For some reason, I missed all the replies by @330dTA @fc7_plumcrazy and @Kaim a year ago
The Burgundy U-code seems to be on the road. It’s owner lives in a small city in Northern Finland.
With the help of @Kaim , I found another burgundy 300 'vert in Finland. CM27T0C113618 has been for sale on-and-off via Netti since January of this year. Posting it here too, since we are discussing Finnish registration data in this thread.

Here's a seventh 300 'vert currently advertised here -- CM27T0C156796

More info from @Kaim or @330dTA or @ImpJay (or anyone else who knows this Chrysler) would be greatly welcome!

First registration to Finland (Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom) was 6/19 2023. Insurance for this car has been purchased 3/17 2023. New top and windshield, 440 + 727.
 
Hey everybody! 1077 Chrysler 300 convertibles of the 1970 model were produced. We have maybe 5 of them here in Finland, certainly more in Sweden, but how many are left in the USA?

I love the 70 300 convertibles. It would be awesome if we knew how many were left. I am so fortunate to currently own 3 of them.

I have been creating a small, still very partial, database of the 1970 C-body convertibles, building on work started by @polara71 (supported by @Fratzog @fc7_plumcrazy and @71Polara383 among others) for Polaras, @70 Sport Suburban for Furys, and @67valiant 100 (supported by @marko @Samplingman and @boostedvan ) for Chryslers. Many others have helped, including but not limited to @Lycidias @69CoronetRT @cuda hunter @saforwardlook @69monaco @ceebuddy @ImpJay and @SportFury70 — apologies to those I’m not listing, pls everyone keep references (photos, listings, VINs, fender tags) coming!

The Automobile Catalog website states "1077" for 1970 Chrysler 300 conv USA production.

If you've got three, I wonder who might personally own more (fully operational)?

Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!

Yes all three are operational. I’m crazy enough that I sold my 68 Charger. I would prefer the 70 300 convertibles over the 68 Charger.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

Check out this thread and start counting:

Lets Play A Game: Last Of The Convertibles

Yep, that Last Convertibles thread (started by @67valiant 100 and with many contributions by, among others, @polara71 @70 Sport Suburban @71Polara383 @ceebuddy @fc7_plumcrazy @cuda hunter @Kaim @330dTA @detmatt @Fratzog @Samplingman @sixpkrt @marko @boostedvan @azblackhemi @3175375 @fury fan @saforwardlook @Snotty @1970FuryConv @ImpJay @T-revorNobody @crv @SportFury70 @69monaco @Mr onetwo @69CoronetRT @bigmoparjeff @LocuMob @Carona @Tobias74 @Big_John @dh23t @FurySD @rags @MrMoparCHP @carfreak6970 @polaratherapy @Dobalovr as well as legendary members @Fury440 @1978 NYB and many others -- apologies to those not mentioned) is indeed the place where to look.

--> This morning, before going back to work, I went back to that thread and uploaded a list of 104 known T-code 300 convertibles in this post and another updated list of 30+1 known U-code 'verts in this post. That's 11% of the 942 T-codes produced, and 25% of the 135 U-codes made, in 1970. I have also posted a list of 8+2 N-code Newport 'verts here and of 50 L-code Newport 'verts here.

Number of vehicles that have been identified is probably close to the real number that exist. I suspect that there won’t be many more to catch. However, keep on trying!

Several P/D/C 1970 'verts that were previously unknown to me show up every month. So the hunt indeed continues.
