Exactly. I was not sure I'd buy it until yesterday morning after looking it over. Frankie's point is well taken, and I would say it was more a case of "reasonable precautions" than outright paranoia.
My first C-2 was a '67 with Rally's, and my '63 had plain steel wheels with no covers IIRC. If you say these are 63's I won't argue, I'm still real new to the nuances of 64's. What you see in the pic was what was on all 4 corners.

Really? I have never bought a car and not had insurance in place for the transport home. I assumed that was SOP. I call my agent and tell her what I’m up to and she tells me I’m covered for 30 days.
Anyway, CONGRATS on the cool buy RRman! Have a ball with it !

This looks like a nice project that fits perfect with your rebuild plans. When you're done you will have great driver that you can enjoy. Good luck going forward. Keep the updates coming.

If I read the trim tag right this is a June 64 build. One deviation from original I do plan is '67 type rally wheels, I like the looks of those better than what came with it.

Yeah, that did not come across quite as I intended, and no offense meant to any n00bs. You may ask me any questions you wish, but be warned there is far more I DON'T know than what I DO. I already got an education on wheel covers and I'm sure there will be more things as we go along!
It looks nice. We are both starting off with similar goals. Good luck. I have yet to find a bolt that doesn’t want to fight even after days of PB Blaster.
No offense taken as I knew you were joking. I was just kidding with you. One thing I have learned about forums is that statement/jokes are sometimes taken the wrong way because the reader cannot hear the inflections as if it were an oral statement. Moderating a forum is tough job. If you over moderate it's a boring place. If you under moderate it becomes a miserable place. From what I have read here I believe the Mods are doing a good job and I would like to thank them. Anyway, looking forward to your rebuild and your jokes.

Here you go Don, just what the Dr. ordered... a '64 convertible with the '67 rally's...
