Rust free 63 chevy shortwide

Just picked this up today. Thanks Justin(jwalk) for the heads up!!!!! I haven't been able to find any rust yet.... Runs and drives great. Plan is to drive it and enjoy it as is while I build a chassis with pb components, accuair, and an ls engine. Will start a build thread once I get some progress going.

Re: Rust free 63 chevy shortwide

yes, you did score big. 63 is probably my favorite year of the 60-66's - one off grille, knee-knocker cab and wraparound windshield still, yet with the more modern front suspension - bye bye torsion bars. Congrats - that is one gorgeous truck you have there. Will look good no matter what you end up doing with it, even if that ends up being nothing at all.
