The Chrysler 300 Non-Letter Series was introduced for the 1962 model year. The 300 Non-Letter Series was introduced as a lower priced alternative to the flagship 300 Letter Series. The Non-Letter series was offered in two or four door hardtop and convertible body styles, and was considered to be a higher end muscle car. The Chrysler 300 Non-Letter Series was built in three main generations: 1st Gen (1962-1964), 2nd Gen (1965-1968), and 3rd Gen (1969-1971). Production of the 300 Non-Letter Series ended in 1971, but the 300 name featured for an option package on the 1979 Chrysler Cordoba.
