Will it sell this cheap?

1962 Chrysler 300 Two-Door Hardtop



Right now it's $10,750 with 5 hours to go.


It's not an HP 300, just a 383 to move all that car around.



It must have a reserve, right?

id say it depends on how bad someone wants it gone...it is a nice well loved example with wear which is nice to see

I'm not sure if they use reserves on BaT, but I believe the seller can opt not to sell if he doesn't think the bid went high enough. My friend's correspondence with the fella with the pink/black top Duster concluded with, "I'll keep it in mind if I decide not to sell the car." The car was over $40K at that point.

Yes they have reserves on BAT, you just don't know it until the end unless they put a note in the title "no reserve".

Reserve not met on 11/17/22 at $20,000

It's a pretty car, but I don't know that it warranted a heck of a lot more than the final bid... maybe $25K, though. The '62s just aren't as popular as the earlier models, possibly because that was the debut of the non-letter cars or maybe because of the amputated quarter panels. It was certainly the last decent-looking 300 until '66, whatever the case.

im probably one of the goofballs who actualy prefers them of the "big" cars of the 60s

I was thinking the same range. It looks like a nice car, but it's nothing really special so the price accords.

Me too. I really like the idea of a big comfy leather seats and a drivetrain that's a kick in the ass. But not enough to own one.

The push button auto on this car makes me shy about it. That's foreign territory to me.

You could change the transmission, but imagine a B&M ratchet shifter in there and say no.
