I have pics of the 63 reinforcement rod at home if nobody else has it. My May 63! car has that piece.

The door itself is also different between early and late cars.
Early cars use the "keyhole" lock which is recessed into the door.
Later cars use the half dollar sized bezel.
Here's a pic of an early door with the lock recessed into the keyhole-like depression.
(forget/disregard the extra rivets)

Don't people believe in epoxy any more ?
My glove box got a 'face lift' 14 months ago..
Also the back of the door is not painted - natural surface -- I had to strip mine...

The brace connecting the glovebox frame to the Z bar is different. I think the 64-67 has a half moon cutout and the bolt pattern is slightly different.
You can see the cutout on this brace and can tell the bolt spacing is slightly closer on the cutout side.
