The 1961 Chrysler 300G was the final model of the early “letter series” Chryslers to feature the dramatic tailfins and bold styling of Virgil Exner’s “Forward Look” design era. As a high-performance luxury coupe, the 300G combined sophisticated engineering with striking looks, featuring canted headlights, a wide grille, and a sculpted rear with large fins. Under the hood, it was powered by a 413 cubic inch Golden Lion V8 engine with “ram induction” technology, producing up to 400 horsepower—an impressive figure for the time. Inside, the 300G boasted a driver-focused cockpit with luxurious touches like leather bucket seats, a full-length center console, and advanced features including power accessories. It was a car that offered both speed and sophistication, making it one of the most desirable American grand tourers of the early 1960s. Today, the 1961 Chrysler 300G is highly sought after by collectors for its rarity, bold design, and performance heritage.
