For Sale 1967 Chrysler C300 4 Door Hardtop ( Not mine)

[coco]

Lovely exterior styling but the interior is very plain ! What a rear end

Dash mileage does not tally with claimed mileage ? maybe old pics?

Looks like a nice car if the pictures are real.

I saw the CB radio, and remembered this one. It's this the same car post here a while ago.

For Sale - 67 300 4 door Allentown CL

I don't know what the original seats would have looked like, but that's a low-rent re-do. White thread and very crooked seams = bad re-do. Probably the reason they have no driver's seat shots.

I don't deny it's done in the original style, but it's definitely redone.

I say that the second style from top is close to seats in the specific 300.

another nice car getting whined about...it's 2019 not 1967

I have worked in the manufacture of seat upholstery and best i can tell so far those stitching seams look like oem seat upholstery. As good as the product is today the manufacturers do not have the repeatability of stitching geometry and placement of the seams that the oem product has. Just because the one seam seems to slant in the picture does not mean squat. Over time the original thread will turn lighter in color

Why are always the nice cars picked on and and the junk that should be crushed fawned over like a newborn?

Better him than me. Upholstery work is not cheap!

Over all that's a great looking car.

It’s in our nature to pick on things we can’t have for whatever reason, it makes us feel better about it.

I didn´t even think about the stitching, but the seat centers, which seem to have a different surface texture than original.

Or... some of us have zero desire to obtain something, but our senses are drawn to mistakes and misrepresentation. If desire to own triggered criticism, I'd be shitting all over this heap. Hourly.

Nah, it’s a piece of junk.

It's a member's car. I suppose the only one I keep in my phone memory if I have to show a stranger what a "c" body looks like!

Did it go from a member to another one some time ago? There´s a few threads about it, but the car then changed its owner.

Hope this one finds a loving, long-term home. It seems nice, not sure if the red is scorch or ruby metallic; at any rate it looks like a nice finish, and works well with the black. The seats don't seem cheap to me, and seem correct for the car when compared to the factory lit., but I'm less picky about upholstery as long as it's reasonably presentable/accurate. Engine compartment isn't bad. Not highly optioned, but then again there aren't a lot of power motors to worry about, and there IS factory AC, wonder if it blows cold? The rear end of these '67 300's inspire strong (love or hate) emotions. The differing mileage amounts might be due to a typo. Is it me, or were there fewer 4-door 300's built that year?, you don't seem to see many of them.......

IMO, the tail lights with the reverse lights built into the bumper on the 67 model flow better with this body style than the 68 model year. Chrysler may have sold more 4 door units in 67 if these cars had the 68 grill up front.
The seats wouldn't bother me at all. This is a nice car that anybody can just hop in, turn the key, and drive.
