How Rare is 63 Power Bench seat and tilt wheel?
- Thread starter DonSSDD
- Start date
What is it ,a four door or what??? Did you get it already .
Is the 64 floor shift column a tilt as well? The floor shift tilt columns are in more demand.
I put a 63 Chev 4 speed column in my 63.
Its a 54000 mile convertible, I found a build sheet in the back seat for the parts car. It has convertible rot, rusted out are the rockers, floor, trunk, wheel wells, rear quarters, its basically completely rotted on the bottom from the door posts back, but I think the doors are good, the hood and trunk lid is good, the convertible top frame is mint. The rear bumper passenger side bracket is rusted completely off with a hole in the bumper you can put your hand through,iIt looks like electrolysis. The hubcaps are dent free, the heater blower works, the 2 speed wipers work, the interior has one split seam in the back seat, the padded dash has no cracks. The glass is all good, but some rust on the chrome strips on the glass. The hood springs work. The cold and hot light come on with the key, the amp gauge seems to work.
From the build sheet, its a 283 2 barrel powerglide, PS, PB, tinted windshield, seat belts, power top, low D note horn, white walls, luggage liner(?), the tilt wheel and power seat. The frame looks good and it has a very new single exhaust, brakes seem to work.
The motor is not seized but the starter won't spin over, the 2 barrel leaks when I poured gas in it to try to start it. It "looks" like it should start, it was low on anti freeze but I don't see any leaks, the top rad hose has paper stickers on it.
I got it off a body shop, don't know the story on the car but they had taken it apart. No title.

I always thought that too but there are way more low riders being built and they all run automatics.
Here's one for sale, $750. Wow, you were right Phil.

Guess they will have that for sale a long time. You can buy a ididit chrome floor shift tilt new for 63'64 Impala $626.00 shipped with a warranty and better built .Why would anyone pay a $1000.00 for a used ,needing rebuilt column. Not original gm, would not bother me.
automatics with console as in SS

Many, if not most low riders come from bombs with 3 on the tree so you don't know what you say grasshopper.
