Also new for 1963 was the introduction of the alternator. Calendar year production on the 1963 models totaled 483,119. An astonishing 1/3 of every truck produced during this year was a Chevrolet.

A 1963 Chevrolet Pickup can be distinguished by the grille which had a more egg-crate appearance and headlamp bezels and Chevrolet lettering was accented in black. Parking light lenses where the same as previous years, except federal regulations now required the automotive industry to change from clear to amber.

the 250 eng was not introduced until 1966
