Part of a private collection; garage-stored and rarely driven
Repainted approximately five years ago over a reportedly straight body
440 cu in V8 paired with the 727 TorqueFlite three-speed automatic
Oil leaks in the engine, gearbox, and rear axle rectified
The Appeal
The 1969 Chrysler 300 convertible is a rare and imposing full-size American drop-top, powered by the 440 cu in V8 - one of Chrysler's most celebrated large-displacement engines. With production numbers far lower than its hardtop counterpart, the convertible has become the 300 of choice - real mid-century American glamour.
This example was imported from the dry climate of California, which bodes well for its chassis! It's since formed part of a private collection in Central Estonia, where it has been garage-stored and rarely driven. The body was repainted approximately five years ago and presents well, with only a small dent noted on the passenger-side front wing.
Authentic American luxury from this period has never been more evocative, and we're sure this car will garner plenty of interest.image.png1.43 MB
