stance to me is perfect. Not easy to confirm, but I think the rear wheels are
larger than the fronts.

Does
anyone know who the owner of this 300 may be? It was shown in Toronto, but the
picture states Ontario. CA.
