Hi I’m the owner contact me if you need more details or anything
Just an FYI, it appears to be a Newport rather than a 300 model.
Having low miles is usually a plus relative to the drivetrain.
Good luck with the sale and I hope it finds a good home.

It's a Canadian 300.....not Newport...

Did Canadian 300s not have the headlight covers? And the quarter emblems look like Windsor to me.
the canadian 300 sedan was an entry level car, it wasnt the fancier 6 window sedan sold in the states. basically it was a trim package.
its a windsor with windsor / newport bench seats with 300 badges and interior door panels.
i think the 65 should have the 300 grille & glass headlight covers but i could be wrong...
this car looks like it has a windsor grille.
in 65 in canada it was sold as a saratoga 300 sedan, for 66 it was sold as a 300 only.
the 66 had the US style 300 front with turn signals in the outer bumper ends but the rear had newport style tail lights, not the wraparound US model ones.
if you ordered a coupe of convert or 4 dr htop then it was the same as US models

I was unaware of Chrysler renaming the models for Canada in 1965. Nonetheless, though, it appears the models were Windsor, Saratoga 300, and New Yorker. And the Saratoga 300 still looked like a Chrysler 300 in the U.S. So I would have to agree with 300rag and marko, that what is shown in the listing would correctly be described as a Windsor in Canada.
I still can't understand the motivation for Chrysler to sell rebranded models in Canada relative to the U.S. and even some models with mixed front and rear styling among the various brands in the same year compared to their offerings in the U.S.- and did this practice for quite a few years. It seemed like a big waste of money and resources to me.
Here is a link to a factory Canadian Chrysler brochure that highlights the details from an Ebay listing:

Thanks I guess they’re quite big though size 15
the more i look at the pics of the car the more i think it looks like a windsor with the windsor grille and lack of saratoga 300 side trim and 300 grille & covered headlights.....

I didn't make it past the overall condition to notice how it was badged.
For having zero info about its mechanical condition/drivability, + the condition that is visibly obvious (bad paint, torn seats-dashpad-doorpanels), $2000 is gonna need the right guy to come along.
