plymouthcranbrook Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 One of these with a 3 speed and I believe a 383 languished on E-Bay for a long time and then disappeared. I expect a hard sell unless you really want one. Especially since it is no longer close to stock power wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alsancle Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Three speed stick on the floor is cool. Three on the tree not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The correct wheel covers might help facilitate a sale, or maybe period mags of some sort. Now, if I buy it and add $10K in body work and paint, will it be worth $20K?

But swap in a 440, a set of steel Mopar patrol wheels, meaty treads and dog-dish hubcaps...have a 'sleeper' to surprise the unsuspecting...

StillOutThere Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Chrysler built ONE 300J manual transmission car. Had short ram intake. This car could be a candidate for a clone. Would be a long time finding another manual '63 Chrysler I do believe. The 4-2peed arrived in '64. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Just perusing all the treasures available on the Not Mine Forums today, I'm looking at this 63 Chrysler Newport hardtop "project" car that needs cosmetics for $10K and closeby is a silver 67 Imperial convert offered at $14.5K. I'm not really a Mopar person but deciding between the two would be a no brainer for me.......I'd be riding off into the sunset driving that 440 with the top down enjoying the rest of the summer!
