Elegant, imposing, and unmistakably American, the Chrysler 300 Cabriolet represented the pinnacle of the marque’s full-size luxury range combining commanding presence with effortless V8 performance. Offered here is a particularly rare example that is showing a mere 11,000 miles on the odometer. In its day, the Chrysler 300 sat proudly at the top of Chrysler’s lineup, exuding refinement and power in equal measure. The 1970 model year introduced the more angular ‘fuselage’ design and has since become highly sought-after by collectors. Its bold proportions and sweeping bodywork make it one of the most distinctive American convertibles of its era.
This impressive 1970 300 Cabriolet was imported to the UK from the dry climate of Dubai. Imported by the vendor, an enthusiast who was intent on recommissioning the car and running it on the road but who unfortunately, has suffered from recent ill health that now prevents him from continuing with the project. His intention had been to return the car to its former grandeur; a goal now left for its next custodian to realise. This Chrysler presents as an ideal candidate for completion, an honest and largely original project with the fundamentals in place and much of the work already undertaken.
The car has benefited from several key works since its arrival; the lights, brakes, washers, and wipers have all been recommissioned, a new battery has been fitted, and a replacement steering wheel has been installed. We are informed that all relevant UK import duties and taxes have been paid, and the car has been kept garaged since importation. Reported by the vendor to run and drive well, the work required is mainly cosmetic.
For the enthusiast seeking a distinctive and seldom-seen American convertible, this 1970 Chrysler 300 Cabriolet offers an exciting opportunity. Rarely encountered on UK shores, it represents a fine blend of luxury, performance, and period style as an imposing open-top tourer with genuine presence and charisma. With the groundwork complete, this example awaits the attention of a discerning collector to complete its journey and bring it back to its former glory. Consigned by Will Penrose
