Engine appears to be from a 63 ???

probably just the air cleaner and valve covers for bling

Incorrect radiator, inner fender seals not tucked in looks goofy. Hood hinges wrong color, wrong generator, wrong radiator cap, wrong tachometer. Not to mention the wrong valve covers and air cleaner. No proof of an original 409/409 car. Numbers anybody? For a car that was obviously restored to look original it's amazing how high the price went considering the many incorrect parts that were used. Although I am happy the car brought big money and early 60's Chevrolets continue to be popular among today's buyers, may they be young or old, It saddens me that they have not become educated on what is original and what's not which to me is an important part of this hobby/investment.
