I hope you get one someday, Donald. Can't remember a video where you were so enthusiastic and happy through its entirety. Car looks great on you! Thanks for the vid!
Brilliant! Donald looks so proper in his suit and bow tie behind the wheel of this powerful and sporting machine. Hammer down!
My dad had a 300F and I was only sixteen! What a cool dad!
Land yacht indeed, thanks Donald!
Sweet, sweet car. If Heaven has an auto industry, this is the kind of car they manufacture.
'A LAND YACHT' YES, WITH MOVES! LIKE A PRIME ALI IN SHEETMETAL! LOVE THESE GLORIOUS BEASTS! CLASSY CHANNEL!
Not only did I love the car, I loved the scenery of New England. ...we're not in Burbank any more!
Being a kid from the late 60s early 70s I remember how big of a deal our first color tv was. Told everyone I could when it was coming. Also vowed to never watch black and white anything ever again. Maybe a Godzilla or two. Now being older and knowing how bad some stuff is ,now I started reverting back to catch the old stuff I remember and missed. You only had two chances back then September and during the summer when outside activities kept you from the TV. Shows never to be played again. Catching up with classics is great and my main driving force is seeing the bran new old cars on the show. As you I love seeing them in mint condition with the slightly older in the background. It is also my way of dating movies and shows fairly accurately by the age of the cars. My own personal game but I love it.
Will never see those old rides in there natural environment again.
Another incredible piece of Machinery from Chrysler! That backseat with its own center console is crazy cool! The design and all the Chrome back in those days definitely made the time era! I have a 1950 Plymouth Series 6 four door Deluxe. It's the bottom of the barrel basic model and it still has tons of chrome. I really miss the front bench seats in cars also.
I had a 68 300. Big ole 440.
Wonderful description because you describe this car from your Heart and Soul every mile is another compliment of automotive love
Great job describing a powerful American full size car. And what a car featured today!
My uncle donated to the NC dept. of transportation museum, a black 1960 300 originally owned by Junior Johnson. It had the 413 with the cross ram dual quad carbs. It is an elegant beast with swivel seats and the dome speedometer cluster. Every bell and whistle imaginable.
Donald, would you please stop smiling! It’s distracting! Ha ha ha. Your enthusiasm for the 300G made this video. That was when cars were works of art. My folks had a Dodge Lancer in the early 60s. Loved that push button gear shifter. Thanks a million for the video. Hope you get your wish soon to buy one of those gems.
You might enjoy the tv series called crime story it was from the 80 s I think but based in the late 50s and early 60s las Vegas. Lots of nice cars used the series.
Lov this Show especially the ones with him n Jay Leno such a great series I look forward 2 these episodes 👌🍁❤️ Migwech ❤️
What more can be said of the design genius of Virgil Exner combined with Chrysler muscle..perfection. Speaking of old TV shows and their cars "Highway Patrol" is a must see, Brodrick Crawford tossing around a 1956 Buick is hilarious.
And tossing around the 1957-58 Forward-Look Dodges.
I had the chance to drive one of these wonderful cars a few years ago- that instrument cluster was so cool. The transmission took some getting used to, but the car was fabulous to drive! Donald, that car fits you 😉
like a glove
Early 60's Chrysler cars are the strangest, yet most beautiful cars of anything before or after
Fantastic video, well done Donald.
Beaitiful beast
Beautiful car. Wow. That interior. Shiny or clear steering wheel. Graceful styling. Jay Leno has a couple imperials. And a 300G 😎❤❤🍷🥂🍾👍
Thank you Donald, this is a true masterpiece of the american car industry. In a parallel world I put this Chrysler beside some sporty models of the wonderful Lancia Aurelia and Flaminia.
those seat just tell you the 60s got another level for luxury
I was in Newport last week, and I did go look in the front window of the Audrain Museum and saw some of the cars in the Land Yachts exhibit, including this one, but, unfortunately, I didn't have time to go in and see the rest of the collection, much to my regret. But, I did go into the La Forge Casino restaurant, just down the block, and had a fantastic lunch. This is the restaurant that is seen at the beginning of each episode of Audrain Mansions and Motorcars, and where Donald Osborne and Jay Leno end up eating. What a a fabulous restaurant, I recommend it highly.

Hello Donald . One of my all time favourites in style , comfort and performance . Thanks Donald .
Awesome , Thanks Donald 😊
Donald is a cool cat
When I was in my teens a friend of mines boyfriend had one of these with a floor stick shift in it, I always wondered if it came that way, it seemed out of place in that big car...
Nice car, nice title, very non-PC. Many such cars from this era have some style and following. I have a 67 Mercury Cyclone which was billed as a "Man's car" in the brochure. A dealer's selling point back in the day. Maybe not so much today; cuz now, "who knows who is what", eh? :D
Cool car Donald
Beautiful car! Thank you Donald for sharing this!
Wonderful car, wonderful video. I, too, am a lifelong fan of Virgil Exner's designs. While the 300 letter cars fit the category of land yacht by virtue of their sheer size and weight, I would suggest that the "G" also qualifies as an American GT. It's loaded with all the luxury and comfort amenities of a Cadillac or Lincoln, but neither of those two cars could approach the speed and handling of this mighty MoPar.
Informative; thank you for sharing it with us!
Another great video of a fabulous looking car, thanks Donald! My ‘52 Triumph Mayflower would probably fit in the boot….sorry, trunk! As always, I could listen to Donald all day. 🙂
Interesting, Richard Petty autographed this car but I think Petty had a '60 F Pont a Mousson (four speed), not a G. He showed me his collection in January of 2005. I am pretty sure this is the old Bradley Teets car that he restored in c2003. Brad's car was considered the gold standard of G restorations when finished.
The factory 1961 three speed manual cars are known as the 'Code 281" cars. Only four are known (several fakes exist). A 5th burned in a big fire about four years ago in (I think) Sacramento, CA. Exceptionally rare and finding one today would be nearly impossible. One is owned by a 300 Club member and not for sale at any price, One (that I owned and restored) is now in the middle east. Not sure where the other two known cars are. The club has estimated between nine and fifteen were built.
Thank you Donald for "sharing the ride". Just so happened I saw two G convertibles in the Boston area last year. One white like yours and the other was cinnamon. What magnificent vehicles.
did this car have the swivel seat wish you could talk about the cross ram carburation and show us the big trunk
Yes, the 300G did have swivel seats
Very cool with the 4 bucket seats...........but I know Jay has a couple of the letter car's.........has he let you drive any of them.........maybe the feul injected one???
Great video Thanks for sharing!
love it 🥰
There is no place for a hotrod in my garage, so I built one for my living room in scale 2:3 with a Jukebox functionality 😅
One of the best American cars ever built! That dashboard itself is a true work of industrial art IMO! It's too bad that front end is so darn ugly! LOL! Thank you for featuring it Mr. Osbourne!
You were definitely SOMEBODY if you owned this car!
Exner st@rted shedding the fins n Chrysler cars in 61 on the 1961 Furys
I watch Perry for the same reason. 60's Mercurys usually.
Grate job
The Daytona speed run was marred by the fact that the trim around the windshield came off.
Chrysler named it the 300 because it was the first car to have 1hp per cubic inch of engine displacement.
Great video, always enjoy your perspective. I am not as knowledgeable as I would like to be about some of these older cars. Would be interested to hear more about the Drivetrain thanks. Keep up the good work😊
Mopar guy here. Feeling the love! Haha.
I also would like a C300 or 300C. Wanna split one? 😉
Deal!
I think that the 62 Grand Prix and the 61 T Bird had successfully competed with it
Talk about that engine!
Thanks, Team Audrain, & Donald……great general overview!! Interestingly, the **Manual Transmissions in these LETTER Models (* ** & some **others ALWAYS INTRIGUED ME (( as I had a 1966 GALAXIE XL/ 4 speed/ BURGANDY EXT/ Black Deluxe INT/352 * ( sadly)… bought from our locaL CHRYSLER / Dodge dealer ..)) Us Car guys always heard ( & seen a few) rarities like this 300G( how many MANUEL TRANSMISSIONS Survivors are left?.), &; the **1967 FORD STATION WAGON/428/ 4 Speed( really a one off: HAGERTY Barn Finds)……ps:my Grandfather finally buying ( their last Car), a 1963\300/2=Door /4 BBL:but ((* NO AIR CONDITIONING, HE was appalled by air Conditioning’s, I always wondered how many 1963 CHRYSLER 300 Had NO A/C?…..? MOPAR EXPERTS. , HELP,ME here!! ))….
I had white 62 New Yorker. Had a 383 c.i. engine. I was disappointed you did not include that stat, since all car guys ask that question first.
This 300G has a 413 ci.
This car screams Donald
Bucket list car for me too.
This was fun t watch! I am curious how you liked having the rear-view mirror set so low down on the dish board? It seems the view out the back could be easily blocked.
I never knew that about the parking gear law. Strikes me as odd that they had to give up the pushbutton automatic but could, presumably, keep the manual gearbox which also wouldn't have had a parking gear.
Still, this is such a fine car that I can't imagine loosing the pushbuttons on later ones made driving them any less of an experience.
Josh . You can stick a manual in gear but once the engine is off in an auto it won't hold the car . .....still bizarre though ! Head of Ford probably passed that through the law courts ! 😂😂😂😂
@@johndavey72 so could you not turn these Chrysler's engines off with the automatic in Drive or Reverse, only in Neutral? Maybe I misunderstand the operation of torque converter automatics! - I've never owned a car with an auto transmission. Would turning the engine off and leaving it in Reverse not hold the car, as it would with a manual transmission?
listen to how quiet this car is going down the road....last year i found a 300 4dr. with a std. trans...it had a for sale sighn on it....but no info....i didnt have the time to track down the owner.....soon im gonna go back out there with time and see what i can do
6.00 a gallon you better have deep pockets to drive it across the country or a weight scale!
0:21 is that SUV going down the road with its hood up?
Looks parked to me.
Speaking of oddities related to Dodge- Chrysler- Plymouth...up until 67 or 68 all driver side lug nuts were left hand thread...this coming from a Mopar guy!
Up until 1970. My '70 300 convertible has left hand lugs.
@@JamesSmith-wp4um Dodge Chrysler Plymouth were a very diversified company and some trends hung around with lesser affiliates longer than others, case in point I owned a 71 Dodge Polaris with the 383 and the select- a -shift push button tranny
W0w
The 392 engine made these the king of the road until the GTO came out. It's a shame they were rust buckets...
This has the 413.
DONALD ! As a Music Lover, I insist. STOP IT.
My Uncle Harold drove Chryslers exclusively because he thought they had the best engineering. They were always black and he would wash them with kerosine.
That's interesting! A detailing secret from back in the day. Here's another fun fact, we went to the moon on kerosene power. Yes, the main stages of the Saurn V rocket were fueled by kerosene, then upper stages were liquid hydrogen I think, liquid oxygen for all stages. This car was quite a rocket too back in the day!
Anyway, off topic but the kerosene bath for the car got me going, Hope he did not smoke!!
Worst intro music on YT. Beautiful car, well idolized.
Donald, please do not sing.
