Re: [Chrysler300] 300-G on ebay

[Richard Osborne <reomotorsports1@xxxxxx>]

Hi Bob, I currently own a black G convertible with factory a/c. Clearly more than 12 made. 

One option which I suspect is more rare that the a/c is the power (vacuum) door locks which I see the G in question has as does my G convertible. I believe that  Brian Franks G hardtop is the only other one I have seen with this option. I think it's very cool.

As an aside - I had three letter car coupes and three converts. None of the coupes had air and all of the converts did have air. Go figure.

As far as I'm concerned it is just hearsay unless or until it is verified that only 10% of all G converts built had factory air, or a specific number of total G convertible production with AC be confirmed. I would love to see an official confirmation of this number, and it would have to come from Gil Cunningham, as he is the only verifiable source on the question. Another bit of information, that would shed light on the issue would be to know how many G converts are in the Club registry with factory AC. Not sure if that is possible to determine, but others may know. Gloria?

As mentioned, the wire wheels are simply not correct, but I would excuse that if the car came with the original wheels and wheel covers-which are getting increasingly hard to find. Notice that there is only one picture of the engine compartment. Many details are not correct. No hood pad, no trunk lid felt liner, no picture of Trim Code plate. Only 12 made with AC? I know the numbers are low, but that sounds like a guess to me, and not based on factual information. I researched this several years back and was not able to come up with a definitive number. I had three G project cars, all had factory AC, I doubt that I had 25% of G production with AC in my back yard. The body and interior work does appear to be pretty well done though, but the devil is in the details now isn't it?

The engine compartment is a mess of things wrong. Red heater hoses? That shows a complete lack of research on what is correct. Hose clamps are all worm style, blue ignition wires, and what is the green thing by the washer bag? Two of the dash gages are also 62 style. If I had the money to buy something this expensive, I would at least want everything to be correct. But maybe that’s just me, maybe pretty is all that matters.
