I checked on this site http://www.6066gmcguy.org and it's looking like a 1963.

Yep, the "G" means it's a 63.

Looks like a fun project! The 63's are my favorite because you still have the wrap around windshield but you get the good suspension thats easier to drop!
Keep us posted on your progress!

Mine had clear lenses. Don't know if it is because it was a very early 63 or they were just swapped out over the years.

I sure do like the '63's quite a bit....
That thing sure will look pretty when you get her up to speed.

Heck, it looks pretty darn good right now.

How's the inside...?
