'63 Grand Prix 389/4-sp, Very Cool Orig Paint PNW Car
 
I really like the look of this car - looks super clean from having lived in the Pacific Northwest. The sleeper appeal of having a built 455 and retaining the original engine (included in the auction) is interesting. I'll bet it's fun to drive.

I like that one.

I like it, too.

I keep fighting the urge to convert mine to a 4 speed. I'd love to, but Woodward Dream Cruise with a manual trans is murder. Sometimes it's nice to have an automatic.

I just can't get past that exterior color. It always reminds me a of a casket. I don't suppose I need to explain why I have an aversion to that.

Lastly, regarding the sellers speculation about the original engine perhaps being a Tri Power: the "06B" engine is the standard 389 4 bbl combination, with HD clutch.

Love the 60’s Ponchos. A buddy, RIP, had Mickey Lolich’s 62 GP.

Repaint it Corvette Bronze and it would really pop.
