Beautiful car, Wilbur. In the late '60's our home room and biology teacher at high school, had around a '66 (maybe '65 or '67) Chrysler 300 with the 440 V8. We were impressed.
Would be a 66 or 67. This is 66 Chrysler 300. 66 was the first year for the 440 and it was in the full size cars only.
Must of been the '66 as he talked about having the 440 V8. Which impressed us as the Plymouth GTX used the 440, although the 375 hp version.
The TNT was 365 HP in 66 and 375 in 67 and later. Different exhaust manifolds. Engines designated, TNT (Chrysler) Magnum (Dodge) and Commando (Plymouth) were all the the same HP rating.
