I own a 300 C conv that was sold by dealer i8n 1957 near Hollywood and purported to be assigned for 6 (?) months to Marilyn Monroe.   I have a copy of this film (16MM sound...TV print) ; are you sure it is a D not a C ???   I looked and it appears the "Gun Box" was to be mounted to the slots under radio, where my record player is mounted.  I have been looking for glossies of Marilyn w/300C to no avail. Several other stars had 300's in their day, Bob Horton, Lana Turner, Bob Hope.....etc. etc.

This car should be easy to find….how many D’s came with a metal box below the temp control with a handgun inside. Was that a Chrysler option for 1958?

Subject: {Chrysler 300} Perry Mason

 

 

The other day I watched an episode of Perry Mason that was originally filmed on 11-8-58.  The name of the episode was: "The Case of the Married Moonlighters".  About 52  minutes into the show a 300D convertible made a brief appearance. The first scene showed the front of the car which one could see the bumper, grille, hood and windshield. The car had both outside mirrors. The next scene was Lt. Tragg getting in and sitting behind the steering wheel. Tragg had his hand under the dash looking for a lever that would open a metal box located just below the temp control lever. He was able to open the box and inside was a handgun.

The car was equipped with a (7) button radio, but not power windows. I can only imagine the thrill the owner had to see their car make it into a national tv show, or, did a dealer provide this beauty?

 

Where is this car?
