my plan is to get it running,clean it up,drive for awhile,show it as a survivor at local shows and let the next owner deal with paint and top.Interior is unbelievable.Padded dash with no cracks,deluxe wheel with a couple in the hub and one in the clear.Tom

Interior
For a 4 cylinder manual transmission car, it has the most deluxe interior I have seen. And the interior looks to be in excellent condition. Good score, Tom.

Round taillight vert is somewhat rare to begin with. Add black with tri-blue interior, stick and survivor status -- fugetaboutit!

Nice find.
Just goes to show not all Northern Cars are rust buckets. Can't say I've seen a floor shift '63. Is that the correct shifter?

Padded dash, custom wheel -- correct options for the car and unusual for a 1bbl 195 car. Manual choke is standard on stick cars. Shift knob should be round with standard 3 spd H pattern. Will you pull PHS on it, Tom?

Dave,there is a plain blk shift knob in the glove box.The handle is somekind of auto shifter.I might pull the PHS just for history.All 61-63 stick shift cars are floor shifters as far as I know.Tom

Very cool indeed.
Ever since I put my buddies '63 back together I've really become fond of that body style. How bad is the 1/4?

shifter
I think manual transmissionTempests came with a painted shift lever and plain black knob, while manual transmission Lemans came with a chrome shift lever and white knob. Can anyone shed some light on this?
