The real car was always a favorite of mine, under my point of view, the nicest among all the 'Letter Series'. I Think GLM made a good job on it...

I am very pleased with mine. I wasn't sure about the color on yours, so I went with the black and the white versions instead. The model overall is very nice, way better than the prototype photos that were going about.

The white one was not available in the shops I usually purchase my models and black seemed to me a little boring. I don't know if the color is original or custom, but as I found pics of 1/1 painted in this shade... and, of course, I liked this color.

Cheers

It looks like a great color. I found one and ordered it. When it comes to the Chrysler 300, I am more of a traditional color guy. I love it in black, red & white. The style of the original years looks best in these colors, my opinion of course. From 1955-1960, the 300 style is iconic and really any model in any color is a special thing to have.
