I have owned this car for about 5 years and it was from hollywood LA.I had just got back from the USA where I had hopeing to find a 63 and this one turned up on ebay in brisbane.The guy had been looking for a mustang and could not find what he wanted so had got this at a swap meet instead. He got it back and did not realy want it and so he sold it to me.It is in very good condition with no dents or rust and inside its just as nice.I paid a lot for it as I wanted one for along time.

Default 63 Super Duty Tribute Comes Home

After, 4 1/2 long years of restoration, my 63 Lemans Super Duty Tribute came home today. 421 wth turbo 400 and 4.10 gears. Needs some final detailing.

Outstanding car, Gary. It is all worth it when 4.5 years of labor turns out so nice. Enjoy it, you will be the big dog this summer at the cruise-ins and car shows. I like your exhaust pipes!
