The interesting thing with this car it was delivered to the factory so it has some odd history but we will never know. A guy told me that used to work there said the cars went into a pool when they could use them whenever they want. But he said this car was too nice for that to be its case. It was at the end of the model year so that rules it out as a magazine test car.

It is a rare car but that also makes it hard to find parts. They built around 320 and there's 130 in the registry. 32 of them are black, and this car has a white convertible top which is really unusual. It might end up being one of 10 left. So I just wish someone had done it beside me it's not like working on a Camaro. 1961 Chrysler 300G
