I like the '63's with original KO wheels and two bar spinners.

I love it.

Then again, I have Pontiac Rally I wheels on my '63 Lemans (not available until '65).

----I'm not knocking KO's as I have three sets (two NOS), but like to see a 63 as it was produced. Plus, I have only one Corvette they would be correct for. Original KO's are, to me, one of the most beautiful wheels ever designed!.....Bill S
