Looks absolutely georgous! Now that's a nice project. Original 327 motor? Options? AC? 4-Speed I hope.

And you are definitly not wrong to put this here, it's freak'in car wheels aren't they!

Optioned w/ 4-speed (M-20) $188, Spec Hi-perf engine (L-76) 327 -365 $129.15, Aux hardtop(c-07) $236.75, AM-FM w/power antenna (U-69) $203,
backup lamps (T-86) $10.80 Teakwood steering wheel (N-32) $48.15 , Knockoff wheels (P-48) $322.80
This is off of the original sticker that I have(very worn, though), Since it had knockoffs originally, and they were gone when I got the car, I replaced them
as original. But original Kelsy knockoffs go for $5000, so I got repros. Numbers matching engine and components and everything works.

I was 12 when this car hit the streets in '65, so I grew up with them also.
It was still a great guess, because the '63 also had the convertible version that looks exactly like my convertible from the back. And of course the split window coupe, as you mentioned.

I have to be careful moving my jack around as I have caused a couple small tears in the vinyl. The jack stands cause no damage
