Re: my free '63

Thanks!
Well i was planning on making it a daily driver but considering it is our 6th vehicle i think im just going to get it road worthy and sell it. After looking at all of the ones on here i dont want to but feeding the family is more important than all of these toys... i suppose. haha

My goodness. You have it all wrong. Thats a long bed and a small back window. The whole spiel about 63s is also completely wrong as well. The fact is that 456s are better.

Now that is a great score. Doesnt get better than free.

haha seems i struck a nerve well i will say one thing, the gmcs are 2nd on my list because they have a neat look to them.....imo i think that the grille on the 456 chevys is awful..not to bash on any one just my opinion...aslo the windshield and dash imo is very stylish..

Girl friends uncle. lucky? Must be his way of saying welcome to the family.

Welcome... If you're not careful, you'll spend more time looking around on this site than you do working on your truck. A lot of great info here and a bunch of nuts.. Make sure you post plenty of pictures, if not you'll hear about it...

Re: my free '63

Thanks guys. and it is a long bed small window.
I really wish i could keep it but there are some things i have to do to it before i can put it up for sale so if i dont get it done before my girlfriend starts her job then maybe ill get to keep it. but then again she wants me working on her car (68 camaro) and not on this truck LOL

Nice score and welcome to the forums from Kansas City, KS.

Beg the girl friend to keep the truck, so you can take a break from working on her '68 Camaro, once in a while.
