Wrapping an original drivetrain in a tailored interior and 18 feet of stylish sheet metal, this gorgeous Chrysler 300C is one of just 484 produced. The car's breathtaking appearance comes courtesy of a 2-year frame-off restoration that involved solid, rust-free metal, extensive financial backing, and countless hours of research and hard work. The core of that restoration consists of a straight body that hangs all original sheet metal over original factory installed floorpans. That body’s super-slick appearance is provided by a smooth Gauguin Red base coat/clear coat finish, which displays beautifully.

This drop-top is powered by its original 392ci Firepower V8 engine that wears a 300C-specific serial number and a whole roster of correct ancillary components. The engine’s power flows through a period-correct A488 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic transmission to a correct rear end. All the car’s road-worthy hardware rides on 14” wire wheels spinning BFGoodrich Silvertown whitewall tires. From the John Staluppi Cars of Dreams Collection.
