Also, the lower rocker trim is very different than production. There's no stainless surround around the exhaust tips. The fuel injection emblems are not in the correct placement for a production 63 as well. It's very possible that this was not a running, driving car.

----Wow,,, noticed two more things. The vent windows slant way in going from top to bottom than production, and I'm not sure but think that the central character line looks very odd from the gas lid to the rear edge...Bill S
