Re: [Chrysler300] '60 to '64 NROS Rocker Panel For Sale

[Michael Falcone <mjf175@xxxxxxx>]

I just repaired my 61 300-G rear quarters using the classic to current rocker panels. They were very nice quality part, heavy gauge metal, nice sharp bends. I cut them down and fabricated the rounded end at the wheel well opening.

I have no idea whether or not the panel will fit a G. That's what reads on the 
label they placed on the inside of the panel. You have the photos and maybe you 
should send them to Don Verity, who is that model's year consultant for the 
club, to get his opinion.

I take umbrage to your insinuation that I am gouging a fellow club 
member because I am asking $50 for a NROS rocker panel ("market will bear"), the 
opposite of which fit perfectly on my 1964. You don't know what I paid for these 
panels and your assumption that I am ripping you off for $25 is not only 
ludicrous but it is insulting as well. 

I recently gave away a complete '65 413 engine with a matching Torqueflite 
tranny to a member for no charge because I felt he could keep some MoPar alive 
with it. I recently sold a NOS crankshaft for a 300F for only $100, it was still 
in the original Chrysler box. Now that I am beginning to tear down my 300E, I am 
taking out a '64 300K 360hp engine complete with original carburator and air 
cleaner to replace it with the original engine. For you, it's $5,000, for other 
members who could use it to finish their restoration project, it will be free.

Best,

Hi Ron,

I went on Classic 2 Current's website. I didn't see an outer rocker panel with a 
part # 095-124 like you list for a 1960-64 Chrysler. They have an outer rocker 
panel for a 1960-61 Chrysler 2-door which is part # 095-024 and for a 1960-61 
Chrysler 4-door which is part # 095-044.

I don't see your part # listed at all and I don't see outer rocker panels for 
the 1962-64 Chrysler. Are you sure your part will fit the 1961 Chrysler? (I see 
they list their trunk floor fitting 1960-64 Chrysler so I'm wondering why they 
wouldn't still do the same for the rocker panel.) I'm wondering if they 
determined there was a difference/change from 1960-61 and 1962-64. Perhaps I 
should call them and inquire.

Their outer rocker panels are listing for $24.99 each side. Any reason yours is 
$50.00 other than what the market will bear? Has there been extra work done to 
make it fit better etc.?

The photos look fine. I just need to make sure this will fit a 1961 Chrysler. 

Thanks,

Brian
