Re: {Chrysler 300} 1961 G convertible local car

[Hank Hallowell <Hank@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I realize I should know this…but of the original 337 how many do we know actually survive? (That’s a Gloria Moon question, I think). 

To John’s point: almost any surviving G convertible is worth sacrificing a variety of non letter donor cars in order to save…given the incredibly low (by Detroit standards) production numbers.

of course I may just be crazy but that’s what our total effort is all about….and why we are dedicated to these cars.

As a west coast car it’s probably much less rusty than other G convertibles that have been rescued in the rustier parts of the continental United States.

An age-old question I guess.  How bad does a G convertible have to be to not be worth saving?  There were only 337 to begin with.  Maybe not worth a show-car restoration, but maybe a safe, driver quality refurb?

Hi club members, I just a look at a 1961 G convert for sale in Oregon City. OR. The guy wanted $67,000 for a Black car and a tan interior. He called me and said he would take $50,000. The car is good for only a restoration or parts car. I will not buy this car, it can not be a driver. Call me if your interested about the description. I have then VIN and data plate info
