1962 Chrysler 300H Convertible
$71,500

413 cid overhead valve V8 engine equipped with dual Carter AFB four-barrel carburetors and long-ram induction rated at 405 horsepower, three-speed Torque-Flite automatic transmission, four-wheel power-assisted hydraulic drum brakes; wheelbase: 122"

Performance was the word of the day when it came to the 300H, and with one look under the hood even the casual observer realized this set-up meant business. With a base price of $5,461, it was by far the most expensive car in the Chrysler line-up and the most rare of all 300-letter cars with just 123 examples produced. Finished in its original Oyster White with the embossed tan leather bucket seats and tan soft-top, this car is showroom fresh having had a complete restoration. Among the luxury appointments are the Golden Touch AM radio, electric clock, center console with tachometer, and factory air conditioning. Adding to the comfort of the driver were power steering and brakes, power windows and seats, and remote control rearview mirror. Showing 8,230 miles during our inspection, these appear to have been since restoration as there are some very light signs of usage. This car has always been kept in a climate controlled atmosphere to help preserve its elegance and speed. It has been a while since we last saw one of these cars at auction, which means this is a rare opportunity to add the premiere letter-car to your collection.
