The 1961 300G got another restyle. The grille was wider at the top than the bottom, the quad headlights were side by side and the parking lamps below were V-shaped and slanted. The front bumper was canted up at each end, scoop-like. At the rear the taillights were moved from the fins to the tail below and the fins were pointed. Power windows were standard. A stock 300G won the One Mile Acceleration Run. This 300G is in factory Cinnamon, a color that was limited production.

One of the things that sets the 1961 Chrysler 300G apart from other cars of the time is the 413 cubic inch V8 engine. This is a real power house of an engine and a thrill to drive. It has a 3 speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission and smooth shifting.

The interior of the 1961 Chrysler 300G is just as impressive as the outside. Leather seats and all the high end features like air conditioning and power windows. The dash is beautifully designed and has all the gauges and controls.

The 1961 Chrysler 300G has a unique feature, the “Letter series” which is the last letter of the car’s model name, “G” in this case, it was used to indicate the level of luxury, performance and exclusivity of the car.

In summary the 1961 Chrysler 300G is a classic car that is available in our museum and should be cherished by any enthusiast. It’s a car that’s built to last and will give you many years of driving pleasure. Whether you’re a collector or just someone who loves to drive, this car will please.
