PATINA 63 stepside project
 

Hi here are some pics of my 63 stepside project

On its way to the port of LA for its boat ride home

Re: PATINA 63 stepside project
 

I plan on keeping the original paint
I have a cpp grand slam kit for it with a 6 lug disc brake front end
It seems to have a later 250 inline 6 that i will rebuild

Re: PATINA 63 stepside project
 

looks to be a nice project and it has a killer step-bumper. good luck and don't forget, tons of pics...

Nice patina!!!

Nice project!!!! Glad your keeping the 6 banger! :metal:

Try to load up with any parts that you think you may need later.
I am sure it is easier to buy here and you are already shipping.
Looks like a decent start.

Cheap and simple, give her the mascara treatment on the headlight bezels. Only 63 painted grills had this detail.
