The Last True Chrysler 300
A Rare Muscle Luxury Car From The Malaise Era
When people think of the Chrysler 300 nameplate, they usually picture the legendary letter cars of the 1950s and ’60s, or the modern LX-based sedans that brought HEMI® V8 power back to Chrysler showrooms. But tucked in between those eras sits a model that’s often overlooked—the 1979 Chrysler 300. It wasn’t just another Cordoba clone with badges; it was the last true performance-oriented 300 ever offered until Chrysler revived the name decades later. And because of its limited run, its timing during Chrysler’s financial struggles, and the strict emissions environment of the late ’70s, this car holds a special place in Mopar history.
