Rare, No-Reserve Example Set for Auction...​

The Chrysler 300 nameplate has been a symbol of American luxury and performance since 1955. While many associate the 300 with the iconic letter-series models, there was also a non-letter series produced from 1962 to 1971 that offered a more affordable alternative. The 1968 Chrysler 300 Convertible is one such example, and it’s about to make its way to the Mecum Kissimmee auction in January 2025, where it will cross the block with no reserve.

Those Chrysler emotions run deep and for good reason, one of which appears here in the story line. My emotion has moved to anger, I’m seething with anger at what those overseeing this magnificent brand have done and failed to do.
I’ve stated that anyone tasked with reviving Chrysler must spend a week riding, viewing, sitting and absorbing these magnificent machines to sense the essence of the Chrysler ethos. This is to be a 24 hour, seven day week, in the absorption though sight and touch, sound and psychological conditioning, memorizing every model name and correct spelling, a total immersion experience. Chrysler advertisements play continuously, even while asleep. Total Chrysler.
Then maybe, maybe they can continue their assignments and quell my anger.
Failure will result in riding for hours in a Toyota. Some may call this abuse, torture, but the task ahead is too vital to allow the nonbelievers to undertake the divine.

You obviously haven't driven the latest Toyota Crown Sedan, I have. My impression of the car is that some Japanese engineers spent time ... "riding, viewing, sitting and absorbing these magnificent machines to sense the essence of the Chrysler ethos." Then after they were done Toyota came up with a better Chrysler.

Maybe whoever ends up running the Chrysler brand should spend time with some Lexus products in addition to studying automotive paleontology.
