Hi guys, i just joined this site and thought i would show off my restoration project as of so far. My grandfather bought this car NEW in 1963 and he loved it so much it is the only car he always kept. When he past away in 2007, i purchased the car from my grandma and i restored it. I have done most of the work myself aside from the technical stuff like interior, top, paint. View attachment bb.jpg

Looks fantastic!! I hope my '66 Valiant looks as good as yours when I'm done.
 
That's the original bag that came with the car, i want to replace it but Chrysler obsolite parts want $175 for it. So it has not got replaced yet.
 
63's used that bag style for the washer bottle. Very beautiful convertible! Love the color choice, is it Chrysler PP1?
 
yes the bags were on 63's my valiant didnt even have one just the wires sitting on the same side as his bag, the bags are cool and rare i beleive i have only seen a few on cars


your 63 is a beutiful specimen and u should be proud of her
 
yes she is pp1. I like the bag it is very unique when i take it to car shows. I'm going to a show this weekend that i have been waiting 5 years to go to. It is the last car show my grandpa took the car to and won a trophy at. But that was before it was like it is now.
 
Hey dude! Cool!....you found FABO! I'm the guy at the Oak Hills H.S. car show who toldya about it! This place will overload your brain with A-body knowledge. Enjoy!
