Announcing a surprise party for 1955 Chrysler C-300, VIN 3N551198—Shipped 3/17/55-- St. Patrick’s Day-Thursday. (Can you imagine a C-300 in 1955 Chrysler colors Jade Green Poly, Shantung Green Poly or Porcelain Green?) The ’55 C-300’s officially went on sale 2-11-55 and C-300 number 198 was manufactured 3-12-55—on a Saturday so they may have been working overtime. 58 years ago and eligible for AARC. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun?
Anyone have a build/ship date for the earliest C-300, prototypes and/or standard production run?
Cards and e-mail only—no gifts. Pictures available on request.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow! The Beautiful Brute will be exercised this weekend in 80-degree sunshine.
