Lets Play A Game: Last Of The Convertibles

[ayilar]

It looks like I never posted the tag of DL27L0D173679 -- an EB3 that was for sale in Regina, SK as far back as 2011, remained for sale for 7-8 years. Thanks to the efforts of @Tobias74, it has since 2018 moved to Germany. Tobias also gets credit for sharing the tag on FCBO when this car was his.

That blue 'vert does not have a Canadian C VON: that makes sense, as I learned today that the car was found in a garage in St Cloud, MN before moving to Regina, SK. Many thanks to @Tim Giokas for connecting me with the previous owner in Canada. I look forward to talking to the latter about this car and hopefully also about DL27L0D148841, my turquoise Polara 'vert, as the latter lived in Regina too (for 50 years, before I acquired her from Tobias).

Apparently this one is on eBay right now.

CE27LOC254937 was born ER6 red. In some photos, the paint looks almost like DR8 in those photos. This begs the question of whether this Newport ´vert has been repainted. Here is the state of affairs.

Late SBD: June 16, 1970.

Here is a link to the EBay listing: Sign in or Register | eBay

I am a little surprised to see 12 bidders with 39 bids and still more than 4 days left until the end of the auction.

Thanks to @marko we now know about CE27N0C110050. This well-equipped, Canadian-market, DY3 1970 Newport 'vert is a rare N-code and was put on a flatbed right before her appointment with the crusher! The car is toast, but will help save others.

Thanks to @Samplingman we know about yet another 1970 300 'vert.

CM27T0C110092 has a SBD of Sept. 2, 1969. Originally EB7 blue with a blue M6B3 interior and V3X black top, this poor Chrysler has been (poorly) repainted in Hurst colors while its interior side panels and buddy seat have been (badly) dyed black. The original 440 is gone, replaced by a 383-2.

It is currently listed for sale on eBay.

2. thanks to the combined efforts of @Samplingman and @71Polara383, we have the tag of CM27T0C226256 -- an FT6 300 'vert with an SBD of April 23, 1970 that was regrettably repainted in black at some point. The original brown paint is still visible on the trunk pan.

Here are the tag and VIN of CE27L0C254935 (not, as I incorrectly typed five weeks ago, CE27L0C254937 ) -- a Newport with a June 16, 1970 SBD

I recently posted the tag of DL27TOD117383 -- an EF8 green 1970 Polara 'vert with SBD of Sept. 6, 1969 that sold on eBay last week. Here is a closer shot for records.

The car was bought by the seller to get the engine out, but after he and I talked he decided to sell it whole instead and made the effort to get the title for it from the previous owner. As a result, this 'vert still has its original engine and transmission. It needs some body work and an interior redo.

Oooo, the air cleaner is turned upside down... POWER!!!

Did anybody here buy that green T-code 1970 Fury convertible that was for sale in Florida a while back?
Wondered if it got justice and was restored.

@ACR Nick just posted the tag of PM27L0D137667 in his "welcome!" thread:

Welcome, ACR Nick

This FK5 (now red) Fury is undergoing major surgery following a frame hit; her SBD was Oct. 14 (thank you @69CoronetRT) 1969. She got her L-code engine through the A06 A/C Group (383 2bbl, tinted glass and A/C).

Here are some photos of PM27N0D117723, a Canadian Furyiii 'vert. This car has lost its fender tag, but the friend of @70 Sport Suburban who owns this well-equipped (buckets, console, power windows,...) ragtop has already started bringing her back to her former glory. It is the 8th N-code Fury ragtop to come to light on FCBO.

A member kindly contributed the fender tag of CM27T0C167979 -- this nicely equipped 300 'vert has a SBD of Nov. 19, 1969 (B19). Originally B7 blue with white (thanks @saforwardlook ) buckets/buddy and black top, it has been repainted inside/out and is now black/red. It is currently for sale.

So many of these in B7 have come to light in the past few years, I count at least five. Either a high survival rate or a very popular color in 1970. This one would be interesting to see in its original white interior/black top. I’m on the fence with what I’m going to go with on mine, but I’m partial to white even though it is tagged for black.

Samplingman these photos might convince you to go white?

Is this CM27T0C224971 -- did you buy the car? Regardless, courtesy @ceebuddy and @69CoronetRT, here is the fender tag for this stunning 1970 Chrysler 300 Convertible in EB7 blue that sold in Bennington, NE in fall 2020. The SBD is April 21, 1970.

 

[Imperial Pete]

Yes it is CM27T0C224971 from Bennington Nebraska. It is now down under in Melbourne Australia.
Will put some more pictures up when I get a chance if you guys would like to see more.
