It was a high-performance variant of the luxury 300, built with the input of aftermarket parts manufacturer Hurst Performance. The Hurst 300s were all 2-door and shared a white and gold paint scheme similar to the Oldsmobile and Pontiac Hurst models of the day. Specifically, the Hurst 300 paint scheme consisted of Code EW1 Spinnaker White (cataloged Chrysler color) and Sauterne Poly (cataloged Cadillac color). The scooped hood and trunklid (with a molded spoiler) are both fiberglass. All Hurst 300s had saddle tan leather interiors that were straight out of the Imperial and could be had with column- or console-mounted 727 Torqueflite automatics. All came with the 375 HP 440 cu in (7.2 L) 4-barrel TNT V8 engine. written by Tony Rinaldi and Karl Pippart
