Hello group. I heard an explanation to this once since I have seen several 61 with 62 grill surrounds. I was told that after 1962 the 1961 grill went out of stock and Chrysler did'nt make them anymore because of that they had the 62 grill. A 1961 car that was in an accident after the 61 grills went out of the dealer stock, they took a 62 grill as it was almost the same. No use for Chrysler to have two grills that was almost similar in stock. That's why many Chrysler 1961 has 62 grills. Almost always replaced by a Chrysler dealer.. An explanation that makes sence to me anyway.... True or not? It's up to you to decide.... When I write grill I mean the surround of course. Best regards...

Do ALL 61 Chryslers have this or is it only select models? A friend of mine recently bought a black 61 Newport Convertible and its grille does not have Chrysler on it. It has the horizontal slats but no CHRYSLER. I don't know the production date of the car. The seller told him that the grill is original. > >Mark Souders >300H >Mohrsville, PA > > >[Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > ------------------------------------ To send a message to this group, send an email to: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For list server instructions, go to http://www.chrysler300club.com/yahoolist/inst.htm For archives go to http://www.forwardlook.net/300-archive/Yahoo!
