I drove the very first in 55 2 four Heni it was a heavy car i raced a 57 Chevy and took him hit the brakes lost control but i saved it the brakes weren't strong enough in those days but the 57 300 c was my favorite and later i bought 426 hemi GTX talk about eating gas but fun
These 57 300C's would eat any Chevy for lunch. My father worked for a lady that was a screen writer in Hollywood.One day she said with all the trips she had made from the east coast she had never driven across the country.So she picked up the phone to call her friend Jack Chrysler.She said Jack I need a car to drive from Hollywood back home.He said no problem Jane there will be a new car waiting for you when you get there.A new 57 300 convertible was waiting at the airport when she got there. Nothing like that car standing up like a cat when you opened that 2nd 4 barrel carb.
Oh man, i had one just like it in the sixties. That thing would smoke most muscle cars. Thanks for the video.
