Lets Play A Game: Last Of The Convertibles

[ceebuddy]

The second, though, has had some stripes and graphics added...

...and a 1971 Chrysler 300 grille.

 

[70 Sport Suburban]

Those stripes are 71 GT kit.

Those stripes are 71 GT kit.

And are at least $500.00..... and in my personal opinion look horrible on that car

#2 looks like a super-rare S/27 GT model with base 383 engine option. Haven't seen one of those in years. Most had the 440 Hemi.

At least the 300 front end and the Plymouth stripes are for the same year (1971), isn't that a plus? Regardless of the incorrect nature of the job, and as atypical of my preferences as this statement may sound: I think the car looks good.

IMHO.... I actually like the stripe, although if it were about 6" longer, it would be a lot better. The grille looks good too.

Loose the 383 callout on the hood and the "GT" tag on the rear quarter. Maybe paint the wheels argent and add a trim ring, flip the white letters in and I'd drive it.

No.
I mocked all of it as the 383 decal and GT went overboard, esp on a convertible IMO. And I now see it looks like GT stripes on the hood?

I'm with @Big_John - his mild changes would've made it work well.

Although, I'd prefer the Nupe grill to teh 71 hideaways. I like the 69-70 version better with the TS lights bookending the grille.

I didn't spot those either. They need to go.

 

[commando1]

Needs hood scoops.

 

[Big_John]

Needs hood scoops.

As long as it's as obnoxious as possible.

 

[Samplingman]

Needs hood scoops.

I agree.

 

[marko]

at least those stripes help illustrate how much longer the chrysler is than the plymouth !

 

[Snotty]

Not as horrible as those poverty caps.

 

[ayilar]

I agree.

Do you have the tag?

Tags, is that all you think about?

Sorry, no the pic was swiped from the web.

Well, it is part of what this thread is about. Is it not?

Yes, and your persistence makes it better for it.

I think this might be a new one for the list. (Although I thought that on the last one and somehow missed it in my VIN search LOL) CM27T0C106918 SBD:828 VON(?):000856!

 

[Carona]

It was an original Citron Gold, repainted Crimson-looking red. Guy bought it as a roller last spring (engine put in a Challenger by previous owner).

I assume that my 70 Conv. was created on August View attachment 40035

I would guess that is the prior August and not August of model year
