1965 Chrysler 300L 4-speed car - one of just 98!

[patrick66]

A four-speed '65 300L hardtop. Very damn nice! Perfect color combo, for me. Much want in my heart for this one. A mere $45K! Gotta check my MegaMillions ticket, I guess. Located on Bring-A-Trailer.com and on the Olympia, WA CL:

That is HOT Patrick !

I'm not sure how it could be any nicer, love, love, love it!

For that much money, it should be absolutely perfect and correct. This one, although nice, isn't.

Dealer installed dual quads, hope he has documentation. It needs paint and most likely a steering wheel recast. $45K is too much.

With 98 built, how many are there like this one? It has a later Hurst shifter, which is hands-down far and away a better shifter over the original Inland unit, so that is a good upgrade. As is the dual-quads, which as stated, a dealer-available option. I'd expect the factory AM/FM to work at this money. Lastly, look at the antenna placement...wasn't that supposed to be on the RF fender, like other Mopars then???

Minor nits to pick, but I'd still have a stiff pecker, driving this one around! Beautiful automobile!

Looks like it was converted to electronic ignition too.

It's a beautiful car no doubt!

I don't give a crap how beautiful (or not) it is. No slab is worth that.
And don't give me the "you can't build it for that price" line.
Extraordinary car but he'll never find anyone to offer over 25k.

patrick, orig shifter was Hurst on all 65 4 speeds,ply,chry, or dodge. Went to inland in 66

 

[rexus31]

Yup. I built my car for less than that purchase price.

I believe the power antenna was the right rear quarter.

These people want the impulse buyer. They are out there, the car being accurately valued or not. Barrett Jackson is full of them. but they are usually drunk.

I'm also thinking it's overpriced by 10-15k but stranger things have happened. They're hoping someone from the more-money-than-brains crowd will pop out of the woodwork and snap it up at their price.

Nice slabby. Not crazy about 4spd in car that size but what the hell it's still a very cool set of wheels. Definitely a stop light sleeper.

 

[detmatt]

I don't care how much it cost as I'm not buying it but it is close to being something that I would have ordered had I been the one who bought it new. Stunning!

If I was selling it I would ask for a crazy $$$$ and then get the $20k price that I really want for it. Win-Win for everybody.

I doubt that he thinks it's crazy $$$$. I believe he really thinks it's worth $45k. He'll pimp this car forever and a day, finally consign it to a sleazy classic car dealer, and it will sit there for another two years.

 

[1978 NYB]

Unfortunately....that's probably true.

Hmm, Lakeland?
