Re: [Chrysler300] Silver 300 in the picture

Trivia - I have a Canadian ‘79 Cadillac with metric speedo and odometer. That’s all the law initially required. As such, the heater/ac control dial is in Fahrenheit.

Wondering what year Canada switched to metric speedometers and whether Chrysler sent Detroit-built 300’s SOUTH across the Detroit River into Ontario with metric speedometers?? I think Canadian-built 300’s actually say Saratoga on the front fenders. Then wondering if the Canadian Chrysler plant built any Silver Editions?

Real busy here in lockup.

Yeah, really nice car!!! So that would have been in the Muscle Car section of that CIAS at the Toronto Convention Center that year, 2014. Thanks Allan.
The Silver edition (available only in metallic Silver on black leather interior with black leather top) was another Chrysler mid-year addition. Since it was included in 1964's 2-door hardtop production (13,401 vs 3,022 for 300K), we can't tell how many of this fine variation were built.

The 1964 Chrysler 300 Silver Edition was in the 2014 CIAS Canadian Auto Show in Toronto.

It's absolutely beautiful to my eye and I had hoped that the owner, past or present is know to the club. I only want to learn what the wheel sizes are as the stance to me is perfect. Not easy to confirm, but I think the rear wheels are larger than the fronts.

"Canada" is often shortened to "CA"

Does anyone know who the owner of this 300 may be? It was shown in Toronto, but the picture states Ontario. CA.
