Re: 63 parts truck maybe not!
I say rebuild it if the body and frame are good. With all the aftermarket parts you can replace what is missing. It seems to be harder to find these trucks now. So if you have one in good shape I say find a way to keep it.

Re: 63 parts truck maybe not!
I'd sell it intact before I'd scrap it. Those are so hard to find now I'd want to build it. That and 63's are my favorite of all the 60-66 Chevy's.
