Two for one today from the Chrysler family of fine cars. For 1958, Chrysler made some very minor styling changes to their top of line New Yorker. Danbury Mint captured all the class and luxury the New Yorker had to offer perfectly in this model. She is definitely a beauty in her Garnet Maroon coat.

If you wanted something a bit sportier, Chrysler offered an option for you in the 300D, and DM brought that model to us in fine form as well. This one is dressed in Matador Red.

Incredible photos of two incredible models from DM.  I have both and love both.  The only thing I don't care for is the smaller taillights.  In my opinion, the taillights on the previous '57 and the forthcoming '60 Chryslers, are the two most beautiful fins of any car during the fin era.
