Chrysler 300c drop top???

[attym3]

I just passed what looked like a 300c convertible, did they make these or was it a custom? The roof looked a bit rough, and the whole vehicle was 'well chavved innit'

Never seen one myself, But it does sound tasteful.

Apart from the alloys it looks sort of ok .

^^^^^^

Now that looks a LOT nicer then the one I passed. So are you saying Crysler made these Zollar?

I think west coast customs made one for their TV show, however google does seem to throw up a few "official" looking ones but i can't say for certain.
After looking at google images for the last 5 minutes they are certaintly growing on me.

A lot of cars in america have these conversions, ive seen S-type jags and even Lexuses with them, theres a word for it, i think its french or german, like landau or something.

A bit late, but here is the offending vehicle.

This is why I asked if it was 'factory' as the roof looked a bit cut n shut.



Not sure whats going on with the rear lights.

Looking at the pics again I notice it is also a 4 door, how strange.

[ZOLLAR]

God that is awful, did you get the Reg of it?.

[attym3]

Tastefull thing isn't it Zollar?

Here is the plate, 'chav' of course.

Must be a custom job, reg search brings back 07 plate saloon, 3518 cc V6.
The ones on google image looked quite nice that one isn't

probably just a vinyl roof over the metal original. I think it looks terrible and I have a 300.

I've seen two different 300C 'Convertibles' up close in London.

Both looked very much like this one and, amazingly - the roof is stuck over the top of the tin top.

It's not a convertible at all, just looks like one with the roof up.

Look at the side pic of this car - the front window frame appears to just carry on up into the roof - how would that work?

My guess is that this is another faker.

Utterly baffling.

are you serious?, that is the most bizzare thing to do to a car!.

Think back to the 70's and you will remember this on crap cars. Not convinced myself

Fvrcking hell, that is a physical expression of mental illness!

My mate has one if these and I must admit that they are a guilty pleasure, got to be totally standard though. They are very comfy to be carted around in, loads of room in the back.
