RE: [Chrysler300] Re: J/K Ram car inner fenders question

There’s got to be more to that story! I was only 4 in 1964. I got my first 300 when I was 15 and it was a 1964 (sport coupe). And it was an “old” car by then. Did a 300F seem like an outdated car in 1964? I did a project where I clipped classified ads for 300Fs from 1960-1970. Interesting to see the prices over that year span. Here are the 1964 ones - https://photos.app.goo.gl/cr4sF3wqrNk9nd2J7

My first 300, an F. 1964 Changing plugs without removing the cover panels might be possible but at age 24, with my own Shell station and lift, in order to beat my brother's 348 1958 Impala rag in a drag race, I was sure I could do it without the inner metal removed. An hour later I removed the inner. Just saying....

If you don’t have access to a lift I can see what you’re saying. Interesting thoughts on the body drop at the plant. Although I don’t think they would have the air cleaners on when they do the drop. I’ll have to look and see if it looks like it would clear like that.

I've found it immensely faster and easier to change the plugs on my J with an open end wrench from underneath. I just jack it up enough to put it on jackstands. No need to remove the front wheels and panels. It was my understanding that the panels aren't for spark plug access. The inner fender openings were to allow the assembly line body drop to clear the air cleaners on the engine and the panels were only to cover the opening.
