1963 swc
Hi Syd,
On the Minneapolis Craigslist is a 1963 SWC saddle exterior with saddle interior. Its a 340 with a 4 speed. Looks real nice. The serial number is 30837S111628. That's all I know the car is currently for sale.

I've asked before, where are all the Daytona Blue cars? But the numbers for them have slowly increased in my file to close the gap somewhat. The term 'resale red' speaks for itself and I learned early on the try and verify Red cars whenever possible.
Saddle Tan remains the lowest paint total in my file followed by Silver Blue.

Just there for today, so won't get a chance to check. It's going across the block Saturday, maybe you can check the website. There were probably half a dozen splits there, just as many 63 verts as well. Didnt see any saddle.
No dogs in this kennel!

I thought it was weird that a previous owner shaved the door handles but not the side mirror. Thanks for taking care of that, either way I think you have a really nice car, the blue was a good choice!
If you want to tone it down, AIR you can get large diameter polished aluminum wheels that look like original C2 hubcaps, just choose a year.

Nice custom split you guys have! I have many modified cars recorded in my file.
Would you mind telling me what your serial number and trim tag data is please?
Thanks!

Hi Dave,
I have no idea how many remain or are registered but I have kinda kept track for over 15 yrs.
Including some 63's that were recorded prior to me and some cars recorded by others, and also including some that were wrecked or stolen etc. over the yrs, I've listed over 3,100 cars in my '63 file.
Of the approximate 3,100 '63 total, 1770 are split windows.
I'd guess that a good number survive, at the very least double that figure and most probably quite a bit higher.
I would love to hear from '63 owners who would contribute to this file.

Hey Syd, do you have 102187 in your list, SWC red on black, it's in my garage for an engine swap and engine compartment dress up. owner is sure it was a 340hp car but had a 350 in it when he bought it. We do not have the original engine but are building a period correct 327 to go back in.

Engine Number / Vin Number Stamp on a '63 SW
Can someone tell me or send me a picture of where to find the Engine Number / Vin Number Stamp on a '63 SW? It is an original SW and we have been asked to send a picture of the Engine Number/Vin Number where it is stamped on the engine block and can't seem to find it.
