That car will sell for over $30,000 for just the parts easy, anybody that knows Split Window parts will understand. There’s five days left on the auction I am going to keep my eyes open on this one.

It's a good, honest car with nice patina. I'd get it running and drive it as it is

Maybe that cat with the blue "63" (65/66) from a few weeks back can buy this one for the vin and rear window bits so he can have another go at BAT with another "Restomod"?

Wonder how the train engine looked?

I don't think it's been rolled, looks like it slid the right side into a power pole. But there's damage almost all the way around so who knows....

With a clean title it's hard to believe that VIN is not going to be resurrected some how some way.
If triple black can be saved so can this. A lot of work and a lot of money not to mention a lot of time.

Looking at the interior pics, I noticed some type of buttons or plugs in the dash where the AC controls would be.....never saw that on a non AC car before

I don't know much about 63's, but the first thing I noticed was that the rear window trim was there...

That got my attention also. There does not seem to be anything related to an A/C car.

Nothing $200,000 can't fix.
