The red car on the left looks like a 1960/1961 Chrysler but I can't see enough to be sure. |

I would say its a 61 Chrysler 300G looking at the tail lights but its not sharp enough to be sure. 60 Cadillac behind it, |

You are correct Richard of C. It's a 61 300G. Nice ride ![]() |

I know, sorry, but my eye was drawn to the red one ![]() -- Last edit: 2007-02-18 23:22:41 |

The white one is a 1960 Cadillac. Either a series 62 coupe or a Coupe de Ville. -- Last edit: 2007-02-18 23:29:57 |

This means that the pic we've identified as a 1960 Chrysler 300F is actually a 300G. |

was'nt the only difference between the 300G and the 300F the drivetrain?? I know the 300G came with the 413 wedge motor with dual quads on a crossram. I believe the 300F came with the 361 |

The roofline "the distance between the A and C pillar" appears to be shorter than a De Ville or a Series 63 on this Cadillac, making it a rare Series 64 Eldorado Seville. Im going to let MRCadillac chime in on this one, because Im not 100% sure... ![]() -- Last edit: 2007-02-19 05:10:42 |

The 60 Chrysler 300F had a different shaped grill than the 61, and the tailights were up in the end of the fin, boomerang shaped and in 61 the tail lights were moved down to just above the bumper in the rear corner of the fenders in a chrome surround and the space at the end of the fin in 61 was filled with a chrome bit and a back up light. The drive train was the same for both years |

The 61 Chrysler also had the dual headlights on a slant. |

Back to the Cadillac (object of this post). It's definitely NOT an "Eldorado Seville" (Firebird86) owing to the presence of the lateral trim spear, clearly visible on the open door. The picture is too fuzzy to distinguish between the "Series 62" coupe and the more luxurious "Coupe de Ville", so for now it's just a "1960 Cadillac coupe." |

The red car on the left is a 1961 Chrysler 300 G. |

The image isn't so blurry we wouldn't be able to spot the presence of the Series 62 badge behind the headlight; it's a Coupe DeVille. |
