300
SERIES - (V-8)
- The Windsor name was dropped to make room for a Sport Series
300 line. Confusion resulted from this marketing move as buyers
associated the 300 name with high-performance and high cost. The
exterior appearance of the hardtop (two-door) and the convertible
were identical to the letter series 300H save for hubcaps, tires
and a tiny 'H' on the rear deck. A four-door hardtop had never
before been offered in the letter-series 300 lineup. Even the
grille, medallions and side trim were distinguishable at first
glance from the higher priced, performance oriented 300H. The
Sport Series 300 interiors were upgraded versions of the low-line
Newport series.
