The first postwar production car to produce 300 hp. the C-300 took the automotive world by storm. winning 18 NASCAR races in 1955. Exclusive and expensive when new and with a base price of $4. 09. only 1. 25 C-300s were built.

The extremely rare ($2. 00. 00) Bat Wing Air Cleaner comes fitted with the car. The Exterior Paint is in very nice shape. not show quality of course. but extremely presentable with only a few minor blemishes. The Exterior trim. chrome. and stainless is all very nice and has a good shine. some minor imperfections on a few pieces but negligible. The body is nice a straight . a few waves in the lower rockers but barely noticeable. The Correct Wire Wheels really set it off on brand new Coker Wide White Tires.

With Power Steering and Brakes it drives out nice down the road and handles very well. This Rare C-300 Hemi is one to tuck away as they are getting impossible to find and have a great history as described below. The car's "Forward Look" styling can be attributed as much to the Chrysler parts bin as designer Virgil Exner. The front clip. including the grille. was taken from the Imperial of the same year. but the rest of the car did not look like an Imperial. The midsection was from a New Yorker hardtop. with a Windsor rear quarter. Exner also included base-model Chrysler bumpers and removed many exterior elements such as back-up lights. hood ornament. side trim. and exterior mirrors. An electric clock and two-speed windshield wipers were standard. There were few options available including selection of three exterior colors (red. white and black) and only one color of tan leather interior. This first of the letter series cars did not bear a letter. but can retroactively be considered the '300A'. The 'C-' designation was applied to all Chrysler models; however for marketing purposes the numerical series skipped more than 225 numbers forward in sequence in order to further reinforce the 300's bhp rating. The 300 originally stood for the 300 hp (220 kW) engine. The C-300 was really a racecar aimed at the NASCAR circuits that was sold for the road for homologation purposes. with Chrysler's most powerful engine. the 331 cu in (5. 4 L) FirePower "Hemi" V8. due to the hemisperic shape of the combustion chambers. fitted with twin 4-barrel carburetors. a race-profiled camshaft setup. solid valve lifters. stiffer suspension. and a performance exhaust system. By 1956 this would be the first American production car to top 355 hp (265 kW). and the letter series was for many years the most powerful car produced in the United States. Measured at 127. 58 mph (205. 32 km/h) in the Flying Mile. and doing well in NASCAR. the C-300 aroused interest that was not reflected in its modest sales figure of 1. 25. When the C300 competed in NASCAR. it was painted to advertise that it was the "world's fastest stock car".
