This has to be one of the worst names for a car ever.

Cool looking though... I love the frameless "B" pillar.

 Man, I love these older Mopar beauties.. This was essentially a Royal Lancer coupe...with the 318 and torqueflite transmission, it ate up many competitors...The '55 Chrysler was the original 300 (no letter designation) with a slanted "300" on the gas cap cover...The '56 was the 300B
  A lot of State Troopers adopted 300's as they were fast and safe(relatively)...not to mention intimidating...These 300 years were the glory days, I think, for Chrysler Corp.. Thanks brother, for a nice article....Jack
