WOW,stunning, gorgeous looking machine. Absolutely Beautiful. Back when Chrysler built something special for someone special. Back when you could order color, engine,tires and hubcaps, interior style. A timeless masterpiece.

Buddy of mine, his dad had a 62 model 300 with a 4 speed, years of going to the dragstrip told me it was a musclecar.

What a beauty. It is a beautiful "boat" that rides like a dream with all that weight.

Yes, it is a Muscle Car. Yes, we need to see more. My personal fav is the 300D/E. The ultimate Forward Look. But the 413 Cross Ram cars are just....well pop the hood!

🇺🇸👍 They are a Gentleman’s muscle car with big low end torque.

You're so lucky to be able to drive these amazing automobiles 👌

Chrysler put those long ram intakes and swivel seats in their super deluxe wagons too. That dash is one the most fantastic ever made. Someone once told me the 413's were unbreakable. I doubt that, but I think it was earned praise.

Wish one of these would just accidentally show up in my back yard... I love early 60s 300s... I'll keep looking for one to show up, till then keep showing em on your channel, please.

Very nice Chrysler 300, and very interesting story of the fire 🔥

Thanks for sharing - beautiful car! I’ve been a Forward Look guy since I was a kid. I bought my ‘57 New Yorker in ‘78 and took it to the dealership that sold it new for some work. The service manager gave me a tip on filling the master cylinder under those boosters: take a piece of sheet metal about 2 inches wide by 6 inches long, bend a vee into it the long way and use it like a gutter to pour the fluid into the pot. Been doing it ever since.

To answer your questions.. YES YES AND MORE YESSES! So dang jealous of your job . You get to work on and drive cars that most of us only see a car shows and museums.

I love the Chrysler letter cars.

I was 20 in 1978 and bought a 300G for $1200 from a Seattle cop. At the time the engine had a single 4bbl, with the long rams, carbs, and air cleaners in the trunk The leather interior was in decent shape and the electroluminescent dash lighting even worked. I rebuilt the 413 and put the long rams back on. I also painted the car (it had no cancer!), and bought new wide white wall tires. I installed manual chokes because I didn't have the heat riser tubes that went from the exhaust manifolds to the undersides of the carbs. I sold the car in 1981 for........ $1200. Yep, that's what they were worth back then. I also nearly bought my brother's 300-C (392 dual quad) that he had been restoring but I had no storage room. He wanted $2500 for it in the early 90's. Yeah, there are some regrets with my prior car-buying escapades.

I love it! I definitely want to see more letter cars. I think that thing is just really super cool. And yes it is definitely a muscle car

What a great dashboard, and a great color. Thanks for the introduction to the 300 G.

I love it! And yes it’s a muscle car! Would not mind if you had more on your channel.

Thanks for a cool video30 years ago I rented this house I got back at a 57 Chrysler 300C convertible that needed everything he sent it out for paint body work done a new top I rebuilt the motor rear end tranny big project took years turned out great it was copper bronze metallic White interior sent out the weird brake booster to get redone that Bellows thing it was a cool car he had a little over 87,000 and after it was done then he got old and said well I got to sell it so I took it to auction he got 40 grand for it took a big hit but hey that was cool ride have a great day

I would always watch a vid on these ultra rare cruisers , more please. I so wish I could drive one myself.

A friend of my dad's had a GORGEOUS convertible one. He had one of those inflatable car bubbles for it, until the points on the back of the fins tore holes right through it.

My favorite classic car of all time. You know and engine is iconic when the Beach Boys sang a song about it.

Wow! What a beautiful peice of engineering and a fine machine!❤

God I love these cars.

Awesome car! I have a 64 New Yorker Hard top Wagon! Love the big ones! 🙂

Muscleboat? Have always thought these would be amazing on a really long road trip after throwing in a gear vendors unit. Like driving a couch across the country.

My dream car!!!

Yes, it is a muscle car. That is what I said about my 57 Fury with the dual Quads.

I happened to stumble upon a YT video about the 1961 Desoto right after watching this DDG episode. It made for a interesting comparison. However, poor Desoto...the front end was truly...words can't describe it.

Sweet car

Personally I like most all Mopars. A , B, C body. They are all great. I love the pull of a really torquey big block in any of them . Thank you for showing the car! Regards from Ody Slim

Wow!! I had a 1955 for a while with an under dash record player. Cool old car.

Love it!! Bring on that 65 too!

Beautiful car. I love the color. I think 413's are just swell too

Best exterior color ever....

😍Beautiful '61 which is one of the better looking cars out there!!👍👍

I dig these 300 cars. Definitely count me in the want to see more crowd.

Really cool. Brings back memories. My aunt Agnes had one something like this back in the mid 1960s. It was black with a white interior. She was the aunt who I thought was rich. Her hair was black and waaaay too big as were the gawdy rings she wore along with her rhinestone encrusted black horn rimmed glasses. And of course she chain smoked. But she could haul some serious ass in that beast. Picture that if you will.

I’ve never seen one of those before, very cool car

Cool video!! Enjoy these car lessons!!!! Keep up the good work.

Beautiful car. Very nice an unique style. And interesting engine.👍

Beautiful

Turn out seats like a Desoto coool

👍I sure miss the old cars. Thx. Best to ya sir. Great channel! 👍🇺🇸

Love it!

Thank you! A beautiful car I’d love to cruise in

I had a 300 G , I had to get gas at the airport . It's not particularly quick but it is terrifyingly fast , especially for a car where the steering wheel does not feel like it's connected to anything . The braking and handling were excellent compared to my 73 Country Squire . I loved my G and consider myself priveledged to have owned one .

The heater leak is probably from the heater control valve mounted up behind the glove box. I just changed the valve in my 60 a few weeks back. You have to take the glove box door off, take the glove box out to get at it up above the heater fan housing. Takes a bit of manipulating to get it out but not terribly difficult. Took me about 35 minutes to get it out and hanging down inside the glove box with the control cable still attached. Also had to make a new gasket before installing the rebuilt valve. Also had to remove one of the vacuum actuators to get it back in easily. Not the worst job...

I enjoyed the video!

That's NICE!!

Yah, more please. I love seeing/hearing the old ones that remind me of cigar smoke and cheap lipstick. Prime Detroit.

That is one cool Mopar 👍

It's a muscle boat! Awesome car, love the color combo and the spaceship dash. But how soes that sucker swallow 1200 CFM?

What a cool car on so many levels. Those twisting seats would be a nice ergonomic feature today. Plenty of room for both legs and shoulders- something that probably drives Truck sales in this era of downsizing. Large with the poor handling/braking typical for the era- but you can see bits of the styling carried over for several years afterward. But when you kick those dual-quads in- Yippee!! Funny to think that while Chrysler was designing and building this- they were designing components of Saturn 5, and had been building the Thor short-range nuclear-tipped missles. Maybe the reason for the 'rocket fins'. Glad Gary did OK it for you take us along for the ride.

Awesome 😎 car ✅✅

Very beautiful car. Kinda reminds me of the Studebaker Hawk , but bigger!

Just found this video! I'm working on a 61 Newport that I'm doing a 440 swap on. Using a 62 trans. I have a few videos up of it but haven't posted in a while. Love your videos, I watched the 440 build video to help me out.

Holy crap I didn't know tom was a twin. That's awesome. Me and jonnie are identical twins 9 minutes apart in age...me being the younger.

The Jay Leno video on his '61 300 G is very informative as he had a '61 300 G expert rattle off facts and figures. I have to say that Leno's 300 G in black has a very sinister, mafia look about it.

Beautiful C body Chrysler, thanks for sharing. I have a daily driver 64' Dodge custom 880, -A close relative of the 300 series.

Great Now I Need One Too ! 😂 Yes and we learned letter card Are Great 👍

It's a beautiful muscular boat!

I have owned 2 1961 300 G one in 1968-1970 raced in in H Stock Auto 13/50 13/90 constantly what fun got married in it 1968. It got sold didn't know what a letter car was till i sold it . Dummy now i own a completely restored 1961 which my wife and i enjoy after 57 yrs of marriage .we go to car shows people today don't even know what it is .Hope my kids enjoy it after we are gone..

I love it❤😅🎉

Man that's a old clean ride I like the old wing cars 🚗 dose that one have the push button trans yes it dose that's a clean ride

Yes, more letter cars and c bodies

That’s when Chrysler was Chrysler back in the day you knew exactly what you wanted and what you needed in that Chrysler. Chrysler designed,built,created,made and manufactured Rides ahead of their time because their cars were based on the Space Race Competition with The USSR or Russia 🇷🇺 back then. If I had the proper funds room & space I would definitely 👍🏾 buy and add that 300G to my Antique,Classic and Vintage Auto Collection + drive them around in the end of Spring and beginning of Summer into the beginning of Fall. I like that 65 Chrysler 300 sitting on it’s right next to it Two thumbs up 👍🏾👍🏾 my Brother another different mother 🧑🏼👵🏽 two thumbs 👍🏾👍🏾 Sincerely Yours Truly Ivan I J🤵🏾‍♂️💼🕶️👓👍🏾👍🏾

I like it, the dash is magnificent! but that blue 65 looks kinda cool, you’ll have to do a vid on it too 👍🏻

A muscle boat!

I drove my late friend's 62 300 w/ a 426 wedge and in line dual quads and CI headers at the drag strip. It's kinda frightening when you have 6k pounds of steel that is that fast.

I have a 62 sport coupe 300 in process of 800 horse 512 n new interior, yum!

I consider these to be, more "supercars" or "factory racers". The term "Muscle Car" really did not exist until Pontiac took a mid-size, lighter weight LeMans/Tempest, and put a full size car engine in it and called it GTO in 1964. The whole power to weight ration thing, light car, big engine. This is a big car, big engine, 100% amazing.

pushbutton auto. Nice!

It's a muscle car all the way.....Mopar or no car.....you know that 👍👍👍👍👍✅✅✅✅✅

They did over 150 mph.. Being a tall guy myself I always loved big Chrysler's(I own a few c bodies today and mainly b bodies)...Never owned a big Chrysler older than 1965 for myself as a daily driver,but my 66-70 C body Chrysler's beat up other muscle cars..and if I lose (rarely did) it wasnt by much.. they couldnt be to excited that they beat me as a car twice the size of theirs was right on their tail... I did ride in one of these a car club member back in the 90's took me for a ride and he beat up a 5.0 Mustang lol that guy looked pissed off! His had 3.23 gearing and tuned to perfection..Not sure if he had a cam in it but it sure moved!

Dad had a 300D and then a 300F. I was a teenager and really though they were cool.

I want that blue 1965, she is swe-E-E-E-E-E-E-t! !!!!

TORQUE = was the key to moving these large bodied cars of the line ! = 495 ft/lb

My friend that lives down that way had a black 1962 300 he sold a year or so ago. You may have seen it around town . Think he sold it with a white 62 parts car. Im drooling over that 65 300L , WOW !

What a ride they came with manuals to right.

Looking at this , listening and watching this ,,, my heart is broken ! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE USA ? ,, that's right ,, POLITICS ! What a beautiful machine , something to be proud of ! not this pride B-S we get today !

Wow, beautiful car. I need to see if you can offer any ideas about my 62 dart witch when gets driven on a hot day will not manually shift, therefore I can not shift to neutral to go to park, so if I shut her off the neutral safety won't let me start again until she cools down a bit. Any ideas?? Thanks

Beautiful car, esp in this color. 2:50 But it does suffer from the telltale sign of a missing PS pump bracket snubber. When the snubber is missing, it is near-impossible to fully tighten the PS belt. It will be tight enough to not squeal, but the belt can flop and rub on the water pump pulley. This bracket setup was actually quite ingenious, in that it allowed the bracketry to 'relax' when PS load was low, and when demand increased, the bracket would squirm a bit and bite the belt a bit more.

You were wrong!!G stands for groovy!

Get one.

More of these please ! Love those big bastard yank tanks , don't see many down under. Love ya channel , give yourself an uppercut , stuff the nay sayers.

I have a 61 Newport. The play in the steering is probably caused by a small rubber thing between steering gear and the steering wheel shaft. It is a pain in the butt to replace, so it rarely has been fixed. Part costs about 3$ in rockauto.

See Nicks Garage he just rebuilt the 63 version

I would never let this "Editor" near my G, if I had one

@Dead Dodge Garage Do you know good places or websites to find 68 chargers? Marketplace and scrap spots in Georgia/Alabama have been been disappointing.

We used to call them Typewriterflites.

Muscle cars were invented when the BIg car engines were put into smaller cars. Its muscular, but I would not call it a muscle-car. Hey, if I disconnect my battery my clock stops ticking. Thank you for the fun content Hello From Wisconsin. (fun story, Imagine your young girlfriend sitting there when the 200 degree coolant lands on her bare legs ... )

Not only are they muscle cars, they were called 300s because they were the first cars to have 300 hp from the factory. They’re beautiful machines BUT, like you… I’m an a body guy

The purpose of the removable fender aprons has nothing to do with spark plug access. They exist to clear the RAM manifolds as the front clip is lowered upon the front frame on the line.

👍🏻🇦🇺💯⛽️Mopar Heaven .

Wasn't a muscle car, But was a very very fast car for their time.A lot of muscle cars wouldn't run with them

Was this shot at Ben Snobar's old place? I attended the auction there after Ben's passing.

I'm 6'4 and somehow fit A body live a glove, it's the 170lbs soaking wet feature i think

Thanks Jamie. When I do thumbs up and comment you make more $

You dont need one! You got one at your house!

Guess you call it a muscle boat.

Astra Dome?
