300
SERIES - (V-8)
- A star-shaped emblem continued to be used on the blackedout
grille bars as on the previous Chrysler 300 Series. Headlamps
were set within the outlined grille and were covered by a unique
glass shield. Lower body trim differed from the letter Series
300, as it had three uniquely stamped imprints at the forward
edge of the trim, behind the wheelhouse opening. The interiors of
the non-letter 300 Series were upgraded over the Newport
versions. The four-door sedan found in the 300 Series was the
six-window version.
