This 1961 Chrysler 300G is one of 1,280 hardtop coupes built for the model year and was refurbished before it was purchased by the current owner in 2020. The car is finished in red over tan leather upholstery, and power comes from a 413ci Golden Lion V8 equipped with a cross-ram intake manifold and paired with a TorqueFlite three-speed push-button automatic transmission. Other equipment includes 15” steel wheels, power-assisted steering and brakes, air conditioning, power windows, power-adjustable front swivel seats, an AstraDome instrument cluster, and a Golden Touch AM radio.
The Chrysler 300G was designed by Virgil Exner, and 1961 marked the final year of tail fins for the 300 letter series. This example is reportedly one of 141 coupes delivered from the factory in Mardi Gras Red, one of four standard colors offered, and it was repainted in its factory color under previous ownership. Equipment includes chrome-finished bumpers and trim, canted dual headlights, a power antenna, tri-color 300G badging, and dual exhaust outlets.
The 15″ steel wheels wear 300-branded chrome hubcaps with red centers, and they are mounted with Hankook Optimo whitewall radial tires. The 300G rode on a 126″ wheelbase and featured a front torsion bar suspension along with a live rear axle and leaf springs. The car was equipped from the factory with power steering and four-wheel power-assisted drum brakes.
The cabin features power-adjustable front swivel seats and fixed rear buckets trimmed in tan leather upholstery as well as a color-coordinated headliner and door panels. Black carpets line the floors, and additional equipment includes power windows, air conditioning, a Golden Touch AM radio, an analog clock, a locking glove compartment, a padded dashboard, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, and a full-length center console.
The two-spoke steering wheel features a partially transparent rim, and it frames an AstraDome instrument cluster that houses a 150-mph speedometer along with auxiliary readouts for amperage, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. A 6k-rpm tachometer is mounted in the center console. The five-digit odometer shows under 82k miles, approximately 25 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.
The 413ci Golden Lion wedge-head V8 was factory rated at 375 horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque and features a cross-ram intake manifold topped with dual four-barrel carburetors. An oil change was performed in August 2023.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a TorqueFlite three-speed push-button automatic transmission.
