Chrysler described the 300E as “The International Classic That’s Made in America.” It was the final year of the Exner bodystyle first introduced in 1957, albeit with minor trim and detail changes. New underhood was a 413-cid “Golden Lion” dual-quad V-8 with wedge-shaped combustion chambers and hydraulic valve lifters that was lighter in weight by 101 pounds and more cost-effective to build than the previous Hemi. The new engine produced 380-hp giving Chrysler claim to America’s most powerful production car. Sales totaled just 690 units; 550 hardtop coupes and 140 convertibles, adding to their desirability today.
