Default 63 Arrived Yesterday

I'll post more pics and details of the car later if anyone's interested.
It started snowing as I began taking a few phone pics.

Wow....what a great looking '63!

That looks to be just a teaser shot though. We need the entire story behind it, and of course, additional pics!

Welcome to the 63 club - I'm betting its Daytona Blue...
That color is sort of the chameleon of paints, masquerading as black in certain light...

First thing I look at on these cars in a rear photo is the fit at the top of the coupe door and how flat the rear window stainless lays at the inboard upper corners...

From the one picture - these look VERY nice indeed...

Congratulations. What a great looking car. Enjoy it while you can for the next couple of weeks before you put it away for the winter.

Thats does look nice from the teaser shot.

Bummer its starting to snow,and you will probaly be in snow and slushy road prison for several months, and you probably really want to drive it...

I recall in MT, even well after it stopped snowing, the snow plow piles would melt for weeks and keep the roads wet so every time you drove through the melt, you got dirty road spray on the car. That used to really aggravate me.

That car is the twin of the 63 that we drove for 31 years and sold in 2012, right down to the knockoffs!!

Beautiful car. Looks like a keeper.

More pics and details please!!!
